Wahyu 15:1

The Final Plagues

15:1 Then ⁶  I saw another great and astounding sign in heaven: seven angels who have seven final plagues ⁷  (they are final because in them God’s anger is completed).

[9:10]  ¹ tn In the Greek text there is a shift to the present tense here; the previous verbs translated “had” are imperfects.

[9:10]  ² tn See BDAG 352 s.v. ἐξουσία 2, “potential or resource to command, control, or govern, capability, might, power.”

[10:10]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the instructions given by the angel.

[10:10]  ⁴ tn Grk “it was.” The idea of taste is implied.

[10:10]  ⁵ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “but” to indicate the contrast present in this context.

[15:1]  ⁶ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[15:1]  ⁷ tn Grk “seven plagues – the last ones.”
