TSNTyndale Study Notes:

9:15 hour and day and month and year: The fourfold time designation for releasing the four angels confirms that even evil forces must observe God’s timing.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἐλύθησαν οἱ τέσσαρες ἄγγελοι, οἱ ἡτοιμασμένοι εἰς τὴν ὥραν, καὶ ἡμέραν, καὶ μῆνα, καὶ ἐνιαυτόν

/were/_loosed the four angels ¬which /having_been/_prepared for the hour and day and month and year

If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “the sixth angel released the four angels whom God had prepared for the hour and day and month and year”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

τὴν ὥραν, καὶ ἡμέραν, καὶ μῆνα, καὶ ἐνιαυτόν

the hour and day and month and year

These words all refer to specific periods of time. John is using them together to emphasize that this is a very specific time. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: “that specific time”

Note 3 topic: translate-fraction

τὸ τρίτον τῶν ἀνθρώπων

the third ¬the ˱of˲_mankind

A third means one part out of three equal parts. Alternate translation: “one out of every three men”
