tn In the Greek text there is a shift to the present tense here; the previous verbs translated “had” are imperfects.

tn See BDAG 352 s.v. ἐξουσία 2, “potential or resource to command, control, or govern, capability, might, power.

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

tn Grk “the fourth”; the referent (the fourth angel) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

tn Grk “men,” but this is a generic use of ἄνθρωπος (anqrwpo") and refers to both men and women.
