WK Translation Notes

+
a
"Two-edged" is added before "sharp" by some MSS., contrary to others.
b
The RV excludes "and" before "wrath" (indignation) which the T. R. had along with some copies, contrary to most of the later MSS.
c
There is no good reason why those who said "God, the Almighty" (or some equivalent) elsewhere in Rev. (1:8, 4:8, 11:17, 15:3, 16:7, 14, 19:6), should say, "Almighty God" without the English definite article in this verse.
