Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

Verse 9 is found in chapter 3 of Revelation. Philadelphia is presented as a community with little strength that has nevertheless kept Christ’s word and not denied his name. The key of David expresses messianic authority and evokes the royal promise of Isaiah 22, while the open door communicates an opportunity that no one can shut. The church faces opposition but receives the promise of preservation and permanent belonging in God’s temple. The language of the new name of God, the name of the new Jerusalem, and the name of Christ emphasizes a transformed and enduring identity.

Siehe, ich werde geben aus des Satanas Schule, die da sagen, sie seien Juden, und sind's nicht, sondern lügen; siehe, ich will sie dazu bringen, daß sie kommen sollen und niederfallen zu deinen Füßen und erkennen, daß ich dich geliebt habe.
He aquí, yo doy de la sinagoga de Satanás, los que se dicen ser Judíos, y no lo son, mas mienten; he aquí, yo los constreñiré a que vengan y adoren delante de tus pies, y sepan que yo te he amado.
Voici, je te donne de ceux de la synagogue de Satan, qui se disent Juifs et ne le sont pas, mais qui mentent; voici, je les ferai venir, se prosterner à tes pieds, et connaître que je t'ai aimé.
Ecco, io riduco quei della sinagoga di Satana, che si dicono esser Giudei, e nol sono, anzi mentono, in tale stato, che farò che verranno, e s’inchineranno davanti a’ tuoi piedi, e conosceranno che io t’ho amato.
Eis que eu farei aos da sinagoga de Satanás, aos que se dizem judeus, e não são, mas mentem: eis que eu farei que venham, e adorem prostrados a teus pés, e saibam que eu te amo.
那屬撒但會堂的,自稱是 猶太 人,其實不是 猶太 人,而是說謊話的,我要使他們來到你腳前下拜,使他們知道我已經愛你了。
