The ULB does this with the poetry in verses 3-4. - -### Special concepts in this chapter - -#### "Victorious over the beast" - -Those who are "victorious over the beast" are spiritually victorious. While most spiritual battles cannot be seen, the Book of Revelation pictures spiritual battles as openly occurring.

Here John seems to refer to God's heavenly dwelling place or temple. (See: [[rc://en/tw/dict/bible/kt/heaven]] and [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/writing-apocalypticwriting]]) - -#### Songs - -The Book of Revelation often describes heaven as a place where people sing. They worship God with songs. This illustrates that heaven is a place where God is always worshiped. - -## Links: - -* __[Revelation 15:1 Notes](./01.md)__ - -__[<<](../14/intro.md) | [>>](../16/intro.md)__ -
