Revelation 18:11

Context

18:11 Then 3  the merchants of the earth will weep and mourn for her because no one buys their cargo 4  any longer –

1 tn On the verb λάβῃ (labh) here BDAG 583 s.v. λαμβάνω 2 states, “to take away, remove…with or without the use of force τὰ ἀργύρια take away the silver coins (fr. the temple) Mt 27:6. τὰς ἀσθενείας diseases 8:17. τὸν στέφανον Rv 3:11.”

2 sn Your crown refers to a wreath consisting either of foliage or of precious metals formed to resemble foliage and worn as a symbol of honor, victory, or as a badge of high office – ‘wreath, crown’ (L&N 6.192).

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