The Greek word for "robe" (χιτών, chitōn) refers to a garment worn next to the skin, often symbolizing one's identity or status. In the context of Revelation, this robe signifies Christ's divine authority and kingship. The phrase "dipped in blood" is particularly striking, suggesting both judgment and redemption. Historically, blood is a symbol of life and sacrifice. Here, it may represent the blood of Christ's enemies, indicating His victory over evil, or His own sacrificial blood, underscoring His role as the Redeemer. This duality reflects the comprehensive nature of Christ's mission—both as a judge and a savior. and His name is The Word of God Persons / Places / Events 1.

Probably the similarity of this passage has caused the reading, "sprinkled with blood," which is found in a few manuscripts. In the original passage in Isaiah, the blood is doubtless the blood of his enemies; but it is possible that there is here a reference to the blood of Christ himself, which he shed in his warfare with Satan. And his Name is called The Word of God. Only in St. John's writings does this title appear - a strong argument in favour of his authorship of the Apocalypse (cf. John 1:1; 1 John 1:1). This cannot be the "name" of ver. 12, which, as there explained, is unknown. This Name, the Word of God, is appropriately used when he is going forth to judgment. Parallel Commentaries ...
