Thought for the day:
And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice,
"Who is worthy to open the scroll and to break its seals?"
And no one in heaven nor on earth nor under the earth
was able to open the scroll, nor to look-at it.
And I was weeping greatly because no one worthy
was found to open the scroll, nor to look-at it.
And one of the elders says to me,
"Do not be weeping.
Behold- the Lion from the tribe of Judah,
the Root of David, overcame
so as to open the scroll and its seven seals".
Revelation 5:2-5
