10:1–11:14 This interlude between the sixth and seventh trumpets is divided into two parts: (1) the seven thunders and the small scroll (10:1-11), and (2) the two witnesses (11:1-13). The interlude ends with the announcement that the second terror is finished (11:14).
10:1 another mighty angel (see 5:2; 7:2; cp. 1:12-16): This angel appears similar to the huge bronze Colossus that stood as a symbol of human power in the harbor of Rhodes for several decades before it was toppled by an earthquake in the late 200s BC. The statue still lay broken at the time that John wrote Revelation. It was about 100 feet tall and represented the sun god, Helios. The angel was surrounded by a cloud, suggesting that he dwarfed the Rhodes statue and, by implication, all idols. The rainbow over his head is a reminder that the enthroned God is encircled by a rainbow (4:3), a biblical symbol of God’s covenant with humanity (Gen 9:8-17).
Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
περιβεβλημένον νεφέλην
/having_been/_clothed ˱in˲_/a/_cloud
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: “whose clothing was a cloud”
Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
περιβεβλημένον νεφέλην
/having_been/_clothed ˱in˲_/a/_cloud
John speaks of the angel as if he were wearing a cloud as his clothing. This expression could be understood as figurative. However, because very unusual things were often seen in visions, it could also be understood as a literally true statement in its context. Alternate translation: “in the midst of a cloud”
Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / simile
καὶ τὸ πρόσωπον αὐτοῦ ὡς ὁ ἥλιος, καὶ οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ ὡς στῦλοι πυρός
and and and the face ˱of˲_him like the sun and the feet ˱of˲_him like pillars ˱of˲_fire
The point of these comparisons is that the angel’s face was very bright, like the sun, and that the angel’s feet were glowing like fire. If it would be helpful in your language, you could make these points explicitly. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “The angel’s face was very bright, like the sun, and his feet were glowing as if they were on fire”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
οἱ πόδες αὐτοῦ
the feet ˱of˲_him
Since John compares the feet of the angel to pillars, it is likely that by feet he means “legs” by association. If it would be helpful in your language, you could use an equivalent expression or express the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “his legs”
