[10:5]  1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[10:2]  2 tn Grk “and having.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation by supplying the pronoun “he.”

[10:8]  3 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[10:8]  4 tn The participle λαλοῦσαν (lalousan) has been translated as “began to speak.” The use of πάλιν (palin) indicates an ingressive idea.

[10:8]  5 tn Grk “with me.” The translation “with me” implies that John was engaged in a dialogue with the one speaking to him (e.g., Jesus or an angel) when in reality it was a one-sided conversation, with John doing all the listening. For this reason, μετ᾿ ἐμοῦ (met emou, “with me”) was translated as “to me.”

[10:8]  6 tn Grk “again, saying.” The participle λέγουσαν (legousan) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[10:8]  7 tn The perfect passive participle ἠνεῳγμένον (hnewgmenon) is in second attributive position and has been translated as an attributive adjective.

[7:3]  4 tn See the note on the word “servants” in 1:1.

[7:2]  5 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[7:2]  6 tn Grk “from the rising of the sun.” BDAG 74 s.v. ἀνατολή 2.a takes this as a geographical direction: “ἀπὸ ἀ. ἡλίουfrom the east Rv 7:2; 16:12…simply ἀπὸ ἀ. …21:13.”

[7:2]  7 tn Grk “having,” but v. 3 makes it clear that the angel’s purpose is to seal others with the seal he carries.

[7:2]  8 tn Or “signet” (L&N 6.54).

[7:2]  9 tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[7:2]  10 tn The word “permission” is implied; Grk “to whom it was given to them to damage the earth.”

[7:2]  11 tn Grk “saying.” The participle λέγων (legwn) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.

[12:6]  6 tn Grk “and the woman,” which would be somewhat redundant in English.

[12:6]  7 tn Or “desert.”

[12:6]  8 tn Grk “where she has there a place prepared by God.”

[12:6]  9 tn Grk “so they can take care of her.”

[13:11]  7 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[13:11]  8 sn This second beast is identified in Rev 16:13 as “the false prophet.”

[13:11]  9 tn Grk “and it had,” a continuation of the preceding sentence. On the use of the pronoun “he” to refer to the second beast, see the note on the word “It” in 13:1.

[13:11]  10 tn Or perhaps, “like a ram.” Here L&N 4.25 states, “In the one context in the NT, namely, Re 13:11, in which ἀρνίον refers literally to a sheep, it is used in a phrase referring to the horns of an ἀρνίον. In such a context the reference is undoubtedly to a ‘ram,’ that is to say, the adult male of sheep.” In spite of this most translations render the word “lamb” here to maintain the connection between this false lamb and the true Lamb of the Book of Revelation, Jesus Christ.

[13:11]  11 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[3:17]  8 tn Grk “and have become rich.” The semantic domains of the two terms for wealth here, πλούσιος (plousios, adjective) and πλουτέω (ploutew, verb) overlap considerably, but are given slightly different English translations for stylistic reasons.

[3:17]  9 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[3:17]  10 tn All the terms in this series are preceded by καί (kai) in the Greek text, but contemporary English generally uses connectives only between the last two items in such a series.

[8:10]  9 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[8:10]  10 tn Or “from heaven” (the same Greek word means both “heaven” and “sky”).

[8:10]  11 tn Grk “fell.”

[16:2]  10 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the directions given by the voice from the temple.

[16:2]  11 tn Grk “the first”; the referent (the first angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[16:2]  12 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[16:2]  13 tn Or “ulcerated sores”; the term in the Greek text is singular but is probably best understood as a collective singular.

[16:2]  14 tn Grk ‘the men,” but this is a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") and refers to both men and women.

[17:3]  11 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the angel’s invitation to witness the fate of the prostitute.

[17:3]  12 tn Or “in the spirit.” “Spirit” could refer either to the Holy Spirit or the human spirit, but in either case John was in “a state of spiritual exaltation best described as a trance” (R. H. Mounce, Revelation [NICNT], 75).

[17:3]  13 tn Or “desert.”

[17:3]  14 tn The word “there” is not in the Greek text, but is supplied for stylistic reasons.

[12:14]  12 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present here.

[12:14]  13 tn Or “desert.”

[12:14]  14 tn The word “God” is supplied based on the previous statements made concerning “the place prepared for the woman” in 12:6.

[12:14]  15 tc The reading “and half a time” (καὶ ἥμισυ καιροῦ, kai {hmisu kairou) is lacking in the important uncial C. Its inclusion, however, is supported by {Ì47 א A and the rest of the ms tradition}. There is apparently no reason for the scribe of C to intentionally omit the phrase, and the fact that the word “time” (καιρὸν καὶ καιρούς, kairon kai kairou") appears twice before may indicate a scribal oversight.
