¹ tn Grk “onto a bed,” in this context an idiom for severe illness (L&N 23.152).

² tn Or “into great distress.” The suffering here is not specified as physical or emotional, and could involve persecution.

³ tn Or “who is victorious”; traditionally, “who overcomes.”

⁴ tn Grk “keeps.” In a context that speaks of “holding on to what you have,” the idea here is one of continued faithful behavior (BDAG 1002 s.v. τηρέω 3 has “ὁ τηρῶν τὰ ἔργα μου the one who takes my deeds to heart Rv 2:26”).

⁵ tn Or “over the Gentiles” (the same Greek word may be translated “Gentiles” or “nations”).

⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

⁷ tn See the note on the word “servants” in 1:1.

⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

¹⁰ tn Grk “spoke” or “declared to,” but in the context “asked” reads more naturally in English.

¹¹ tn Or perhaps, “scales like iron breastplates” (RSV, NRSV) although the Greek term θώραξ (qwrax) would have to shift its meaning within the clause, and elsewhere in biblical usage (e.g., Eph 6:14; 1 Thess 5:8) it normally means “breastplate.” See also L&N 8.38.

¹³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

¹⁴ tc ‡ Several key mss (Ì⁴⁷ א¹ A 0207 1611 2053 2344 pc lat sy^h co) lack the word τεσσάρων (tessarwn, “four”) before κεράτων (keratwn, “horns”). The word seems to have been added by scribes because a “horned” altar (described in the OT [Exod 30:2, 10]) could have only four “horns” or projections at the corners. NA²⁷ includes the word in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity.

¹⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

¹⁶ tn The Greek article τήν (thn) has been translated with demonstrative force here.

¹⁷ tn The Greek term καί (kai) has not been translated here and before the following term “month” since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

¹⁸ tn Grk “so that they might kill,” but the English infinitive is an equivalent construction to indicate purpose here.

¹⁷ tn Grk “and it was given to him to go to war.” Here the passive construction has been simplified, the referent (the beast) has been specified for clarity, and καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

¹⁸ tc Many mss omit the phrase “it was given to make war with the saints and to overcome them” (Ì⁴⁷ A C 2053 Ï^A sa). It is, however, found in Ì^115vid א 051 1006 (1611) 1841 (1854) 2329 2344 2351 (Ï^K) lat sy^ph,(h) bo. Although the ms evidence is somewhat in favor of the shorter reading, the support of ̹¹⁵ (a recently-discovered ms) for the longer reading balances things out. Normally, the shorter reading should be given preference. However, in an instance in which homoioteleuton could play a role, caution must be exercised. In this passage, accidental omission is quite likely. That this could have happened seems apparent from the two occurrences of the identical phrase “and it was given to him” (καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ, kai edoqh autw) in v. 7. The scribe’s eye skipped over the first καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ and went to the second, hence creating an accidental omission of eleven words.

¹⁹ tn For the translation “ruling authority” for ἐξουσία (exousia) see L&N 37.35.

²⁰ tn Grk “and people,” but καί (kai) has not been translated here or before the following term since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

¹⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

²⁰ tn This is a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo"), referring to both men and women.

²¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

²² tn Grk “the third”; the referent (the third angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

²³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the somewhat parenthetical nature of the remarks that follow.

²⁴ tn Or “righteous,” although the context favors justice as the theme.

²⁵ tn Or “because you have judged these things.” The pronoun ταῦτα (tauta) is neuter gender.

²⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

²⁷ tn Grk “And.” Because this remark is somewhat resumptive in nature, “as for” is used in the translation.

²⁹ sn This statement appears to be a parenthetical comment by the author.

³¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
