Then I was told, "You must go back and prophesy again over many peoples and nations and languages and kings."

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And the voice which I heard from heaven,.... In Revelation 10:4;
spake to me again, and said, go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth; as John was to prophesy, Revelation 10:11; it was necessary that he should have a mission and a commission from heaven; and that he should have the open book of prophecy to prophesy out of; and that he should receive this from the angel's hands, who had unloosed its seals, and opened it: and just so to ordinary prophesying, or preaching, it is necessary that men should have their commission from heaven, should be called of God, and sent by him; and that they should have the book of the Scriptures before them, and open to them, and speak according to these oracles, agreeably to the law and to the testimony, which are profitable for doctrine; and that they should also receive the Gospel, and the doctrines of it, with gifts, and a commission to preach it, from the Angel of the covenant, Jesus Christ, who has all power both in heaven and in earth; see Revelation 10:2.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
And the voice which I heard from heaven - Revelation 10:4. This is not the voice of the angel, but a direct divine command,
Said, Go and take the little book which is open, ... - That is, take it out of his hand, and do with it as you shall be commanded. There is a very strong resemblance between this passage and the account contained in Ezekiel 2:9-10; Ezekiel 3:1-3. Ezekiel was directed to go to the house of Israel and deliver a divine message, whether they would hear or forbear; and in order that he might understand what message to deliver, there was shown to him a roll of a book, written within and without. That roll he was commanded to eat, and he found it to be âin his mouth as honey for sweetness.â John has added to this the circumstance that, though âsweet in the mouth,â it made âthe belly bitter.â The additional command Revelation 10:11, that he must yet âprophecy before many people,â leads us to suppose that he had the narrative in Ezekiel in his eye; for, as the result of his eating the roll, he was commanded to go and prophesy to the people of Israel. The passage here Revelation 10:8 introduces a new symbol, that of âeating the book,â and evidently refers to something that was to occur before the âmystery should be finishedâ; that is, before the seventh trumpet should sound.
âWhich is open in the hand ...â On the symbolical meaning of the word âopen,â as applied to the book, see the notes on Revelation 10:2.
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse Revelation 10:8. Take the little book which is open — Learn from this angel what should be published to the world.
