In like manner we read in chap. Revelation 12:17 of ‘the rest' of the woman's seed, as distinguished from the body of the professing Church. This ‘rest' might have partaken of the supper of the Lamb, but they rejected the light because they loved the darkness; and the evil which they chose now brings with it swift and irresistible destruction.
