I just went to my Concordance to look up what the angel said about time ending, in Revelation, and couldn't find it. I'm interested. Could you give me chapter and verse?
Rev 10:6 [KJV]
And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:
Though upon looking it up I see other translations have delay instead of time. Interesting; I really hadn't thought of that (e.g. there's not more time!).

Thanks very much. It was an online Concordance and I didn’t know which translation would work ;o)

This is a very precise translation of the Koine of Revelation 10:5-7, for your edification:

==========

5. And the angel, whom I beheld remaining standing upon the sea and upon the land, lifted his hand unto Heaven

6. and swore by The One Absolutely Living for ever and evermore, Who created The Heaven and the things in it and the Earth and the things in it and the sea and the things in it, that space of time shall no longer be.

7. But in the day of the sound of the seventh angel, whenever he is about to sound a trumpet, also the mystery of God should be finished, as He pronounced glad tidings to the bondslaves of Himself, namely, the prophets.

==========

(From "A Precise Translation" by Fred Wittman, Koine = Pierpont/Robinson Majority Textform, in preparation for publication)
