Here is Christs reproof of this church of Thyatira, and it is twofold: First, of the whole church, in this 20. verse: Secondly, of a woman in that church, vers. 21. In the reproof of the whole church note two things: The reproof it self; And the reason thereof. The reproof it self is contained in these words, Notwithstanding I have something against thee: That is, though I have praised thee for many worthy works, yet there be some things which I do not approve. This reproof hath bin handled in the former Epistles. The reason of the reproof followeth in these words, That thou sufferest the woman Jezebel, who calleth her self a Prophetess, to teach and seduce my servants.
