ACC ~ Revelation 3 v4
GOD KNOWS HIS SHEEP BY NAME. BEDE: He did not say a “few,” but a “few names.” For he who knew Moses by name calls his own sheep by name and writes the names of his saints in heaven. EXPLANATION OF THE APOCALYPSE 3.4.
WALKING WITH THE LORD. APRINGIUS OF BEJA: Everyone who is not soiled with the filth of sin walks with the Lord in white, and he is made worthy so that he might follow the footsteps of the Lamb. TRACTATE ON THE APOCALYPSE 3.4.
SAINTS WALK IN THE PURITY OF THE BODY. OECUMENIUS: By the garments that have not been soiled he means the bodies of the saints, just as the patriarch Jacob said, “He will wash his robe in wine.” And Isaiah said much the same thing: “Why is your garment red as one who treads in the wine press, as of one who has completely trodden [the wine press].” And so the white garment signifies the purity of the body. COMMENTARY ON THE APOCALYPSE 3.1-6.
