Revelation 11:2

11:2 But ¹  do not measure the outer courtyard ²  of the temple; leave it out, ³  because it has been given to the Gentiles, ⁴  and they will trample on the holy city ⁵  for forty-two months.

Revelation 22:2

22:2 flowing down the middle of the city’s ⁶  main street. ⁷  On each side ⁸  of the river is the tree of life producing twelve kinds ⁹  of fruit, yielding its fruit every month of the year. ¹⁰  Its leaves are for the healing of the nations.

¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

² tn On the term αὐλήν (aulhn) BDAG 150 s.v. αὐλή 1 states, “(outer) court of the temple…Rv 11:2.”

³ tn The precise meaning of the phrase ἔκβαλε ἔξωθεν (ekbale exwqen) is difficult to determine.

⁴ tn Or “to the nations” (the same Greek word may be translated “Gentiles” or “nations”).

⁵ sn The holy city appears to be a reference to Jerusalem. See also Luke 21:24.

⁶ tn Grk “its”; the referent (the city, the new Jerusalem) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

⁷ tn The Greek word πλατεῖα (plateia) refers to a major (broad) street (L&N 1.103).

⁸ tn Grk “From here and from there.”

⁹ tn Or “twelve crops” (one for each month of the year).

¹⁰ tn The words “of the year” are implied.
