Revelation 6:15

Context
6:15 Then 1  the kings of the earth, the 2  very important people, the generals, 3  the rich, the powerful, and everyone, slave 4  and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains.

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

2 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated; nor is it translated before each of the following categories, since English normally uses a coordinating conjunction only between the last two elements in a series of three or more.

3 tn Grk “chiliarchs.” A chiliarch was normally a military officer commanding a thousand soldiers, but here probably used of higher-ranking commanders like generals (see L&N 55.15; cf. Rev 6:15).

4 tn See the note on the word “servants” in 1:1.
