[5:4]  ¹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of no one being found worthy to open the scroll.

[5:4]  ² tn Grk “much.”

[6:13]  ³ tn Or “in heaven” (the same Greek word means both “heaven” and “sky”). The genitive τοῦ οὐρανοῦ (tou ouranou) is taken as a genitive of place.

[6:13]  ⁴ tn Grk “throws [off]”; the indicative verb has been translated as a participle due to English style.

[6:13]  ⁵ tn L&N 3.37 states, “a fig produced late in the summer season (and often falling off before it ripens) – ‘late fig.’ ὡς συκὴ βάλλει τοὺς ὀλύνθους αὐτῆς ὑπὸ ἀνέμου μεγάλου σειομένη ‘as the fig tree sheds its late figs when shaken by a great wind’ Re 6:13. In the only context in which ὄλυνθος occurs in the NT (Re 6:13), one may employ an expression such as ‘unripe fig’ or ‘fig which ripens late.’”

[6:13]  ⁶ tn Grk “great wind.”

[8:1]  ⁷ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” to indicate the resumption of the topic of the seals.

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

[10:3]  ⁹ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

[12:13]  ¹⁰ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” because the clause it introduces is clearly resumptive.

[12:13]  ¹¹ tn Grk “saw.”

[16:11]  ¹² tn Grk “pains” (the same term in Greek [πόνος, ponos] as the last word in v. 11, here translated “sufferings” because it is plural). BDAG 852 s.v. 2 states, “ἐκ τοῦ π. in pain…Rv 16:10; pl. (Gen 41:51; Jos., C. Ap. 2, 146; Test. Jud. 18:4) ἐκ τῶν π. …because of their sufferings vs. 11.”

[16:11]  ¹³ tn Or “ulcerated sores” (see 16:2).

[16:11]  ¹⁴ tn Grk “and they did not repent.” Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but nevertheless” to express the contrast here.

[16:11]  ¹⁵ tn Grk “they did not repent” The addition of “still refused” reflects the hardness of people’s hearts in the context.
