Revelation 22:12 and 22: 13 reminds us of Revelation 1:7 and 1:8 --
In Revelation 1:7 the topic of discussion is Jesus (he is coming, with the clouds etc.), and without any warning the topic switches to the Father the very next verse (saying that the Father is the Alpha and the Omega) . And the very next verse after that, starting verse 9, apostle John's testimony / monologue:
Same format at Revelation 22:12 and 13. So I divide the verses in the same way here also:
In Revelation 1:7 the topic of discussion is Jesus (he is coming, with the clouds etc.), and without any warning the topic switches to the Father the very next verse (saying that the Father is the Alpha and the Omega) . And the very next verse after that, starting verse 9, apostle John's testimony / monologue:
