The present section begins the epilogue to the Revelation Jesus Christ showed John. The body of that revelation has concluded with the four portraits of the church (Revelation 21:9–22:5), which in turn formed the antipode to the seven letters to the churches (Revelation 2:1–3:22). This post-portrait epilogue has echoes of the pre-letters prologue.
6 Et il me dit: Ces paroles sont certaines et véritables; et le Seigneur, le Dieu des esprits des prophètes, a envoyé son ange pour montrer à ses serviteurs les choses qui doivent arriver bientôt.
