Revelation of John 22:3-5

No more curse; the curse shall be no more; that is, the terrible curses originally denounced against human sin in the days of Adam's transgression (Gen. 3:14-19) shall now be removed forever. Thus the volume of the word of God, having opened with a history of that terrible malediction pronounced upon the human race, which has made this world such a scene of sorrow, now sublimely closes with a prophetic announcement of its perpetual removal. This link, connecting the beginning with the end, binds together the whole word of God, and gives a lofty unity to the long succession of vastly varied materials which the sacred volume comprises.—And his servants shall serve him; shall be employed, actively, in the pursuit and accomplishment of his plans.

Shall see his face; shall be admitted to intimate communion with him.—His name, &c. This was a mark of ownership. The meaning is, that they shall be entirely his.
