[7:15]  1 tn Or “worship.” The word here is λατρεύω (latreuw).

[7:15]  2 tn Grk “will spread his tent over them,” normally an idiom for taking up residence with someone, but when combined with the preposition ἐπί (epi, “over”) the idea is one of extending protection or shelter (BDAG 929 s.v. σκηνόω).

[9:6]  3 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[9:6]  4 tn Grk “men”; but ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") is used in a generic sense here of both men and women.

[9:6]  5 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[9:6]  6 tn The phrase “not be able to” was used in the translation to emphasize the strong negation (οὐ μή, ou mh) in the Greek text.

[10:7]  5 tn Grk “But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel.”

[10:7]  6 tn The aorist ἐτελέσθη (etelesqh) has been translated as a proleptic (futuristic) aorist (ExSyn 564 cites this verse as an example).

[10:7]  7 tn The time of the action described by the aorist εὐηγγέλισεν (euhngelisen) seems to be past with respect to the aorist passive ἐτελέσθη (etelesqh). This does not require that the prophets in view here be OT prophets. They may actually refer to the martyrs in the church (so G. B. Caird, Revelation [HNTC], 129).

[10:7]  8 tn See the note on the word “servants” in 1:1.

[11:9]  7 tn The word “every” is not in the Greek text, but is implied by the following list.

[11:9]  8 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]  9 tn Or “to be buried.”

[11:11]  9 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[11:11]  10 tn Grk “fell upon.”

[16:14]  11 tn BDAG 699 s.v. οἰκουμένη 1 states, “the inhabited earth, the worldὅλη ἡ οἰκ. the whole inhabited earthMt 24:14; Ac 11:28; Rv 3:10; 16:14.”

[16:14]  12 tn On this word BDAG 755 s.v. παντοκράτωρ states, “the Almighty, All-Powerful, Omnipotent (One) only of God…() κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὁ π. …Rv 1:8; 4:8; 11:17; 15:3; 16:7; 21:22.”

[18:8]  13 tn Grk “For this reason, her plagues will come.”

[18:8]  14 tn Grk “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).

[18:8]  15 tn This is the same Greek word (πένθος, penqo") translated “grief” in vv. 7-8.

[18:8]  16 tn Here “burned down” was used to translate κατακαυθήσεται (katakauqhsetai) because a city is in view.

[20:10]  15 tn Or “misled.”

[20:10]  16 tn Traditionally, “brimstone.”

[20:10]  17 tn The verb in this clause is elided. In keeping with the previous past tenses some translations supply a past tense verb here (“were”), but in view of the future tense that follows (“they will be tormented”), a present tense verb was used to provide a transition from the previous past tense to the future tense that follows.
