The last major aspect that establishes the parallel structure of Revelation 19:11-16 is nothing other than simply noting that both the last portion of verse 13 and verse 16 contain a title.
14 And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat
upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth
judge and make war.
15 And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword [op. desc., Perg.], that with it he should smite the nations:
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire [op. desc., Thy.], and on his head were many crowns;
and he shall rule them with a rod of iron [clos. prom., Thy.]:
and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself [clos. prom., Perg].
and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God [Isaiah 63:1-6].
13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood [Isaiah 63:1-6]:
16 And he hath on his vesture and
on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
and his name is called The Word of God.
