[9:13]  1 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[9:13]  2 tc ‡ Several key mss (Ì47 א1 A 0207 1611 2053 2344 pc lat syh co) lack the word τεσσάρων (tessarwn, “four”) before κεράτων (keratwn, “horns”). The word seems to have been added by scribes because a “horned” altar (described in the OT [Exod 30:2, 10]) could have only four “horns” or projections at the corners. NA27 includes the word in brackets, indicating doubts as to its authenticity.

[16:12]  3 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[16:12]  4 tn Grk “the sixth”; the referent (the sixth angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[16:12]  5 tn Grk “and its water was dried up.” Here the passive construction has been translated as an active one.

[16:12]  6 tn Grk “in order that the way might be prepared.” Here the passive construction has been translated as an active one.

[16:12]  7 tn Grk “from the rising of the sun.” BDAG 74 s.v. ἀνατολή 2.a takes this as a geographical direction: “ἀπὸ ἀ. ἡλίουfrom the east Rv 7:2; 16:12; simply ἀπὸ ἀ. …21:13.”

[21:20]  5 sn Onyx (also called sardonyx) is a semiprecious stone that comes in various colors (L&N 2.35).

[21:20]  6 sn Carnelian is a semiprecious gemstone, usually red in color (L&N 2.36).

[21:20]  7 sn Chrysolite refers to either quartz or topaz, golden yellow in color (L&N 2.37).

[21:20]  8 sn Beryl is a semiprecious stone, usually blue-green or green in color (L&N 2.38).

[21:20]  9 sn Chrysoprase is a greenish type of quartz (L&N 2.40).

[21:20]  10 sn Jacinth is a semiprecious stone, probably blue in color (also called “hyacinth,” but that translation is not used here because of possible confusion with the flower of the same name). See L&N 2.41.
