Revelation 5:8

5:8 and when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders threw themselves to the ground21 before the Lamb. Each22 of them had a harp and golden bowls full of incense (which are the prayers of the saints).23

21	tn Grk “fell down.” BDAG 815 s.v. πίπτω 1.b.α.ב. has “fall down, throw oneself to the ground as a sign of devotion or humility, before high-ranking persons or divine beings.”
22	tn Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation.
23	sn This interpretive comment by the author forms a parenthesis in the narrative.
