to an administration of the fullness of the times, to sum up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens, and the things on the earth, in him;
21

from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named,
9
Therefore God also highly exalted him, and gave to him the name which is above every name;
10
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, those on earth, and those under the earth,
11
and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written, which no one knows but he who receives it.
12
He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will go out from there no more. I will write on him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God, and my own new name.

Now when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.
9
They sang a new song, saying, "You are worthy to take the book, and to open its seals: for you were killed, and bought us for God with your blood, out of every tribe, language, people, and nation,
10
and made us kings and priests to our God, and we will reign on earth."
11
I saw, and I heard something like a voice of many angels around the throne, the living creatures, and the elders; and the number of them was ten thousands of ten thousands, and thousands of thousands;
12
saying with a loud voice, "Worthy is the Lamb who has been killed to receive the power, wealth, wisdom, strength, honor, glory, and blessing!"
13
I heard every created thing which is in heaven, on the earth, under the earth, on the sea, and everything in them, saying, "To him who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing, the honor, the glory, and the dominion, forever and ever! Amen! "
14
The four living creatures said, "Amen!" The elders fell down and worshiped.
4
I heard the number of those who were sealed, one hundred forty-four thousand, sealed out of every tribe of the children of Israel:
5
of the tribe of Judah were sealed twelve thousand, of the tribe of Reuben twelve thousand, of the tribe of Gad twelve thousand,
6
of the tribe of Asher twelve thousand, of the tribe of Naphtali twelve thousand, of the tribe of Manasseh twelve thousand,

11
All the angels were standing around the throne, the elders, and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before his throne, and worshiped God,
12
saying, "Amen! Blessing, glory, wisdom, thanksgiving, honor, power, and might, be to our God forever and ever! Amen."
L'apôtre fait un rapprochement de mots entre ce nom de Père (pater), et le mot de famille (patria), employé ailleurs dans le sens de tribu ou de descendance d'un père. (Luc 2.4 ; Actes 3.25) C'est du Père céleste que toute famille sur la terre et dans le ciel tire son nom (Grec : "est nommée d'après lui"), de même que les familles des hommes portent le nom de leur père.
L'apôtre désigne par ce terme des familles spirituelles, celle des anges, celle des Israélites fidèles, celle des Gentils appelés à la foi. Dieu s'attribue ce beau titre de Père, non seulement comme Créateur, mais surtout parce que ses vrais enfants sont "nés de lui," (Jean 1.12,13) par une naissance nouvelle, et qu'il a pour eux l'amour du plus tendre père.
Dans la pensée de l'apôtre, ce titre s'applique surtout à ses lecteurs convertis du paganisme, et doit leur inspirer le sentiment que Dieu ne fait point d'acception de personne à leur détriment ; c'est la pensée qui reparaît si souvent dans toute notre épître. (Voy. surtout Ephésiens 2.18,19)
- C'est devant ce Père que l'apôtre fléchit les genoux, c'est-à-dire prie pour ses frères, (Ephésiens 3.16-19) avec autant d'humilité que d'amour, faisant preuve du véritable esprit de prière.
