Revelation 11:8-9

11:8 Their ¹  corpses will lie in the street ²  of the great city that is symbolically ³  called Sodom and Egypt, where their Lord was also crucified. 11:9 For three and a half days those from every ⁴  people, tribe, ⁵  nation, and language will look at their corpses, because they will not permit them to be placed in a tomb. ⁶ 

[11:8]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[11:8]  ² tn The Greek word πλατεῖα (plateia) refers to a major (broad) street (L&N 1.103).

[11:8]  ³ tn Grk “spiritually.”

[11:9]  ⁴ tn The word “every” is not in the Greek text, but is implied by the following list.

[11:9]  ⁵ tn The Greek term καί (kai) has not been translated before this and the following items in the list, since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

[11:9]  ⁶ tn Or “to be buried.”
