NETBible

NET Notes

¹tn Grk “six wings apiece,” but this is redundant with “each one” in English.

²tn Some translations render ἔσωθεν (eswqen) as “under [its] wings,” but the description could also mean “filled all around on the outside and on the inside with eyes.” Since the referent is not available to the interpreter, the exact force is difficult to determine.

³tn Or “They never stop saying day and night.”

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

⁴sn A quotation from (or an allusion to) Isa 6:3.
