Revelation 22:8

Context

22:8 I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things, 1  and when I heard and saw them, 2  I threw myself down 3  to worship at the feet of the angel who was showing them to me.

1 tn Or “I am John, the one who heard and saw these things.”

2 tn The pronoun “them” is not in the Greek text, but is implied. Direct objects were frequently omitted in Greek when clear from the context.

3 tn Grk “I fell down and worshiped at the feet.” BDAG 815 s.v. πίπτω 1.b.α.ב. has “fall down, throw oneself to the ground as a sign of devotion or humility, before high-ranking persons or divine beings.”
