📜 Complete Scriptural Narrative

In Revelation 5:1, John sees in the right hand of Him who was seated on the throne a scroll written within and on the back (completely full, with no room for anyone to add or alter a line), sealed with seven royal signet seals. When a mighty angel proclaimed, 'Who is worthy to open the scroll and break its seals?', John wept loudly because no one in heaven or on earth or under the earth was able to open it — until the Lamb standing as though it had been slain stepped forward and took the scroll, sparking the new song of all creation (Revelation 5:2–10).
