Revelation 7:16

7:16 They will never go hungry or be thirsty again, and the sun will not beat down on them, nor any burning heat, ¹ 

Revelation 16:9

16:9 Thus ²  people ³  were scorched by the terrible heat, ⁴  yet ⁵  they blasphemed the name of God, who has ruling authority ⁶  over these plagues, and they would not repent and give him glory.

[7:16]  ¹ tn An allusion to Isa 49:10. The phrase “burning heat” is one word in Greek (καῦμα, kauma) that refers to a burning, intensely-felt heat. See BDAG 536 s.v.

[16:9]  ² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “thus” to indicate the implied result of the bowl poured on the sun.

[16:9]  ³ tn Grk “men,” but this is a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") and refers to both men and women.

[16:9]  ⁴ tn On this phrase BDAG 536 s.v. καῦμα states, “burning, heat Rv 7:16…καυματίζεσθαι κ. μέγα be burned with a scorching heat 16:9.”

[16:9]  ⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “yet” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[16:9]  ⁶ tn For the translation “ruling authority” for ἐξουσία (exousia) see L&N 37.35.
