Footnotes

  1. Revelation 22:6 That is, the angel speaking the words of Jesus to John.
  2. Revelation 22:6 Or, faithful.
  3. Revelation 22:6 That is, human spirits; or, spiritual gifts, as in 1 Cor 14:12.
  4. Revelation 22:6 That is, the one speaking here.
  5. Revelation 22:6 to show... quickly. Same phrase as in 1:1. This is the conclusion of the whole book.
  6. Revelation 22:7 As in 16:15, Christ interjects through the angel speaking for Him; or, Christ is speaking directly to John.
  7. Revelation 22:8 If the angel stated v 7 on behalf of the One who sent him (v 6), John’s confusion is understandable.
