Commentary -- Verse Notes / Footnotes

NET Notes: Rev 14:12

¹ tn Grk “Here is.”

² tn Or “the perseverance.”

³ tn Grk “who keep.”

⁴ tn The words “hold to” are implied as a repetition of the participle translated “keep” (οἱ τηροῦντες, Joi throunte").

⁵ tn Grk “faith of Jesus.” The construction may mean either “faith in Jesus” or “faithful to Jesus.” Either translation implies that ᾿Ιησοῦ (Ihsou) is to be taken as an objective genitive; the difference is more lexical than grammatical because πίστις (pistis) can mean either “faith” or “faithfulness.”
