Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Revelation 14:20

_ _ without the city — Jerusalem. The scene of the blood-shedding of Christ and His people shall be also the scene of God’s vengeance on the Antichristian foe. Compare the “horsemen,” Revelation 9:16, Revelation 9:17.

_ _ blood — answering to the red wine. The slaughter of the apostates is what is here spoken of, not their eternal punishment.

_ _ even unto the horse bridles — of the avenging “armies of heaven.”

_ _ by the space of a thousand ... six hundred furlongs — literally, “a thousand six hundred furlongs off” [W. Kelly]. Sixteen hundred is a square number; four by four by one hundred. The four quarters, north, south, east, and west, of the Holy Land, or else of the world (the completeness and universality of the world-wide destruction being hereby indicated). It does not exactly answer to the length of Palestine as given by Jerome, one hundred sixty Roman miles. Bengel thinks the valley of Kedron, between Jerusalem and the Mount of Olives, is meant, the torrent in that valley being about to be discolored with blood to the extent of sixteen hundred furlongs. This view accords with Joel’s prophecy that the valley of Jehoshaphat is to be the scene of the overthrow of the Antichristian foes.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Revelation 14:13-20.

John Wesley's Explanatory Notes

Revelation 14:20

And the winepress was trodden — By the Son of God, Revelation 19:15. Without the city — Jerusalem. They to whom St. John writes, when a man said, "The city," immediately understood this. And blood came out of the winepress, even to the horses' bridles — So deep at its first flowing from the winepress! One thousand six hundred furlongs — So far! at least two hundred miles, through the whole land of Palestine.

Geneva Bible Translation Notes

Revelation 14:20

And the winepress was trodden without the city, (15) and blood came out of the winepress, even unto the horse bridles, by the space of a thousand [and] six hundred furlongs.

(15) That is, overflowed very deep, and very far and wide: the speech is exaggeration to signify the greatness of the slaughter. These are those pleasant fruits truly, of the contempt of Christ, and desiring of Antichrist rather than him, which the miserable, mad and blind world reaps at this time.
