NET © Notes |
1 tn Or “who is victorious”; traditionally, “who overcomes.” 2 tn Grk “I will make him,” but the pronoun (αὐτόν, auton, “him”) is redundant in contemporary English and has not been translated here. 3 tn Here καί (kai) has not been translated because of differences between Greek and English style. 4 sn This description of the city of my God is parenthetical, explaining further the previous phrase and interrupting the list of “new names” given here. |
