[3:20]  ¹ tn Grk “Behold.”

[3:20]  ² tn Grk “come in to him.”

[3:20]  sn The expression in Greek does not mean entrance into the person, as is popularly taken, but entrance into a room or building toward the person. See ExSyn 380-82. Some interpreters understand the door here to be the door to the Laodicean church, and thus a collective or corporate image rather than an individual one.

[5:5]  ³ tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence within the narrative.

[5:5]  ⁴ tn Grk “says” (a historical present).

[5:5]  ⁵ tn The present imperative with μή (mh) is used here to command cessation of an action in progress (ExSyn 724 lists this verse as an example).

[5:5]  ⁶ tn Or “has been victorious”; traditionally, “has overcome.”

[5:5]  ⁷ tn The infinitive has been translated as an infinitive of result here.

[22:18]  ⁸ tn Grk “written.”
