Verse 1 is found in chapter 5 of Revelation. In the right hand of the one seated on the throne appears a scroll written on both sides and sealed with seven seals. The document represents a determined reality that no one can open, and the inability to find anyone worthy causes John to weep. Then one of the elders announces the Lion of the tribe of Judah and the Root of David as the conqueror. The messianic images of Genesis 49 and Isaiah 11 converge to identify Christ as heir to the royal promises.
