VERSE (13) -
Joh 5:28,29

SEV Biblia, Chapter 20:13

Y el mar dio los muertos que estaban en l; y la muerte y el infierno dieron los muertos que estaban en ellos; y fue hecho juicio de cada uno segn sus obras.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Revelation 20:13

Verse 13. The
sea gave up the dead] Those who had been drowned in it, and those millions slain in naval contests, who had no other grave.

And death] All who died by any kind of disease. Death is here personified, and represented as a keeper of defunct human beings; probably no more than earth or the grave is meant, as properly belonging to the empire of death.

And hell] aidhv, Hades, the place of separate spirits. The sea and death have the bodies of all human beings; hades has their spirits. That they may be judged, and punished or rewarded according to their works, their bodies and souls must be reunited; hades, therefore, gives up the spirits; and the sea and the earth give up the bodies.


John Gill's Bible Commentary

Ver. 13. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it , etc.] Which is not to be interpreted metaphorically of the world, and the men of it, who are like the troubled sea; but literally of the sea, and of all such who have been drowned in the waters of it, as were Pharaoh and his host; or have died upon the mighty waters, and have been cast into them, and devoured by the fishes; and particular regard may be had to the men of the old world, drowned by the flood; these shall be raised from thence; the sea shall deliver them up: now this, and what is expressed in the next clause, will not be done after the judgment is set, the books are opened, and the sentence passed, but before all this, and in order to it, as the last clause of this verse shows: and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them ; death, which is here represented as a person, and elsewhere as a king, reigning and having power over men, signifies death in general, and every kind of death of which men have died, whether natural or violent, over whom it will now have no longer dominion, but will be obliged to deliver up all its subjects; and hell signifies the grave, which will now be opened, and deliver up all its prisoners, all that have been buried in the earth; (see Job 26:5,6) the Ethiopic version adds, and the earth delivered up them that were dead in it: but this seems unnecessary after the former: and they were judged every man according to their works ; some to greater, some to lesser punishment, as their sinful works deserved.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 11-15 - After the events just foretold, the end will speedily come; and ther is no mention of any thing else, before the appearing of
Christ to judge the world. This will be the great day: the Judge, the Lord Jesu Christ, will then put on majesty and terror. The persons to be judge are the dead, small and great; young and old, low and high, poor an rich. None are so mean, but they have some talents to account for; an none so great, as to avoid having to account for them. Not only thos alive at the coming of Christ, but all the dead. There is a book of remembrance both for good and bad: and the book of the sinner' conscience, though formerly secret, will then be opened. Every man wil recollect all his past actions, though he had long forgotten many of them. Another book shall be opened, the book of the Scriptures, the rule of life; it represents the Lord's knowledge of his people, and his declaring their repentance, faith, and good works; showing the blessings of the new covenant. By their works men shall be justified of condemned; he will try their principles by their practices. Thos justified and acquitted by the gospel, shall be justified and acquitte by the Judge, and shall enter into eternal life, having nothing more to fear from death, or hell, or wicked men; for these are all destroye together. This is the second death; it is the final separation of sinners from God. Let it be our great concern to see whether our Bible justify or condemn us now; for Christ will judge the secrets of all me according to the gospel. Who shall dwell with devouring flames __________________________________________________________________

Vincent's NT Word Studies

13. The
sea. As commonly understood, the sea means the literal sea, and the passage signifies that the dead contained in it shall rise. So Alford. Other interpreters, however, say that it cannot mean the literal sea. Thus Milligan argues that the symbols of the Apocalypse must always be interpreted in the same way. "Symbols," he says, "are a form of speech, and therefore subject to the rules that regulate the interpretation of all speech... The power of that convention which links a certain sense to a certain sound in ordinary terms, is not less binding in the presence than in the absence of metaphor of any kind whatever. Thus when we read in the Apocalypse of 'the sea' as an emblem of the troubled and sinful nations of the earth, we are bound, unless forbidden by the context, to carry that interpretation through, and to understand the sea of the troubled and sinful world."

Hell (o adhv). Rev., Hades. See on Matt. xvi. 18.
