Revelation 3:9

“Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, etc.] Which may be understood either of the Papists, the followers of the man of sin, whose coming was after the working of Satan, and whose doctrines are the doctrines of devils, many of whom will now be converted, and brought to the true church; or rather of the Jews, who had, and have, and will have till this time, their synagogues for religious worship in their way; but they are no other than synagogues of Satan; the men that assemble in them are of their father the devil, and do his works, and will do them: which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; they are Jews by name and nation; they are.

“I will make--Greek present, "I make," literally, "I give" (see on Rev 3:8). The promise to Philadelphia is larger than that to Smyrna.

“3:9 those who belong to Satan’s synagogue: The Christians in Philadelphia had suffered maltreatment by anti-Christian Jews (see study note on 2:9). • bow down at your feet: In the ancient world, captives were often forced to prostrate themselves before their conquerors (see Isa 49:23; 60:14). The church’s human enemies will ultimately acknowledge that Christians are the ones God loves.”

“the synagogue: Rev 2:9 I will make them to: Exo 11:8, Exo 12:30-32; Sa1 2:36; Est 8:17; Job 42:8-10; Isa 49:23, Isa 60:14; Zac 8:20-23; Act 16:37-39 Revelation 3:10”
