Revelation 20:14

20:14 Then ¹  Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death – the lake of fire.

Revelation 20:13

20:13 The ²  sea gave up the dead that were in it, and Death ³  and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each one was judged according to his deeds.

Revelation 6:8

6:8 So ⁴  I looked ⁵  and here came ⁶  a pale green ⁷  horse! The ⁸  name of the one who rode it ⁹  was Death, and Hades followed right behind. ¹⁰  They ¹¹  were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill its population with the sword, ¹²  famine, and disease, ¹³  and by the wild animals of the earth.

[20:14]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[20:13]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[20:13]  ³ sn Here Death is personified (cf. 1 Cor 15:55).

[6:8]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the summons by the fourth creature.

[6:8]  ⁴ tc The reading “and I looked” (καὶ εἶδον, kai eidon) or some slight variation (e.g., ἶδον, idon) has excellent ms support ({א A C P 1611}) and its omission seems to have come through the mss that have already placed “and look” (καὶ ἴδε or καὶ βλέπε [kai ide or kai blepe]) after the verb “come” (ἔρχου, ercou) in 6:1. Thus, for these copyists it was redundant to add “and I looked” again.

[6:8]  ⁵ tn The phrase “and here came” expresses the sense of καὶ ἰδού (kai idou).

[6:8]  ⁶ tn A sickly pallor, when referring to persons, or the green color of plants. BDAG 1085 s.v. χλωρός 2 states, “pale, greenish gray…as the color of a pers. in sickness contrasted with appearance in health…so the horse ridden by Death…ἵππος χλωρός Rv 6:8.” Because the color of the horse is symbolic, “pale green” is used in the translation. Cf. NIV, NCV “pale”; NASB “ashen.”

[6:8]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[6:8]  ⁸ tn Grk “the one sitting on it.”

[6:8]  ⁹ tn Grk “And Hades was following with him.” The Greek expression μετ᾿ αὐτοῦ (met’ autou, “with him”) is Semitic and indicates close proximity. The translation “followed right behind” reflects this.

[6:8]  ¹⁰ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.

[6:8]  ¹¹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[6:8]  ¹² tn Grk “with death.” θάνατος (qanatos) can in particular contexts refer to a manner of death, specifically a contagious disease (see BDAG 443 s.v. 3; L&N 23.158).
