- Revelation 5:10
- ". . . we shall reign on earth."
- Problem:
- This verse is translated "over" rather than "on" by the Plymouth Brethren, and the "Jehovah's Witnesses", in an attempt to evade the difficulty of having the righteous live and reign on the earth.
- Solution:
- In 6 other places in Revelation the identical phrase is translated "on the earth" or "upon the earth", but not "over the earth" as though suggesting remote control. (E.g., Rev., 6:10; 7:1; 11:10; 13:14; 14:6; 17:8).
- Even if "over" were the correct translation, it is said that the Queen reigns over England without suggesting that she reigns above it.
