Und einer von den Ältesten spricht zu mir: Weine nicht! Siehe, es hat überwunden der Löwe aus dem Stamm Juda, die Wurzel Davids, um das Buch zu öffnen und seine sieben Siegel zu brechen!

Was bedeutet das?

In this verse from Revelation, one of the elders tells John not to cry because Jesus, called 'the Lion of the tribe of Judah' and 'the Root of David,' has overcome to open a sealed book with seven seals. The key message is that Jesus has conquered and can reveal what's in the book.
