REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Twenty Four The Finish of the Sacred Secret - Continue

 The Greek word here translated "delay" is khro'nos, which literally means "time." Some have thus felt that his declaration of teh angels should be translated: "There will be no more time," as though time as we know it will end. But the word khro'nos here is used with a definite article. So it does not mean time in general but rather, " a time" or "a period of time." In other words, there will be no further period of time (or, delay) by Jehovah. A Greek verb derived from khro'nos is used also at Hebrews 10:37, where Paul, quoting from Habakkuk 2:3,4,  writes that "he whom is coming . . . will not delay."
