Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty,' who was, and is, and is to come."(8) And the four beasts (or, living beings)had each of them (literally, one by one of them)six wings about him; and they were full of (or, teeming with)eyes.- -The last verse spoke of the living beings teeming with eyes; this tells us that neither the dropping nor the raising of their wings hindered their view. And they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almightly, which was, and is, and is to come.- -The resemblance to Isaiah's vision (Revelation 6: 1- 4) may remind us that the voice of God's creation has in every age proclaimed His eternal holiness. The word "holy" is repeated eight times in the Sinaitic version. The "six wings" are taken to express reverence, for with twain (Isaiah 6: 2) he covered his face; humility, for with twain he covered his feet; and obedience, for with twain he did fly. Some have understood these living beings to betoken rather the creative power of God than the actual creation. There is much to be said for this; but the analogy of the passage suits better the view here adopted.

The twenty- four elders represent, not the regenerating power of God, but the regenerate Church. The new creation in Christ Jesus join in praise with all created things. The doxology in Revelation 4: 1. Thou hast created all things."Verse 8. And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within. The stop should probably be after wings: are full of eyes about and within.
In Isaiah 6: 2 we have "six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly." These actions appear to indicate reverence, humility, obedience. The eyes denote ceaseless activity. And they rest not day and night, saying. In the Authorized Version "day and night" is attached to "rest not." but probably should be taken with "saying," for, if connected with the negative phrase, "nor" would be more likely to occur than "and." But the point is practically immaterial, since the sense of the passage is the same in both readings. These representatives of life display the characteristics of life in its fullest energy.
They have no part in anything which savours of death - no stillness, rest, or sleep. Holy, holy, holy. The thrice- repeated "holy" has very generally been held to indicate the Trinity of the Godhead. Such is evidently the intention of the English Church in ordering this passage to be read in the Epistle for Trinity Sunday. This ascription of praise is often, though wrongly, spoken of as the "Trisagion." Lord God Almighty. Almighty" is παντοκράτωρ, the "All- Ruler," not παντοδύναμος, the "All- Powerful." The former, as Bishop Pearson says, embraces the latter. Which was, and is, and is to come.
This phrase is no doubt intended to attribute to God the quality of eternal existence. But it may also symbolize three aspects or departments of God's dealings with mankind: the creation, which has been effected by the Father; the redemption, which is now occurring by the intercession of the Son; and the final perfect sanctification by the Holy Ghost. And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him.. As the seraphim in Isaiah 6: 2 with two of which they might cover their faces as they did, testifying thereby their reverence of God, when in his presence; and with the other two cover their feet, signifying their sense of their sinfulness, weakness, and imperfection, in their conversation, even in their best works, and in the ministry of the word; and with the other two fly about, as denoting their readiness to minister the word and ordinances, to visit the members of the church, and do all good offices of love and service to them that lie in their power: and they were full of eyes within; to look into the sin and corruption of their own hearts, which is a means of keeping them humble amidst all their attainments, gifts, and graces, and of qualifying them to speak aptly of the cases of others; and they have eyes within, to look into and consult their own experience; for besides the word of God, which lies before them, they have a testimony in themselves of the truth of the doctrines of the Gospel, which they do well to attend unto; and they have these inward eyes to look into that treasure which God has put into their earthen vessels, in order to bring out of it things new and old. And they rest not day and night; they give up themselves to the ministry of the word, and prayer; are wholly in these things, meditate on the word continually, and preach the Gospel in season, and out of season: saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come; living under a continual sense of the holiness of God, Father, Son, and Spirit; and how necessary holiness is in themselves, who bear the vessels of the Lord, and in the churches and house of God; taking care that all their doctrines are according to godliness, and serve to promote holiness of life and conversation; and also under a sense of the power of God, and of their need of it, to carry them through their work, and make their ministry successful; and of the eternity and immutability of God, which is a wonderful support unto them amidst all the difficulties and troubles that attend them.
The word "holy" is three times used here, as by the seraphim in Isaiah 6: 3; and in some copies it is repeated six times, and in others nine times, as in the Complutensian edition. Greek, "round about him." Alford connects this with the following sentence: "All round and within (their wings) they are (so two oldest manuscripts, A, B, and Vulgate read) full of eyes." John's object is to show that the six wings in each did not interfere with that which he had before declared, namely, that they were "full of eyes before and behind." The eyes were round the outside of each wing, and up the inside of each when half expanded, and of the part of body in that inward recess. How awfully different the reason why the worshippers of the beast "have no rest day nor night," namely, "their torment for ever and ever."Holy, holy, holy—The "tris- hagion" of the Greek liturgies. In Isa 6: 3, as here, it occurs; also Ps 9. He is praised as "holy," (1) on account of His majesty (Re 4: 1) about to display itself; (2) His justice (Re 4: 4) already displaying itself; (3) His mercy (Re 4: 6- 8) which displayed itself in times past. So here "Holy," as He "who was"; "Holy," as He "who is": "Holy," as He "who is to come." He showed Himself an object of holy worship in the past creation of all things: more fully He shows Himself so in governing all things: He will, in the highest degree, show Himself so in the consummation of all things.
Of (from) Him, through Him, and to Him, are all things: to whom be glory for ever. Amen." In Isa 6: 3 there is added, "the whole EARTH is full of His glory." But in Revelation this is deferred until the glory of THE Lord fills the earth, His enemies having been destroyed [Bengel].
Almighty—answering to "Lord of hosts" (Sabaoth), Isa 6: 3. The cherubim here have six wings, like the seraphim in Isa 6: 2; whereas the cherubim in Eze 1: 6 had four wings each. They are called by the same name, "living creatures." But whereas in Ezekiel each living creature has all four faces, here the four belong severally one to each.
See on [2. 68. 9]Eze 1: 6. The four living creatures answer by contrast to the four world powers represented by four beasts.
