Footnotes

  1. Revelation 16:13 Frogs: an allusion to the second plague of Egypt (see Ex 7:26—8:11).
  2. Revelation 16:15 This verse interrupts the text. It fits in better in the literary atmosphere of the letters to the Churches, especially Rev 3:3-4, 18. Blessed: the third beatitude (see note on Rev 1:3).
