uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: translate-transliterate

ὁ Ἀμήν

the Amen

See how you translated the word Amen in [1:5](../01/05.md), and see the discussion in the General Introduction to Revelation of how to translate this word.

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / doublet

ὁ πιστὸς καὶ ἀληθινός

the the ¬the ¬the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῆς ἐν Λαοδικείᾳ ἐκκλησίας γράψον Τάδε λέγει ὁ Ἀμήν ὁ μάρτυς ὁ πιστός καί ὁ ἀληθινός ἡ ἀρχή τῆς κτίσεως τοῦ Θεοῦ)

The terms faithful and true mean similar things. Jesus is using the two terms together for emphasis. If it would be clearer for your readers, you could express the emphasis with a single phrase. Alternate translation: [entirely faithful]

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / possession

ἡ ἀρχὴ τῆς κτίσεως τοῦ Θεοῦ

the (Some words not found in SR-GNT: Καί τῷ ἀγγέλῳ τῆς ἐν Λαοδικείᾳ ἐκκλησίας γράψον Τάδε λέγει ὁ Ἀμήν ὁ μάρτυς ὁ πιστός καί ὁ ἀληθινός ἡ ἀρχή τῆς κτίσεως τοῦ Θεοῦ)

Jesus is most likely using this possessive form to describe himself as the one who began the creation of God, that is, the one through whom God created all things. Jesus is likely using this phrase to mean the same thing as he does when he describes himself as “the alpha” or “the first.” Jesus is not saying that he was the first creature God created. Jesus is not a created being, he is the eternally begotten Son of God. Alternate translation: [the one through whom God created all things]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

3:14 Laodicea, situated 40 miles (65 kilometers) southeast of Philadelphia, was the economic and judicial center of a metropolitan region that included Colosse and Hierapolis. The citizens of Laodicea were very proud of their self-sufficiency. After a severe earthquake (AD 60), Laodicea refused aid from Rome and rebuilt their city themselves (Tacitus, Annals 14.27), making it very beautiful.
• the Amen: Used as an oath, “Amen” is a promise of truth (Isa 65:16). Jesus is the truth (John 8:32; 14:6), and his message is authenticated by the truthfulness and reliability of his word.
• The description of Christ as the faithful and true witness declares that he knew them as they really were: Though wealthy and proud of their status and accomplishments, they were not measuring up to God’s expectations.
