[1:14]  1 tn Grk “the seventh from Adam.”

[1:14]  2 tn Grk “against them.” The dative τούτοις (toutois) is a dativus incommodi (dative of disadvantage).

[1:14]  3 tn Grk “has come,” a proleptic aorist.

[1:14]  4 tn Grk “ten thousands.” The word μυριάς (muria"), from which the English myriad is derived, means “ten thousand.” In the plural it means “ten thousands.” This would mean, minimally, 20,000 (a multiple of ten thousand). At the same time, the term was often used in apocalyptic literature to represent simply a rather large number, without any attempt to be specific.

[19:4]  5 tn The Hebrew term translated “sovereign master” here is אֲדֹנָי (’adonay).
