[12:6]  1 tn Grk “and the woman,” which would be somewhat redundant in English.

[12:6]  2 tn Or “desert.”

[12:6]  3 tn Grk “where she has there a place prepared by God.”

[12:6]  4 tn Grk “so they can take care of her.”

[14:20]  5 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[14:20]  6 sn The winepress was stomped. See Isa 63:3, where Messiah does this alone (usually several individuals would join in the process).

[14:20]  7 tn L&N 6.7 states, “In Re 14:20 the reference to a bit and bridle is merely an indication of measurement, that is to say, the height of the bit and bridle from the ground, and one may reinterpret this measurement as ‘about a meter and a half’ or ‘about five feet.’”

[14:20]  8 tn Grk “1,600 stades.” A stade was a measure of length about 607 ft (185 m). Thus the distance here would be 184 mi or 296 km.

[16:17]  9 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “finally” to indicate the conclusion of the seven bowl judgments.

[16:17]  10 tn Grk “the seventh”; the referent (the seventh angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[18:15]  13 tn Grk “the merchants [sellers] of these things.”

[18:15]  14 tn Grk “her torment, weeping.” Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started in the translation by supplying the words “They will” here.
