νῆσος. א reads βουνός.

ἐκινήθησαν. א* reads ἐκίνησαν; A ἀπεκείνησαν.

14. ἀπεχωρίσθη. A. V[267] departed, i.e. parted asunder. The verb depart was so used (only in a transitive sense) in the Marriage Service until the last revision of the Prayer Book, “till death us depart,” i.e. “till death part us.” Here we still have a reference to Isaiah 34:4. The word for “scroll” is the same as that rendered “book” in c. v. &c.

[267] Authorised Version.

πᾶν ὄρος καὶ νῆσος. Cf. Revelation 16:20. There the convulsion is greater than here: and even there it does not imply quite so much as Revelation 20:11—a fact to be remembered in the interpretation of this passage.
