「But one of the elders said to me, "Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals."」 Amen.
“The Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David” is Jesus. He was crucified, buried, and rose on the third day, so he conquered death. Therefore, he is the right person to be able to open the scroll, and Jesus is the one who can save us from the horrific events caused by opening it.
