[13:5] 5 tn For the translation “ruling authority” for ἐξουσία (exousia) see L&N 37.35.
[21:10] 6 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the angel’s invitation.
[21:10] 7 tn Or “in the spirit.” “Spirit” could refer either to the Holy Spirit or the human spirit, but in either case John was in “a state of spiritual exaltation best described as a trance” (R. H. Mounce, Revelation [NICNT], 75).
