OT.filter - rwp prepare:

rwp@Revelation:8:6 @{Prepared themselves} (\htoimasan hautous\). First aorist active indicative of \hetoimaz\. They knew the signal and got ready. {To sound} (\hina salpissin\). Sub-final (object) clause with \hina\ and the first aorist ingressive active subjunctive of \salpiz\. The infinitive could have been used.

rwp@Revelation:9:15 @{Were loosed} (\eluthsan\). First aorist (ingressive) passive indicative of \lu\, "were let loose." {Which had been prepared} (\hoi htoimasmenoi\). Perfect passive articular participle of \hetoimaz\, to make ready (\hetoimos\), in a state of readiness prepared by God (12:6; strkjv@16:12; strkjv@Matthew:25:34|). {For the hour and day and month and year} (\eis tn hran kai hmeran kai mna kai eniauton\). For this use of \eis\ with \htoimasmenon\ see strkjv@2Timothy:2:21|. All preparation over, the angels are waiting for the signal to begin. {That they should kill} (\hina apokteinsin\). The same idiom in verse 5| about the fifth trumpet, which brought torture. This one brings death.

rwp@Revelation:14:10 @{He also shall drink} (\kai autos pietai\). Future middle of \pin\. Certainty for him as for Babylon and her paramours (16:17|). {Of the wine of the wrath of God} (\ek tou oinou tou thumou tou theou\). Note \ek\ (partitive) after \pietai\. In strkjv@16:19; strkjv@19:15| we have both \thumou\ and \orgs\ (wrath of the anger of God). The white heat of God's anger, held back through the ages, will be turned loose. {Prepared unmixed} (\tou kekerasmenou akratou\). A bold and powerful oxymoron, "the mixed unmixed." \Akratos\ is an old adjective (alpha privative and \kerannumi\ to mix) used of wine unmixed with water (usually so mixed), here only in N.T. Songs:it is strong wine mixed (perfect passive participle of \kerannumi\) with spices to make it still stronger (cf. strkjv@Psalms:75:9|). {In the cup of his anger} (\en ti potrii ts orgs autou\). Both \thumos\ (vehement fury) and \org\ (settled indignation). {He shall be tormented} (\basanisthsetai\). Future passive of \basaniz\. See strkjv@9:5; strkjv@11:10|. {With fire and brimstone} (\en puri kai theii\). See strkjv@9:17| for fire and brimstone and also strkjv@19:20; strkjv@20:10; strkjv@21:8|. The imagery is already in strkjv@Genesis:19:24; strkjv@Isaiah:30:33; strkjv@Ezekiel:38:22|. {In the presence of the holy angels and in the presence of the Lamb} (\enpion aggeln hagin kai enpion tou arniou\). This holy environment adds to the punishment.

rwp@Revelation:20:11 @{A great white throne} (\thronon megan leukon\). Here \megan\ (great) is added to the throne pictures in strkjv@4:4; strkjv@20:4|. The scene is prepared for the last judgment often mentioned in the N.T. (Matthew:25:31-46; strkjv@Romans:14:10; strkjv@2Corinthians:5:10|). "The absolute purity of this Supreme Court is symbolized by the colour of the Throne" (Swete) as in strkjv@Daniel:7:9; strkjv@Psalms:9:1; strkjv@97:2|. The name of God is not mentioned, but the Almighty Father sits upon the throne (4:2f.,9; strkjv@5:1,7,13; strkjv@6:16; strkjv@7:10,15; strkjv@19:4; strkjv@21:5|), and the Son sits there with him (Hebrews:1:3|) and works with the Father (John:5:19-21; strkjv@10:30; strkjv@Matthew:25:31ff.; strkjv@Acts:17:31; strkjv@2Corinthians:5:10; strkjv@2Timothy:4:1|). {From whose face the earth and the heaven fled away} (\hou apo prospou ephugen h ge kai ho ouranos\). Second aorist (prophetic) active of \pheug\. See strkjv@16:20|. The non-eternity of matter is a common teaching in the O.T. (Psalms:97:5; strkjv@102:27; strkjv@Isaiah:51:6|) as in the N.T. (Mark:13:31; strkjv@2Peter:3:10|). {Was found} (\heureth\). First aorist passive indicative of \heurisk\. All is now spiritual. Even scientists today are speaking of the non-eternity of the universe.
