Revelation 22:17


The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!"
[Depending on who "the bride" refers to, the meaning could be "come Jesus" or "come to Jesus."
If the bride is the church here on earth, then it corresponds to the longing that John later expresses in verse 20: "Come, Lord Jesus." It becomes a response to the three "behold, I am coming soon" that Jesus says, see verses 7, 12, 20.
If, on the other hand, the bride refers to "the new Jerusalem from heaven" that John has just seen and described in detail in the previous chapter, it is the perfected heavenly church that calls on the church here on earth to rise to a higher spiritual level.]
Anyone who hears [the Spirit and the bride say this, anyone who listens and has this letter read to them or reads this letter themselves],
is urged to say, "Come!"
Anyone who thirsts [longs for more of God],
is urged to come!
Whoever wants to,
is invited to freely (without charge) receive the water of life. [From the river flowing from the throne of God and the Lamb, see verses 1-2. Jesus also spoke in similar terms, see John 7:37.]
