(1.0031326415094) (Rev 19:17)

tn This is the same Greek word (δεῖπνον, deipnon) used in 19:9.

(0.49961103773585) (Luk 14:12)

tn The meaning of the two terms for meals here, ἄριστον (ariston) and δεῖπνον (deipnon), essentially overlap (L&N 23.22). Translators usually try to find two terms for a meal to use as equivalents (e.g., lunch and dinner, dinner and supper, etc.). In this translation “dinner” and “banquet” have been used, since the expected presence of rich neighbors later in the verse suggests a rather more elaborate occasion than an ordinary meal.
