Footnotes

  1. 40 On ὀπώρα (opōra) L&N 3.34 states, “ἡ ὀπώρα σου τῆς ἐπιθυμίας τῆς ψυχῆς ‘the ripe fruit for which you longed’ Re 18:14. In this one occurrence of ὀπώρα in the NT, ‘ripe fruit’ is to be understood in a figurative sense of ‘good things.’ ”
  2. 41 Grk “you desired in your soul.”
  3. 42 On λιπαρός (liparos) states, “luxury Rv 18:14.”
  4. 43 On τὰ λαμπρά (ta lampra) λαμπρός 4 states, “splendor … in which a rich man takes delight (cp. Jos., 12, 220 δωρεὰς δοὺς λαμπράς) Rv 18:14.”
  5. 44 Verse 14 is set in parentheses because in it the city, Babylon, is addressed directly in second person. This verse forms a parenthetical aside in the narrative.
