- Title
WORTHY IS THE LAMB: THE NEW SONG IN REVELATION 5:9-10 IN RELATION TO ITS BACKGROUND.
- Authors
Jung-Chu Wu, Peter
- Abstract
The article presents the abstract of a dissertation on historical backgrounds in the Old Testament and in extra biblical writings that relate to the new song in the book of Revelation 5:9-10. The New Testament context of the new song was revealed through a literary analysis of Revelation 4-5. The study reveals that the song continues the tradition of singing a song in response to the salvific intervention of Jesus Christ. The Song of the Sea in Exodus 15:1-18 is the primary influence of the new song in the book of Revelation.
