Episode notes
Intentional Opening
- John altered the traditional epistle opening in Revelation.
- This suggests a deliberate intention behind his choice of words.
Source of the Phrase
- John's phrase "who is and who was and who is to come" is sourced from Exodus 3:14.
- This is evident through the Greek wording and a deliberate grammatical error (solecism).
Challenging Zeus
- John supplements Exodus 3:14 with "who was and who is to come."
- This addition challenges Zeus's supremacy and emphasizes God's control over time.
