2:5Therefore, remember from what high state13 you have fallen and repent! Do14 the deeds you did at the first;15 if not, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place—that is, if you do not repent.16
Footnotes
- 13 Grk “from where,” but status is in view rather than physical position. On this term πόθεν 1 states, “from what place? from where?… In imagery μνημόνευε πόθεν πέπτωκες remember from what (state) you have fallen Rv 2:5.”
- 14 Grk “and do” (a continuation of the previous sentence in the Greek text). For stylistic reasons in English a new sentence was started here in the translation. The repeated mention of repenting at the end of the verse suggests that the intervening material (“do the deeds you did at first”) specifies how the repentance is to be demonstrated.
- 15 Or “you did formerly.”
- 16 Although the final clause is somewhat awkward, it is typical of the style of Revelation.
