The Ultimate Invitation
This verse contains one of Revelation's great blessings: "Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb." Commentators explain this supper is a powerful symbol, drawn from Jesus' own parables, for the ultimate joy, celebration, and intimate communion believers will share with Christ. The "call" is the invitation to salvation, and accepting it means you are a guest at this future, glorious feast.
