Najczęściej w passusach trzeciej ewangelii można widzieć echo słów zapisanych przez Eklezjastesa. Nie jest to jednak jedyny rodzaj związku zachodzący pomiędzy tymi tekstami. W Koh 1,16 bohater przedstawiony jako Salomon może być typem Jezusa pokazanego w Łk 2,40.52. W Łk 12,19 można widzieć natomiast prawdopodobną aluzję do Koh 8,15. Użycie typologii, aluzji i ech w zaprezentowanych powyżej fragmentach wpisuje się w badanie zależności intertekstualnych pomiędzy tekstami. Autor trzeciej ewangelii poprzez użycie Koh dokonuje jego reinterpretacji.

Grzech ten dotyczy zarówno zewnętrznej, jak i wewnętrznej postawy człowieka. Przykładem potwierdzającym tę tezę jest historia Balaama, na którą powołuje się autor na-tchniony. Grzech idolatrii może być dobrym impulsem do nawrócenia. Tej radykalnej zmianie życia pomaga powrót do tożsamości chrzcielnej, która w Ap 2,17 jest zobrazo-wana poprzez symbole: manny ukrytej, białego kamienia oraz nowego imienia.

Można wymienić ich dwanaście: świecznik (2,5); owoc z drzewa życia (2,7); wieniec (2,10; 3,11); manna ukryta (2,17a); biały kamień (2,17b); nowe imię (2,17c); gwiazda (2,28); białe szaty (3,5.18); imię w księdze życia (3,5); drzwi otwarte (3,8); złoto oczyszczone w ogniu (3,18a); balsam do namaszczenia oczu (3,18b). Mimo, że autor Ap nigdzie wprost nie mówi o chrzcie, to na podstawie wyżej omówionych elementów można stwierdzić, że czyni on aluzje do tego sakramentu. Pokazuje również, w jaki sposób konsekwencje inicjacji chrześcijańskiej mają wpływać na rozwój tożsamości chrzcielnej. Poprzez chrzest człowiek staje się świadkiem Jezusa, jest włączony w Jego misję prorocką, przyobleka się w Niego, porzucając swoją koncepcję na siebie i kierując swoją egzystencję w stronę życia wiecznego poprzez realny udział w męce, śmierci i zmartwychwstaniu Jezusa.

Exegetic-Theological Study The second blessing from the Book of Revelation expresses one of the most profound truths of Christianity, namely that dying with Christ enables us to take part in His resurrection. The presented interpretation of the blessing from Rev 14:13 serves as a springboard to further research on this and other blessings from the last book of Holy Scripture. Furthermore, it appears that this research question contributed to a deeper understanding of the meaning of blessings for a believer in Christ when the Book of Revelation was written and will contribute nowadays for contemporary Christians. Reading the contents of the last book of the New Testament will make it possible to find and interpret valuable guidelines given by Christ to us, his disciples.

The symbolism of Revelation is not easy to decipher. Also in the case of the Dragon, the Beast and the False Prophet there are many possibilities for interpretation. In our article this characters were presented as having an anti-Trinitarian dimension. We skipped aspects of understending them in the context on the imperialist Rome. The Dragon is the antithesis of God the Father, the Beast is the antithesis of the Son of God and the False Prophet is the antithesis of the Holy Spirit. Their work involves gathering his followers. We can identify Gog and Magog as enemies of God. The fight with them will take place in the end times. Every beliver fights each day with Gog and Magog of obedience to the Trinity and not to the diabolical triad.
