Revelation 17:6

Context
17:6 I saw that the woman was drunk with the blood of the saints and the blood of those who testified to Jesus. 1  I 2  was greatly astounded 3  when I saw her.

1 tn Or “of the witnesses to Jesus.” Here the genitive ᾿Ιησοῦ (Ihsou) is taken as an objective genitive; Jesus is the object of their testimony.

2 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.

3 tn Grk “I marveled a great marvel” (an idiom for great astonishment).
