Backside in Revelation 5:1?

Question

Revelation 5:1: And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

If "backside" is only used in Exodus and Revelation, and such things are "allegory" (Galatians 4), then are we talking law = holy sh*t?

Him that sat on the throne is like unto the Son of man: should repent: Numbers 23:19. Daniel qualifies, and so does Jesus, and so does John.

What comes out his mouth is notably a sharp twoedged sword. The word of God is "sharper than any twoededged sword": Hebrews 4:12. Allegory: Grace is smarter(sharper) than Matthew 22:36-40 law law and Romans 8:2 law vs law; which is divided, against itself.

Answer 1

if you study Jewish history, you will see that a title deed to a piece of property is an example of a document that has writing on both sides. Initially, the title deed would be written only on the smooth side and sealed with a single seal. But if the owner became unable to meet his financial obligations, he would have to relinquish his title deed - upon the backside of which would be written his debts and upon which would be placed seven seals. If at any time during the ensuing seven years he could pay off his debts, the seals would be broken and the title deed returned.

All of this explains what is in the hand of the One who sits on the throne. This is the title deed to the planed Earth. The title deed to this planet was originally given to Adan in the Garden of Eden when God told him to subdue the Earth. But Adam forfeited his right to ownership when he ate the fruit of the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

The only One who is ABLE to pay off this debt is Jesus, and He is the one who opens the seals.

Answer 2

The law and grace are the allegory in Chapter 4 and the application is in Chapter 5 of Galatians. Where do you get that this verse in Galatians says anything about making an allegory about the word backside which is in 2 different places and in two different context in Exodus and the word backside in Revelation. I think the allegory is pretty well explained right there in Galatians.

Answer 3

Im not so sure there is any more to this then discriptive writing. I read your refrence scriptures. Its a book that has the names of those redeemed out of every nation. I'm not realy following your question, perhaps clarify. Post Note: There's the letter of the law pertaining to (scripture), There is the spirit of the law pertaining to (Christ's Love) they are both real and it will always be. What is writtenis subjest to translarion but moreover what is felt in your heart is personal revelation. What I don't feel sometimes I refer to the scripture, likewise what I don't comprehend from scripture I pray for further answer to be received on my mind and confirmed in my heart as the Holy Ghost testifies the truth known to me. God Bless. Good Question

Answer 4

You are using modern term english, In Rev. 5:1 This book is not a book, Back in John's time, they did not have books, they had scrolls, & a scrol is wrotten only on one side & rolled up & sealed, The one that sit on the throne is Jesus Christ, He is seen sitting there not only as the lamb, Because he sits there as the sacrifice lamb for us & also a the lion, which shows his authority. So We have to look t this so call BOOK as a SCROLL.

Answer 5

While He is our praiseworthy, omnipotent God, the Lord has always suffered from various unsavory obsessions. One of the more troubling is His infatuation with excrement, both human and animal. To ensure that you are taking as close a walk as possible with the Lord by at least feigning interest in His fetishes, it behooves you to brush up on the Lord's favorite scatological scripture.

Before Jesus, people atoned for their sins by sacrificing animals and their dung to God.

And the bullock for the sin offering, and the goat for the sin offering, whose blood was brought in to make atonement in the holy place, shall one carry forth without the camp; and they shall burn in the fire their skins, and their flesh, and their dung” (Leviticus 16:27).

“And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung that cometh out of man.
..Then he said unto me, Lo, I have given thee cow’s dung for man’s dung, and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith” (Ezekiel 4:12-15).

'that they may eat their own dung, and drink their own piss with you” (Isaiah 36:12

Answer 6

No... it just means that there was writing on the back of the book.

...sorry for playing devil's advocate.

Answer 7

This is literally speaking, no allegory.

Answer 8

I see this as literal, as it is written on both sides.

Answer 9

I'm not sure I understand the question........

We're not really sure which parts of revelation are literal.....and which parts are symbolic
