rwp@Revelation:9:5 @{That they should not kill them} (\hina m apokteinsin autous\). Sub-final object clause (subject of \edoth\) with \hina m\ and the subjunctive of \apoktein\ either present (continued action) or aorist (constative, form the same), the usual construction with \hina\. The locusts are charged to injure men, but not to kill them. {But that they should be tormented} (\all' hina basanisthsontai\). Sub-final clause again with \hina\, but this time with the first future passive indicative (like strkjv@3:9; strkjv@6:4; strkjv@8:3; strkjv@13:12|) of \basaniz\, old verb, to test metals (from \basanos\, strkjv@Matthew:4:24|) by touchstone, then to torture like strkjv@Matthew:8:29|, further in strkjv@Revelation:11:10; strkjv@12:2; strkjv@14:10; strkjv@20:10|. {Five months} (\mnas pente\). Accusative of extent of time. The actual locust is born in the spring and dies at the end of summer (about five months). {Torment} (\basanismos\). Late word for torture, from \basaniz\, in N.T. only in strkjv@Revelation:9:5; strkjv@14:11; strkjv@18:7,10,15|. The wound of the scorpion was not usually fatal, though exceedingly painful. {When it striketh a man} (\hotan paisi anthrpon\). Indefinite temporal clause with \hotan\ and the first aorist active subjunctive of \pai\ (Matthew:26:51|), old verb, to smite, "whenever it smites a man."

rwp@Revelation:20:10 @{Was cast} (\eblth\). First aorist (prophetic, affective) passive indicative of \ball\ (verse 3|). {Into the lake of fire and brimstone} (\eis tn limnn tou puros kai theiou\). As in strkjv@19:20| with the two beasts, as he adds, "where are also the beast and the false prophet" (\hopou kai to thrion kai ho pseudoprophts\). {They shall be tormented} (\basanisthsontai\). Return to the prophetic future of verses 7,8|. For \basaniz\ see strkjv@9:5; strkjv@14:10|. For "day and night" (\hmeras kai nuktos\) see strkjv@4:8; strkjv@7:15; strkjv@12:10; strkjv@14:11|.
