TSNTyndale Study Notes:

2:12 Christ’s sharp two-edged sword indicates that these Christians would receive the Lord’s most severe judgment (see 2:16; see study note on 1:16). The two-edged sword was the Roman symbol of authority, which typified Pergamum as capital of the province. If the church failed, the true governor of the city (Christ) would turn his authority against them.


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: writing-symlanguage

τὴν ῥομφαίαν τὴν δίστομον τὴν ὀξεῖαν

the sword ¬the double_edged ¬the sharp

See how you translated this phrase in 1:16.
