Matthew 24:15¶
ὅταν οὖν ἴδητε τὸ βδέλυγμα τῆς ἐρημώσεως τὸ ῥηθὲν διὰ Δανιὴλ τοῦ προφήτου ἑστὸς ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ ὁ ἀναγινώσκων νοείτω
Key forms: - βδέλυγμα (bdelygma, G946) — Noun.Acc.Neut.Sg — "abomination" - τῆς ἐρημώσεως (tēs erēmōseōs, G2050) — Noun.Gen.Fem.Sg — "of desolation" - τὸ ῥηθὲν (to rhēthen) — Verb.Aor.Pass.Ptcp.Nom.Neut.Sg — "which was spoken" - διὰ Δανιὴλ τοῦ προφήτου — "through/by Daniel the prophet" - ἑστὸς (hestos) — Verb.Perf.Act.Ptcp.Nom.Neut.Sg — "standing" (perfect: currently standing) - ἐν τόπῳ ἁγίῳ — "in a holy place" - ὁ ἀναγινώσκων νοείτω — "let the reader understand" — editorial aside
NOTE: Jesus explicitly attributes "abomination of desolation" to "Daniel the prophet" and treats it as prophetically significant. The neuter participle hestos (standing) should grammatically match bdelygma (neuter), which it does. Mark 13:14 uses masculine participle hestēkota, a grammatical anomaly possibly suggesting a personal figure.
2 Thessalonians 2:3-4¶
2:3: μή τις ὑμᾶς ἐξαπατήσῃ κατὰ μηδένα τρόπον· ὅτι ἐὰν μὴ ἔλθῃ ἡ ἀποστασία πρῶτον καὶ ἀποκαλυφθῇ ὁ ἄνθρωπος τῆς ἀνομίας ὁ υἱὸς τῆς ἀπωλείας
2:4: ὁ ἀντικείμενος καὶ ὑπεραιρόμενος ἐπὶ πάντα λεγόμενον θεὸν ἢ σέβασμα ὥστε αὐτὸν εἰς τὸν ναὸν τοῦ θεοῦ καθίσαι ἀποδεικνύντα ἑαυτὸν ὅτι ἐστὶν θεός
Key forms: - ἡ ἀποστασία (hē apostasia) — Noun.Nom.Fem.Sg — "the apostasy/falling away" - ἀποκαλυφθῇ (apokalyphthē) — Verb.Aor.Pass.Subj.3s — "shall be revealed" - ὁ ἄνθρωπος τῆς ἀνομίας (ho anthrōpos tēs anomias) — "the man of lawlessness" - ὁ υἱὸς τῆς ἀπωλείας (ho huios tēs apōleias) — "the son of perdition" - ὁ ἀντικείμενος (ho antikeimenos) — Verb.Pres.Mid.Ptcp.Nom.Masc.Sg — "the one opposing" - ὑπεραιρόμενος (hyperairomenos) — Verb.Pres.Mid.Ptcp.Nom.Masc.Sg — "exalting himself above" - ἐπὶ πάντα λεγόμενον θεὸν ἢ σέβασμα — "above every so-called god or object of worship" - εἰς τὸν ναὸν τοῦ θεοῦ καθίσαι — "to sit in the temple of God" - ἀποδεικνύντα ἑαυτὸν ὅτι ἐστὶν θεός — "showing himself that he is God"
NOTE: Parallels to Dan 11:36-37 (exalts himself above every god, speaks against the God of gods). The verbal links: hyperairomenos ↔ yitromem (Dan 11:36); anthrōpos tēs anomias ↔ the self-exalting king. Paul's "temple of God" language extends beyond physical temple to metaphorical/eschatological.
Revelation 13:5¶
καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ στόμα λαλοῦν μεγάλα καὶ βλασφημίας καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ἐξουσία ποιῆσαι μῆνας τεσσεράκοντα δύο
Key forms: - ἐδόθη (edothē) — Verb.Aor.Pass.Ind.3s — "was given" (divine passive) - στόμα λαλοῦν μεγάλα — "a mouth speaking great things" — echoes Dan 7:8,20 (pum memalil ravrevan) - βλασφημίας (blasphēmias) — "blasphemies" - ἐξουσία (exousia) — "authority/power" - ποιῆσαι (poiēsai) — Verb.Aor.Act.Inf — "to do/make/continue" - μῆνας τεσσεράκοντα δύο — "42 months" = 3.5 years
NOTE: Direct allusion to Dan 7:25 (speaking against Most High, given authority for a time). The 42 months = 3.5 years = "time, times, half a time." Rev applies this beyond Antiochus to a broader eschatological figure.
Revelation 13:7¶
καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ποιῆσαι πόλεμον μετὰ τῶν ἁγίων καὶ νικῆσαι αὐτούς καὶ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ἐξουσία ἐπὶ πᾶσαν φυλὴν καὶ λαὸν καὶ γλῶσσαν καὶ ἔθνος
Key forms: - πόλεμον μετὰ τῶν ἁγίων — "war with the saints" — echoes Dan 7:21 ('avdah qrav 'im qaddishin) - νικῆσαι αὐτούς — "to conquer/overcome them" — echoes Dan 7:21 (yakhlah lehon) - ἐπὶ πᾶσαν φυλὴν καὶ λαὸν καὶ γλῶσσαν καὶ ἔθνος — "over every tribe, people, tongue, nation" — universal scope exceeds Antiochus
