And they cried out
This phrase indicates a loud, collective proclamation, suggesting urgency and fervor. The Greek word used here is "ekrazan," which implies a strong, emotional outburst. In the context of Revelation, this cry is not just a vocal expression but a spiritual declaration. Historically, crying out in a loud voice was a common practice in ancient times to express deep conviction or to call upon divine intervention. This collective cry signifies unity among the multitude, emphasizing the shared faith and hope of believers.

in a loud voice
The phrase "in a loud voice" underscores the intensity and clarity of the proclamation. The Greek term "phōnē megalē" is used, which translates to a great or mighty voice. This is not a whisper of faith but a bold declaration that demands attention. In the scriptural context, a loud voice often accompanies significant divine revelations or declarations, as seen in other parts of Revelation. It symbolizes the power and authority of the message being delivered.

Salvation
The word "salvation" is central to Christian theology, derived from the Greek "sōtēria," meaning deliverance or preservation. In the biblical narrative, salvation is the ultimate goal of God's redemptive plan through Jesus Christ. This term encapsulates the deliverance from sin and eternal death, offering believers hope and assurance of eternal life. The historical context of salvation in the Bible often involves God rescuing His people, as seen in the Exodus story, which serves as a precursor to the ultimate salvation through Christ.

belongs to our God
This phrase affirms the source and ownership of salvation. The Greek word "theos" for God here emphasizes the monotheistic belief in one sovereign deity. The possessive "our" indicates a personal relationship between the believers and God, highlighting the communal aspect of faith. Historically, this declaration would resonate with early Christians who faced persecution, as it reassures them of God's ultimate authority and control over their destiny.

who sits on the throne
The imagery of God sitting on the throne is a powerful symbol of divine sovereignty and kingship. The Greek word "thronos" signifies a seat of authority and judgment. In the context of Revelation, the throne represents God's ultimate rule over the universe. This imagery is consistent with Old Testament depictions of God as King, reinforcing His eternal reign and the assurance that His plans will prevail despite earthly turmoil.

and to the Lamb!
The "Lamb" refers to Jesus Christ, a central figure in Christian theology. The Greek word "arnion" is used, symbolizing innocence, sacrifice, and redemption. The Lamb imagery is rooted in the Passover lamb of the Old Testament, which prefigures Christ's sacrificial death for humanity's sins. This phrase highlights the dual focus of worship in Revelation: God the Father and Jesus the Son, both integral to the salvation narrative. The historical and scriptural context of the Lamb underscores the fulfillment of prophecy and the hope of redemption for believers.

(10) And cried with a loud voice . . .--Better, And they cry with a loud voice, saying, The salvation to our God who sitteth upon the throne, and to the Lamb. Their cry, littered with a loud voice, is the acknowledgment that their salvation--the salvation which they now taste--is due not to themselves, but to their God and to the Lamb. The salvation here must, I think, be taken in its most comprehensive sense, including every deliverance--from the curse of law, from the power of sin, and from the perils of life. The explanation in Revelation 7:14 confirms this. (Comp. Galatians 3:13; Philippians 3:9.) This is "the voice of rejoicing and salvation which is in the tabernacles of the righteous," when the Lord, who is their strength and song, "has become their salvation" (Psalm 118:14). Note the recurrence of "the Lamb." They are before the throne and before the Lamb; their salvation is ascribed to God and to the Lamb.

Verse 10. - And cried with a loud voice; and they cry, etc. The present tense expresses the unceasing nature of their occupation (Alford). Saying, Salvation to our God; that is, "The praise and honour due for our salvation belongs to God, since he is the Cause of our salvation." Note the similarity to the "Hosanna" of the palm-bearing multitude of the Feast of Tabernacles (see John 12:13; 2 Macc. 10:6, 7; Psalm 118:25). Which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. To the Triune God, and to the Lamb (see on Revelation 4:2; cf. Revelation 5:13; Revelation 12:10).
