Revelation 5:5-6 (context) Thoughts are Jonathan Edwards from The Works of Jonathan Edwards
"There is an admirable conjunction of diverse excellencies in Jesus Christ.
The lion and the lamb, though very diverse kinds of creatures, yet [each have] their particular excellencies. The lion...strength...majesty of his appearance and voice: the lamb excels in meekness...paitence...excelent nature...good for food...clothing...and...suitable to be offered in sacrifice to God....Christ is in this text compared to both; because the diverse excellencies of both wonderfully meet in him."
I will summarise his points....tbc
