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. |
