How do we know Jesus is worthy to open the scroll?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus is declared worthy due to His triumph as the Lion of the tribe of Judah.

In Revelation 5:5, an elder proclaims that the Lion of the tribe of Judah has triumphed and is worthy to open the scroll with seven seals. This triumph is attributed to His victory over sin and death through the cross. Jesus’ qualifications stem not only from His authority as King but also from His sacrificial death, which satisfies God’s justice, and thus has made Him the only one capable of enacting God's plan of salvation.
