Revelation 14:10

Context
14:10 that person 1  will also drink of the wine of God’s anger 2  that has been mixed undiluted in the cup of his wrath, and he will be tortured with fire and sulfur 3  in front of the holy angels and in front of the Lamb.

Revelation 14:19

Context
14:19 So 4  the angel swung his sickle over the earth and gathered the grapes from the vineyard 5  of the earth and tossed them into the great 6  winepress of the wrath of God.

1 tn Grk “he himself.”

2 tn The Greek word for “anger” here is θυμός (qumos), a wordplay on the “passion” (θυμός) of the personified city of Babylon in 14:8.

3 tn Traditionally, “brimstone.”

4 tn Here καί (kai) has been translated as “so” to indicate the implied result of the angel’s directions.

5 tn Or “vine.” BDAG 54 s.v. ἄμπελος a states, “τρυγᾶν τοὺς βότρυας τῆς ἀ. τῆς γῆς to harvest the grapes fr. the vine of the earth (i.e. fr. the earth, symbol. repr. as a grapevine) Rv 14:18f; but may be taking on the meaning of ἀμπελών, as oft. in pap., possibly PHib. 70b, 2 [III bc].” The latter alternative has been followed in the translation (ἀμπελών = “vineyard”).

6 tn Although the gender of μέγαν (megan, masc.) does not match the gender of ληνόν (lhnon, fem.) it has been taken to modify that word (as do most English translations).
