Rev 5:2 | MHM | STEP | v. 2 : John sees a strong angel asking, “Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?” (Revelation 5:2 ). The angel’s loud voice is a challenge to all creation—if anyone is wise or powerful enough to explain or carry out God’s plans, they should come forward. But this shows that no creature, no matter how great, is able to do it.
