Vincent's Word Studies in the NT

Revelation 14:6

In the midst of heaven [ε ν μ ε σ ο υ ρ α ν η μ α τ ι]. Rev., in mid - heaven. See on ch. Revelation 8:13.

The everlasting Gospel (eujaggelion aijwnion). No article. Hence Rev., an eternal Gospel. Milligan thinks this is to be understood in the same sense as prophesying (ch. 10 11). Aijwnion includes more than mere duration in time. It is applied to that of which time is not a measure. As applied to the Gospel it marks its likeness to Him whose being is not bounded by time.

To preach unto [ε υ α γ γ ε λ ι σ α ι ε π ι]. Rev., proclaim, which is better, because more general and wider in meaning. Epi which is omitted from the Rec. Tex. is over, throughout the extent of. Compare Matthew 24:14. That dwell [κ α τ ο ι κ ο υ ν τ α ς]. Read kaqhmenouv that sit. So Rev., in margin. Compare Matthew 4:16; Luke 1:79.
