John sees so many that he cannot begin to express any words regarding their volume. So, he says myriads or ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands. The number of the angels can be estimated as one hundred millions, to begin with, and then millions and millions more! This, is a clear allusion to Daniel 7:10 which as an Orthodox Jew he knew the OT well; (where “thousand” precedes “myriad” in both the Masoretic Text and Septuagint, the more usual order) describing the infinite number of the heavenly host that attend God. A “myriad” is the highest number known to the Greco-Roman world (about ten thousand). The mention of an innumerable host of angels also occurs often in the Old Testament (Deuteronomy 33:2; Job 25:3; Psalm 68:17; 89:7; Daniel 7:10). These observations of John emphasizes the power of the scene, stressing even more the incomparable majesty and splendor of God on His throne. These angels “round about the throne” form a fourth circle around it, after the rainbow, the living creatures, and the elders as if to guard the participants and their activities. After the Lamb has taken the book, the angels say, “Worthy is the Lamb that hath been slain to receive the power, and riches, and wisdom, and might and honor, and glory, and blessing.” their adoration, and what He has done for all to die and rise in resurrection for all. For it was unto Him that sitteth upon the throne; and their cry of WORTHY, was to Him who created all things, and by whose will they were, and were created. But here they fall down before the Lamb, and cry their WORTHY, unto Him that was slain, and had redeemed them with His blood.
