Notes
- Rev 6:10 is the ONLY occurrence of despotēs in Revelation
- The martyrs address God with the title of absolute sovereign authority
- Distinguished from kyrios (G2962): despotēs emphasizes absolute, uncontrolled power — the authority of an owner over property
- In divine address contexts (Luke 2:29, Acts 4:24, Rev 6:10): used in prayer acknowledging God's sovereign control over events
