Exegesis
The prepositional phrase epi tôn metopon autōn {ἐπὶ τῶν μετώπων αὐτῶν | e-pí tôn me-tṓ-pōn au-tṓn} ‘upon their foreheads’ uses epi with the genitive to denote visible location, signifying the seal of belonging. This chiastic structure—from seeing His face to bearing His name—emphasizes progression from relational encounter to permanent identification in the consummated kingdom.
In context — Revelation 22:4
And they will see His face, and His name will be upon their foreheads.
