Rev. 21:24 and the Words "Of Them Which Are Saved"

926. Rev. 21:24.

ARE the words ‘of them which are saved’ omitted from Rev. 21:24 in the early manuscripts? E. D. W.

Yes; they are not given in the Revised Versions, and are omitted by Griesbach, Lachman, Tischendorf, Tregelles, Alford, Wordsworth. But the whole context shows that it is the nations who are saved that are referred to.
