[19:14]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[19:14]  ² tn On the term translated “fine linen,” BDAG 185 s.v. βύσσινος states, “made of fine linen, subst. τὸ β. fine linen, linen garment…Rv 18:12, 16; 19:8, 14.”

[3:4]  ³ tn Grk “a few names”; here ὄνομα (onoma) is used by figurative extension to mean “person” or “people”; according to L&N 9.19 there is “the possible implication of existence or relevance as individuals.”

[3:4]  ⁴ tn Or “soiled” (so NAB, NRSV, NIV); NCV “have kept their clothes unstained”; CEV “have not dirtied your clothes with sin.”

[3:4]  ⁵ tn The word “dressed” is not in the Greek text, but is implied.

[3:5]  ⁵ tn Or “who overcomes.”

[3:5]  ⁶ tn Grk “thus.”

[3:5]  ¹⁰ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[3:5]  ¹¹ tn Grk “will confess.”

[4:4]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[4:4]  ⁸ tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation by supplying the words “They were” to indicate the connection to the preceding material.

[4:4]  ⁹ sn See the note on the word crown in Rev 3:11.
