The Marriage of the Lamb is a beautiful and fitting look at the wedding ceremony to come, when the Church of Jesus Christ, all the saints of all time, enter into the most special of relationships for eternity with their Redeemer, the very Lamb of God. The author exalts and explains God’s sovereign call to the marriage, the Church’s response, the marriage itself, the perfecting of the Church, and the love of the Lamb of God for His Bride. The Bride’s willing preparation, her separation unto holiness, and her white robes of righteousness unfold before us in splendor. The marriage of the Lamb is so gracious, so lovely and inviting, His people must love Him and follow Him with all their hearts as they look forward to that day. Extensive annotations have been added by Chapel Library to explain difficult or archaic words.
