In context
AI-assisted, sourcedRevelation 22:1-5The river and the tree of life
About Revelation 22The angel shows John "a pure river of water of life" from the throne and "the tree of life," whose leaves "were for the healing of the nations," where "there shall be no more curse" and God's servants "shall see his face." Jesus says, "Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book," and "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last," and the invitation goes out, "whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely." The book warns against adding to or taking away from its words, and ends with the promise "Surely I come quickly" and the prayer "Even so, come, Lord Jesus."
