Church Fathers on Revelation 1:14
“And His head and His hairs were white as it were white wool, and as it were snow.” On the head the whiteness is shown; “but the head of Christ is God.” 1 Corinthians 11:3 In the white hairs is the multitude of abbots like to wool, in respect of simple sheep; to snow, in respect of the innumerable crowd of candidates taught from heaven. “His eyes were as a flame of fire.” God's precepts are those which minister light to believers, but to unbelievers burning.
