13:6 So ³  the beast ⁴  opened his mouth to blaspheme against God – to blaspheme both his name and his dwelling place, ⁵  that is, those who dwell in heaven.

14:16 So ⁶  the one seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was reaped.

19:14 The ⁹  armies that are in heaven, dressed in white, clean, fine linen, ¹⁰  were following him on white horses.

[8:1]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the resumption of the topic of the seals.

[8:1]  ² tn Grk “he”; the referent (the Lamb) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:6]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the permission granted to the beast.

[13:6]  ⁴ tn Grk “he” (or “it”); the referent (the beast) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[13:6]  ⁵ tc The reading “and his dwelling place” does not occur in codex C, but its omission is probably due to scribal oversight since the phrase has the same ending as the phrase before it, i.e., they both end in “his” (αὐτοῦ, autou). This is similar to the mistake this scribe made in 12:14 with the omission of the reading “and half a time” (καὶ ἥμισυ καιροῦ, kai {hmisu kairou).

[14:16]  ⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the angel’s directions.

[16:4]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[16:4]  ⁸ tn Grk “the third”; the referent (the third angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[19:14]  ⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

[19:14]  ¹⁰ tn On the term translated “fine linen,” BDAG 185 s.v. βύσσινος states, “made of fine linen, subst. τὸ β. fine linen, linen garment…Rv 18:12, 16; 19:8, 14.”
