Revelation 2:17 in context

Revelation 2:14–20

14

But I have a few things against you, because you have there some who hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to throw a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit sexual immorality.

15

So also you likewise have some who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans.

16

Repent therefore, or else I am coming to you quickly and I will make war against them with the sword of my mouth.

17
Selected verse

He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows but he who receives it.

18

“To the angel of the assembly in Thyatira write:

“The Son of God, who has his eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet are like burnished brass, says these things:

19

“I know your works, your love, faith, service, patient endurance, and that your last works are more than the first.

20

But I have this against you, that you tolerate your woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess. She teaches and seduces my servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat things sacrificed to idols.
