Revelation 2:7

“This if you doubt, unravel the meaning of “what the Spirit saith to the churches.”” — editor's note: Rev. ii. 7, 11, 17, 29; iii. 6, 13, 21.

“For, sinner as I am of every dye, and born for nothing save repentance, I cannot easily be silent about that concerning which also the very head and fount of the human race, and of human offence, Adam, restored by exomologesis to his own paradise, is not silent.” — editor's note: Cf. Gen. iii. 24 with Luke xxiii. 43, 2 Cor. xii. 4, and Rev. ii. 7. [Elucidation IV.]

“All these are a training from God for us, and a healing for our weakness, restoring the old Adam to the place whence he fell, and conducting us to the tree of life, from which the tree of knowledge estranged us, when partaken of unseasonably, and improperly.” — editor's note: Rev. ii. 7; xxii. 14.

“Also in the same place: “He who shall overcome I will give him to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of my God.”” — editor's note: Rev. ii. 7.
