Revelation 14:12

Context
14:12 This requires 1  the steadfast endurance 2  of the saints – those who obey 3  God’s commandments and hold to 4  their faith in Jesus. 5 

1 tn Grk “Here is.”

2 tn Or “the perseverance.”

3 tn Grk “who keep.”

4 tn The words “hold to” are implied as a repetition of the participle translated “keep” (οἱ τηροῦντες, Joi throunte").

5 tn Grk “faith of Jesus.” The construction may mean either “faith in Jesus” or “faithful to Jesus.” Either translation implies that ᾿Ιησοῦ (Ihsou) is to be taken as an objective genitive; the difference is more lexical than grammatical because πίστις (pistis) can mean either “faith” or “faithfulness.”
