{See thou do it not} (Hora m(885c)). The angel promptly
interposes (legei, dramatic present). See 19:10 for
discussion of this same phrase hora m(885c) when John had once
before started to worship the angel in his excitement. Here we
have added to the words in 19:10 "the prophets ( (936e)
proph(8874)(936e)) and also "them which keep the words of this book"
( (936e) t(8872)ount(936e) tous logous tou bibliou toutou), the last a
repetition from 22:7 . In both places we have "Worship God"
( (9369) the(9369) proskun(8873)on). And not an angel.
