Revelation 1 – pt. 2 ~ A two-edged sword that came out of His mouth? Literally? Yes! 2025

Rev 1:16
And in His right hand He held seven stars; and out of His mouth came a sharp two-edged sword; and His face was like the sun shining in its strength.

Was there literally a two-edged sword that came out of His mouth? Yes, because John is just telling us what he sees and hears. The point here is that this sword, or rod, is referencing His Word.

Isa 11:4 But with righteousness He will judge the poor, And decide with fairness for the afflicted of the earth; And He will strike the earth with the rod of His mouth, And with the breath of His lips He will slay the wicked.

Isa 49:2 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Heb. 4:12 For the word of God is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart.

Is the Word of Elohim actually a two-edged sword? Yes it is. This is an excellent description, especially if we use it to refer to Torah. The two edges of His sword are the blessings and curses and described Torah.

Deut 11:26-28 “See, I am setting before you today a blessing and a curse: 27the blessing, if you listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, which I am commanding you today; 28and the curse, if you do not listen to the commandments of the LORD your God, but turn aside from the way which I am commanding you today, by following other gods which you have not known.
