Commentary
(Rev 15:4). to thee doth it appertain--to Thee it properly belongs, namely, that Thou shouldest be "feared" (taken out of the previous "fear Thee") (compare Eze 21:27). He alone is the becoming object of worship. To worship any other is unseemly and an infringement of His inalienable prerogative. none--nothing whatever (see on Jer 10:6; Psa 89:6).
