32-Maranatha (Revelation 22:1-21)

MARANATHA!! = An Aramaic expression used by Paul in 1 Cor 16:22 meaning "Come, O Lord Jesus!"  It is thought to have been used as an expression of Christian hope -- a watchword of the imminent SECOND COMING of the Lord.

Finally, in closing, John leaves us with one last thought., It is a word of benediction -- a benediction that is a fitting conclusion to our study of the remarkable, hope-filled, inspiring book!
