Abstract

This essay discusses the composition of Rev 14:1-15:8 by analysing recent research on this chapter in which the composition of this passage is evaluated. It then investigates the text and its constitutive parts by first looking at the outer frame on the singers of the new hymn (Rev 14:1-5 and 15:1-8), then at the first group of three angels (Rev 14:6-13) and finally at the second group of four angels (Rev 14:14-20). Not only the patterns within each of these sections, but also the links and patterns between sections and the passage as a whole are analysed. The implications of the careful composition for understanding the different sections are spelled out in the course of this discussion.
