Saw this on FB. Dr. Brighton indeed was a favorite professor. His commentary:
https://www.cph.org/p-688-revelation-concordia-commentary.aspxAaron Rosenau: "Just learned that one of my favorite professors passed away. Rev. Dr. Louis Brighton helped so many of us understand the Bible, particularly the book of Revelation.
"After this I looked and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb ... And they cried out in a loud voice: 'Salvation belongs to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.' ... Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst ... For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; he will lead them to springs of living water. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes." (Rev. 7)
Dr. Brighton knew this promise with deep faith and longed to see the glory of the King. I trust that he is with Jesus now, awaiting the final resurrection in joy and peace.
"I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies; and whoever lives and believes in me will never die." (John 11:25-26)"
