The Marriage Supper of the Lamb
Revelation 19:6–9

BibleProject — Tim Mackie and Jon Collins' biblical literacy platform, whose exploration of the Bible's covenant-as-marriage theme across both Testaments makes this final wedding feast comprehensible and glorious.
γάμος τοῦ ἀρνίου
gamos tou arniou · Greek NT“the marriage of the Lamb”
gamos (wedding, marriage feast) draws on the deep Old Testament metaphor of God as husband to Israel (Hosea 2, Isaiah 54, Ezekiel 16). Revelation brings this story to its culmination: the Lamb and His bride, the new covenant people, are finally and permanently united. The entire redemptive story is a love story.
The fourfold Hallelujah of Revelation 19 bursts out because the end has finally come—not as destruction but as marriage. The Almighty reigns, and the bride is ready. The linen she wears is 'the righteous deeds of the saints'—works not earned but given, the product of a life transformed by the Bridegroom's love.
BibleProject shows how the marriage metaphor threads through the entire canon: Eden, Sinai, the prophets, the parables of Jesus, and finally this. You are part of the bride. The preparation happening in you now—the sanctification, the suffering, the service—is the bride making herself ready. The feast is coming.
