Wahyu 10:7

10:7 But in the days ⁴  when the seventh angel is about to blow his trumpet, the mystery of God is completed, ⁵  just as he has ⁶  proclaimed to his servants ⁷  the prophets.”

[2:26]  ¹ tn Or “who is victorious”; traditionally, “who overcomes.”

[2:26]  ² tn Grk “keeps.” In a context that speaks of “holding on to what you have,” the idea here is one of continued faithful behavior (BDAG 1002 s.v. τηρέω 3 has “ὁ τηρῶν τὰ ἔργα μου the one who takes my deeds to heart Rv 2:26”).

[2:26]  ³ tn Or “over the Gentiles” (the same Greek word may be translated “Gentiles” or “nations”).

[10:7]  ⁴ tn Grk “But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel.”

[10:7]  ⁵ tn The aorist ἐτελέσθη (etelesqh) has been translated as a proleptic (futuristic) aorist (ExSyn 564 cites this verse as an example).

[10:7]  ⁶ 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]  ⁷ tn See the note on the word “servants” in 1:1.
