tn An allusion to Isa 49:10. The phrase “burning heat” is one word in Greek (καῦμα, kauma) that refers to a burning, intensely-felt heat. See BDAG 536 s.v.

tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “then” to indicate the implied sequence of events within the vision.

tn Grk “they fell down on their faces.” 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.”

tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “now” because the clause it introduces is clearly resumptive.

tn Grk “saw.”

tn Grk “glory”; but often in the sense of splendor, brightness, or radiance (see L&N 14.49).
