Footnotes
- 1 Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.
- 2 Grk “from the rising of the sun.” ἀνατολή 2.a takes this as a geographical direction: “ἀπὸ ἀ. ἡλίου … from the east Rv 7:2; 16:12 … simply ἀπὸ ἀ.… 21:13.”
- 3 Grk “having,” but v. 3 makes it clear that the angel’s purpose is to seal others with the seal he carries.
- 4 Or “signet” (L&N 6.54).
- 5 Because of the length and complexity of the Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation. Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
- 6 The word “permission” is implied; Grk “to whom it was given to them to damage the earth.”
- 7 Grk “saying.” The participle λέγων (legōn) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated.
