Study Note
The eschatological promise that God 'will wipe every tear from their eyes; there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away' offers one of the most comprehensive visions of cosmic restoration in the Bible. The list of four abolitions — death, mourning, crying, pain — is sequential in human experience: pain leads to tears, loss to mourning, and all to death; eschatology reverses the sequence. The phrase 'old order of things has passed away' (ta prota apelthan) parallels 2 Corinthians 5:17's 'the old has gone,' indicating personal and cosmic renewal are part of a single divine purpose. This verse is the most commonly read passage at Christian funerals alongside Psalm 23, offering hope that grief is penultimate, not final.
