Revelation 2:9

I know your works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but you are rich) and I know the blasphemy of them who say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.
Read Chapter 2

Bede

AD 735
Jews: &quot;They profess that they know God, but in works they deny Him.&quot; For Jew is a name of religion. And so also the Apostle says, &quot;who is a Jew inwardly, and circumcision is of the heart,&quot; &quot;not in the letter.&quot; <a

Bede

AD 735
tribulation: Yea, &quot;Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.&quot; Fortunatus has beautifully expressed this in a short verse, saying: &quot;In narrow realm the poor man reigns possessing God.&quot;

Clement Of Rome

AD 99
For in God's estimation he is not a Jew who is called a Jew among men (nor is he a Gentile that is called a Gentile), but he who, believing in God, fulfils His law and does His will, though he be not circumcised.

Victorinus of Pettau

AD 303
For He knows that with such men there are riches hidden with Him, and that they deny the blasphemy of the Jews, who say that they are Jews and are not; but they are the synagogue of Satan, since they are gathered together by Antichrist.

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
