Context17:9 (This requires 8 a mind that has wisdom.) The seven heads are seven mountains 9 the woman sits on. They are also seven kings:
1 tn Because of the length and complexity of this Greek sentence, a new sentence was started here in the translation by supplying the phrase “I am also aware” to link this English sentence back to “I know” at the beginning of v. 2.
2 tn The Greek word translated “persisted steadfastly” (ὑπομονή, Jupomonh) is the same one translated “steadfast endurance” in v. 2.
3 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style.
4 tn The Greek word πλατεῖα (plateia) refers to a major (broad) street (L&N 1.103).
5 tn Grk “spiritually.”
6 tn Or “forced”; Grk “makes” (ποιεῖ, poiei).
7 tn See the note on the word “servants” in 1:1.
8 tn Grk “Here is the mind that has wisdom.”
9 tn It is important to note that the height of “mountains” versus “hills” or other topographical terms is somewhat relative. In terms of Palestinian topography, Mount Tabor (traditionally regarded as the mount of transfiguration) is some 1,800 ft (550 m) above sea level, while the Mount of Olives is only some 100 ft (30 m) higher than Jerusalem.
