“They Who Rest From Their Labors. . .”

Question: Who are they who rest from their labors and their works do follow them? (Rev. 14:13.)
Answer: Rev. 14:13 announces the blessedness henceforth of those that die in the Lord. There is no more dying thus. The end of such suffering as well as of the testimony that exposed to it is come. Hence we have the Lord’s coming in judgment immediately consequent. The special reference is to the Apocalyptic martyrs for His name.
