Footnotes
- 59 Here καί (kai) has not been translated due to differences between Greek and English style.
- 60 The phrase “the following” after “write” is supplied to clarify that what follows is the content of what is to be written.
- 61 Grk “These things says [the One] …” See the note on the phrase “this is the solemn pronouncement of” in . The expression This is the solemn pronouncement of reflects an OT idiom. See the note on this phrase in .
- 62 Grk “a flame of fire.” The Greek term πυρός (puros) has been translated as an attributive genitive.
- 63 The precise meaning of the term translated “polished bronze” (χαλκολιβάνῳ, chalkolibanō), which appears no where else in Greek literature outside of the book of Revelation (see 1:15), is uncertain. Without question it is some sort of metal. χαλκολίβανον suggests “fine brass/bronze.” L&N 2.57 takes the word to refer to particularly valuable or fine bronze, but notes that the emphasis here and in Rev 1:15 is more on the lustrous quality of the metal.
