NET Notes

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

²tn Traditionally, “great,” but μέγας (megas) here refers to size rather than importance.

³tn Or “and the sky.” The same Greek word means both “heaven” and “sky,” and context usually determines which is meant. In this apocalyptic scene, however, it is difficult to be sure what referent to assign the term.

⁴tn Or “vanished.”

⁴sn The phrase the earth and the heaven fled from his presence can be understood (1) as visual imagery representing the fear of corruptible matter in the presence of God, but (2) it can also be understood more literally as the dissolution of the universe as we know it in preparation for the appearance of the new heaven and new earth (Rev 21:1).
