TSNTyndale Study Notes:

5:1 The scroll, like a dramatic script, details God’s plan for the world (Ps 139:16).
• The right hand represents God’s gracious authority and power (see Rev 1:17, 20).
• The writing on the inside and the outside means that God’s plans for history are full and complete.
• sealed with seven seals: God has put his purposes for history in an impermeable safe (Isa 29:11-12; Dan 8:26). His purposes will be completed only when the seals are broken (see Rev 5:4).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

γεγραμμένον ἔσωθεν καὶ ὄπισθεν

/having_been/_written inside and behind

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: “with writing on the front and the back”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive

κατεσφραγισμένον σφραγῖσιν ἑπτά

/having_been/_sealed_up ˱with˲_seals seven

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. If you need to say who did the action, the context suggests that it was God. It may be helpful to begin a new sentence here. Alternate translation: “God had sealed the scroll with seven seals”
