Wahyu 7:1

21:4 He ¹⁶  will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death will not exist any more – or mourning, or crying, or pain, for the former things have ceased to exist.” ¹⁷ 

[7:17]  ¹ sn An allusion to Isa 25:8.

[10:7]  ² tn Grk “But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel.”

[10:7]  ³ tn The aorist ἐτελέσθη (etelesqh) has been translated as a proleptic (futuristic) aorist (ExSyn 564 cites this verse as an example).

[10:7]  ⁴ tn The time of the action described by the aorist εὐηγγέλισεν (euhngelisen) seems to be past with respect to the aorist passive ἐτελέσθη (etelesqh). This does not require that the prophets in view here be OT prophets. They may actually refer to the martyrs in the church (so G. B. Caird, Revelation [HNTC], 129).

[10:7]  ⁵ tn See the note on the word “servants” in 1:1.

[10:9]  ⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the instructions given by the voice.

[10:9]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[10:9]  ⁸ tn The words “the scroll” are not in the Greek text, but are implied. Direct objects were frequently omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

[10:9]  ⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[11:11]  ¹⁰ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[11:11]  ¹¹ tn Grk “fell upon.”

[12:4]  ¹² tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate that this remark is virtually parenthetical.

[12:4]  ¹³ tn Grk “its”; the referent (the dragon) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[12:4]  ¹⁴ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[17:10]  ¹⁵ tn That is, one currently reigns.

[21:4]  ¹⁶ tn Grk “God, and he.” 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.

[21:4]  ¹⁷ tn For the translation of ἀπέρχομαι (apercomai; here ἀπῆλθαν [aphlqan]) L&N 13.93 has “to go out of existence – ‘to cease to exist, to pass away, to cease.’”
