Footnotes

  1. 22 Or “wide golden sashes,” but these would not be diagonal, as some modern sashes are, but horizontal. The Greek term can refer to a wide band of cloth or leather worn on the outside of one’s clothing (L&N 6.178).
  2. 23 Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.
  3. 24 Or “anger.”
  4. 25 Grk “power, and no one.” A new sentence was started here in the translation. Here καί (kai) has been translated as “thus” to indicate the implied result of the temple being filled with smoke.
