People's Commentary (NT)
Revelation 1:6
And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father. Here
the Revised Version must be followed: "And he made us [to be] a kingdom,
[to be] priests unto his God". His disciples are constituted a kingdom;
a kingdom in which each one is a priest. No disciple needeth a priest
to offer incense or sacrifice for him, for he can go directly to the
Father through Jesus Christ. See PNT "1Pe 2:9". Christians are
called priests, but are never called kings in a correct translation of
the New Testament.
