SIL Open Translator’s Notes:

Section 18:1–24: Announcements/Messages about Babylon

In this section, three heavenly beings each announce something about Babylon. The first announcement is that the city is destroyed. Her riches and prosperity have been taken away.

The second announcement is that God’s people should leave Babylon before God destroys her. It also describes how kings and others mourn over the destroyed city.

The third announcement is that Babylon will never be built again.

Other examples of headings for this section are:

An angel announced that Babylon was destroyed, and some groups are sad

Announcements about the destruction of Babylon

Various people talk about Babylon

18:1a

After this I saw another angel descending from heaven

After this I saw: The Greek word that the BSB translates as this is literally “these (things).” It refers to what John had already seen. This clause introduces a new scene in heaven. For example:

After I saw those things, I saw

heaven: Here the word heaven refers to the place where God lives.

18:1b

with great authority,

authority: Here the word authority refers to having the right and power to control or rule over someone or something. For example:

right to rule/govern

power to control

These verses do not say what the angel had authority over. Some languages must say what the angel has authority over. If that is true in your language, refer generally to what the angel might have authority over. For example:

authority over things

18:1c

and the earth was illuminated by his glory.

and the earth was illuminated by his glory: This clause is passive. Some languages must use an active clause. For example:

his splendor brightened the whole earth (GNT)

his glory made the earth bright (NCV)

illuminated: Here this word refers to the angel’s splendor shining on the earth.

glory: The Greek word here is often translated as “splendor” (as the NJB has here). Other ways to translate this word are:

radiance

glorious light

See how you translated this word in 1:6 or 15:8.

uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

ἡ γῆ ἐφωτίσθη ἐκ τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ

the earth ˓was˒_illuminated with the glory ˱of˲_him

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: [his glory illuminated the earth]
