Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Commentary

Revelation 19:9

_ _ He — God by His angel saith unto me.

_ _ called — effectually, not merely externally. The “unto,” or into,” seems to express this: not merely invited to (Greek,epi”), but called INTO, so as to be partakers of (Greek,eis”); compare 1 Corinthians 1:9.

_ _ marriage supperGreek, “the supper of the marriage.” Typified by the Lord’s Supper.

_ _ trueGreek, “genuine”; veritable sayings which shall surely be fulfilled, namely, all the previous revelations.

Matthew Henry's Commentary

See commentary on Revelation 19:5-10.
