2:9
I know [thy works] and tribulation and the poverty, but rich thou are being.
And the blasphemy of those claiming themselves to be Jews and are not, but are being a synagogue of the Satan.

"works" is missing out of the Alex and B-M texts, which a few of the Bible versions also omit.

New American Standard Bible
'I know your tribulation and your poverty (but you are rich), and the blasphemy by those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.

King James Bible
I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.

Rich and poor are mentioned numerous times in the Bible, [especially in Proverbs of the OT].
Here are a few verses:


Proverbs 13:7
There is one who makes himself rich, yet has nothing;
And one who makes himself poor, yet has great riches.

2 Corinthians 8:9

For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though He was rich,
yet for your sakes He became poor,

that ye, through His poverty, might be rich.

Luke 16:

19 'And -- a certain man was rich, and was clothed in purple and fine linen, making merry sumptuously every day,
20 But at his gate lay a poor-man/beggar named Lazarus, whose body was covered with sores

Revelation 2:10
Nothing no thou be fearing! which-things thou are being about to be suffering
Behold! *The devil is being about to be casting out ye* into a prison that ye may be being tried and ye shall be having tribulation ten days.
Be thou becoming faithful! until death, and I shall be giving to thee the crown of the life.


There is a variation between the T-R and the other 3 Greek texts concerning the placement of "o diaboloV".
The B-M adds "dh"

2:10
Nothing no thou be fearing/frightened/terrified!/fobou<5399 ..........

5399. phobeo fob-eh'-o from 5401; to frighten, i.e. (passively) to be alarmed; by analogy, to be in awe of, i.e. revere:--be (+ sore) afraid, fear (exceedingly), reverence.

Out of the 110 times #5399 is used, the exact form of the Greek word is used 22 times, including 2 times in Revelation here and:
Revelation 1:17
And when I saw him, I did fall at His feet as dead, and He placed His right hand upon me, saying to me, "No thou be fearing/!fobou<5399>. I AM the First and the Last."

2:10
..............which-things thou are being about to be suffering/pascein<3958>..................

3958 pásxō (a primitive verb) – properly, to feel heavy emotion, especially suffering; affected, experiencing feeling (literally "sensible" = "sensed-experience"); "the feeling of the mind, emotion, passion"...........
Strong's Number G3958 matches the Greek πάσχω (paschō), which occurs 46 times in 41 verses.

Of the 41 verses #3958 is used, the exact word form of it that is used in Reve 2:10 is used in 4 verses.

Matthew 17:12
“But I say to you that Elijah has come already, and they did not know him but did to him whatever they wished.
Likewise the Son of Man is also about to suffer at their hands.
Philippians 1:29
For to you it has been granted on behalf of Christ, not only to believe in Him, but also to suffer for His sake,
1 Peter 3:17
For it is better, if it is the will of God, to suffer for doing good than for doing evil.

Reve 2:10
........Behold! *The devil/diaboloV<1228> is being about to........

Here we are first introduced to the "Devil" in Revelation.
It is formed with the preposition prefix #1223 and verb suffix 906, literally "one who cast/throws".
I won't delve into this word on this thread as I am sure everyone if familiar with the pesky character.

1228 diábolos (from 1225 /diabállō, "to slander, accuse, defame") – properly, a slanderer; a false accuser; unjustly criticizing to hurt (malign) and condemn to sever a relationship.
1223. dia dee-ah' a primary preposition denoting the channel of an act;
906. ballo bal'-lo a primary verb; to throw (in various applications, more or less violent or intense):--arise, cast (out)

1st time used in NT:
Matt 4:1
Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tried/tempted of the devil/diabolou<1228>.


Last time used:
Revevelation 20:10
And the devil/diaboloV<1228> that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are,
and shall be tormented day and night into the ages of the ages.

Reve 2:10
........casting out ye* into a prison/5438 that ye may be being tried and ye shall be having tribulation ten days................

Paul mentions imprisoning many Saints on orders of the corrupt Jewish rulers:

Acts 26:10
which also I did in Jerusalem, and many of the saints I in prison did shut up, from the chief priests having received the authority;
they also being put to death, I gave my vote against them


Reve 18:2
He shouted with a mighty voice, saying, "Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great,
and she has become a habitation of demons, dwelling place of every unclean spirit,
and a prison/cage of every unclean bird, and a prison/cage of every unclean and detestable beast.

Reve 20:7
And after the thousand years, the Satan will be released from his prison

Rev 2:10
Be thou becoming faithful! until death, and I shall be giving to thee the crown /stefanon<4735> of the life.

#4735 is mentioned in Matt, Mark and John at the trial of Jesus when He was crowned.

"crown of the life" is mentioned 1 other time:
James 1:2
Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown/stefanon<4735> of the life
which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
Paul mentions being given the crown of the righteousness:
2 Timothy 4:8
henceforth there is laid up for me the crown/stefanoV<4735> of the righteousness that the Lord -- the Righteous Judge -- shall give to me in that day, and not only to me, but also to all those loving his manifestation.


Revelation 14:14
And I saw, and behold! a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sitting like to a son of man,
having upon his head a golden crown/stefanon<4735>, and in his hand a sharp sickle

Reve 2:11
"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.
Whoever overcomes will not be hurt by the second death.'"


Only 4 verses use the phrase "second death", all in Revelation.
Revelation 2:11
Happy and holy is he who is having part in the first rising again; over these the second death hath not authority, but they shall be priests of God and of the Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.
Revelation 20:14
and the death and the hades were cast to the lake of the fire -- this is the second death;
Revelation 21:8
and to fearful, and unsteadfast, and abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the liars, their part is in the lake that is burning with fire and brimstone, which is the second death

................................Pergamum [verses 12-17] [posts # 31 - 39]

Revelation 2:
12 To the Messenger of the Assembly in Pergamum write!
These are the words of the One who has the sharp, double-edged sword.
13 I know where you live, where the throne of Satan is.
Yet you have held on to My name and have not denied your faith in Me, even in the day My faithful witness Antipas was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
14 But I have a few things against you, because some of you hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to place a stumbling block before the Israelites so they would eat food sacrificed to idols and commit sexual immorality. 15 In the same way, some of you also hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. 16 Therefore repent! Otherwise I will come to you shortly and wage war against them with the sword of My mouth.

17 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who is victorious, I will give the hidden manna. I will also give him a white stone inscribed with a new name, known only to the one who receives it

Reve 2:12
To the Messenger of the Assembly in Pergamum write!
Now this is the One saying One-having the sword, the two-edged/distomon<1366>, the sharp/keen


All the Greek texts agree

Stephens 1550
/Scrivener 1894 Textus Receptus

kai tw aggelw thV en pergamw ekklhsiaV grayon
tade legei o ecwn thn romfaian thn distomon thn oxeian


#1366 is a combination of the prefix word #1364 and root word #4750.
It is used 3 times in the NT

1366. distomos dis'-tom-os from 1364 and 4750; double-edged:--with two edges, two-edged.
1364. dis dece adverb from 1417; twice:--again, twice
4750. stoma stom'-a probably strengthened from a presumed derivative of the base of 5114; the mouth (edge, face, mouth).

Revelation 1:16
In His right hand He held seven stars, from His mouth/stomatoV<4750> came a sharp two-edged/distomon<1366> sword..

Luke 21:24
And they shall fall by the edge/stomatoV<4750> of the sword,..................

Hebrews 4:12
For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged/distomon<1366> sword,.....

Hebrews 11:34
quenched the violence of fire, escaped the edge/stomatoV<4750> of the sword, out of weakness were made strong, became valiant in battle, turned to flight the armies of the aliens

Reve 2:12
To the Messenger of the Assembly in Pergamum write!
Now this is the One saying One-having the sword/romfaian<4501> the two-edged/distomon<1366>, the sharp/keen


Next I would like to look at the Greek word #4501 for sword [as there appears to be 2 different greek words for sword].
It is used only 7 times in the NT, all but 1 of those being in Revelation [Luke 2:35].

Genesis 1:1 (KJV)
4501. rhomphaia hrom-fah'-yah probably of foreign origin; a sabre, i.e. a long and broad cutlass (any weapon of the kind, literally or figuratively):--sword.
Strong's Number G4501 matches the Greek ῥομφαία (rhomphaia), which occurs 7 times in 7 verses

Luke 2:35
(and also thine own soul shall a sword/romfaia<4501> pass through) -- that the reasonings of many hearts may be revealed.'


One reason I wanted to look at this more closely is, that there is another word that is translated as "sword" which appears to be a large knife or a shorter sword, [perhaps like a sacrificial knife: Genesis 22:10]

3162. machaira makh'-ahee-rah probably feminine of a presumed derivative of 3163; a knife, i.e. dirk; figuratively, war, judicial punishment:--sword.
1. a large knife, used for killing animals and cutting up flesh: Homer, Pindar, Herodotus, at.; hence, Genesis 22:6, 10; Judges 19:29 Alex., for מַאֲכֶלֶת.
2. a small sword, distinguished from the large sword.

It is used 3 times in Revelation
I will post Reve 13:10 as it harmonizes with Luke 21:24 of the Olivet Discourse:

Matthew 10:34 [Revelation 6:4]
Think not that I am come to send peace on the land:
I came not to send peace, but a sword/(machaira)<3162>


Luke 21:24 [Revelation 13:10]
And they shall fall by the edge of the sword/(machaira)<3162>, and shall be led away captive into all nations:
and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.


Revelation 13:10 [Luke 21:24]
He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity:
he that killeth with the sword/(machaira)<3162> must be killed with the sword/(machaira)<3162>.
Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.


Revelation 6:4 [Ezekiel 38:21]
And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the land,
and that they should kill one another:
And there was given unto him a great sword/(machaira)<3162>.

Reve 2:13
I know [thy works]where you live, where the throne of the Satan is.
And thou are holding-fast to My name and have not denied/disowned thy faith in Me,
even in the day My faithful witness Antipas was killed among you, where the Satan dwells.


The throne of Satan and where He dwells mentioned.

Some bible versions omit "thy works", tho it is in 3 of the main Mss.
Also, a few other variances.

New American Standard Bible
'I know where you dwell, where Satan's throne is; and you hold fast My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days of Antipas, My witness, My faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
King James Bible
I know [thy works], and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.

Thus thou are having, even thou, those holding of the teaching of the Nicolaitans likewise [which thing I hate]

New American Standard Bible
'So you also have some who in the same way hold the teaching of the Nicolaitans.
King James Bible
So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.

The T-R uses the Greek word for #G3404 for "hate"
3404. miseo mis-eh'-o from a primary misos (hatred); to detest (especially to persecute); by extension, to love less:--hate(-ful).

While the other texts have #G3668 for "likewise"
3668. homoios hom-oy'-oce adverb from 3664; similarly:--likewise, so.

Revelaton 2:16
Therefore repent!
Otherwise I am coming to thee swiftly and I shall be battling with them in the sword of the mouth mouth of me.


New American Standard Bible
'Therefore repent; or else I am coming to you quickly, and I will make war against them with the sword of My mouth.
King James Bible
Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.

Just a minor variance with #G3767. Doesn't affect the verse any.

4170. polemeo pol-em-eh'-o from 4171; to be (engaged) in warfare, i.e. to battle (literally or figuratively): -fight, (make) war.
Strong's Number G4170 matches the Greek πολεμέω (polemeō),which occurs 7 times in 6 verses

Used only 1 time outside of Revelation:
James 4:2
Ye lust, and have not: ye kill, and desire to have, and cannot obtain,
ye fight and war, G4170 yet ye have not, because ye ask not.

Reve 2:17
The one having an ear, let him hear! what the Spirit is saying to the Assemblies.
To the one conquering I shall be giving to him [to eat] from out of the manna, of the one having been hidden
And I shall be giving to him a white pebble/counter and on the pebble/counter a new name having been written no one has known except the one obtaining it.

The word "to eat" is left out/added in the texts. So I would put "to eat" in brackets.

2 popular Bible versions which use different Greek texts:
New American Standard Bible
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, to him I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and a new name written on the stone which no one knows but he who receives it.'
King James Bible
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.

"manna" occurs 18 times in 16 verses in the YLT.
Strong's Number H4478 matches the Hebrew מָן (man), which occurs 14 times in 12 verses
Exodus 16:4
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “Behold, I will rain bread from heaven for you. And the people shall go out and gather a certain quota every day,
that I may test them, whether they will walk in My law or not.
Then Yahweh said to Moses, “I will rain down bread from heaven for you.
The people are to go out each day and gather enough for that day.
In this way I will test them and see whether they will follow my instructions.
5
“And it shall be on the sixth day that they shall prepare what they bring in,
and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.”
31
and the house of Israel call its name Manna, and it is as coriander seed, white;
and its taste is as a cake with honey.

Psalm 78:24
And He raineth on them manna to eat,
Yea, corn of heaven He hath given to them
25

Man ate the bread of angels;
He sent them food in abundance.
Psalm 105:40
They asked for meat, and He sent them quail;
He satisfied their hunger with manna—bread from heaven


Strong's Number G3131 matches the Greek μάννα (manna),which occurs 5 times in 5 verses
#3131 is used only in 5 verses of the NT
3 times in John 6, 1 time each in Hebrews and Revelation.


John 6: [Exodus 16]
31
our fathers the manna did eat in the wilderness,
according as it is having been written, 'Bread out of the heaven He gave them to eat.'
49
your fathers did eat the manna in the wilderness, and they died;
58
this is the bread that came down out of the heaven;
not as your fathers did eat the manna, and died; he who is eating this bread shall live -- to the age.

Hebrews 9:4 [Exodus 16: 33, 34/Relation 11:19]
having a golden censer, and the ark of the covenant overlaid all round about with gold, in which is the golden pot having the manna, and the rod of Aaron that budded, and the tables of the covenant,

5586. psephos psay'-fos from the same as 5584; a pebble (as worn smooth by handling), i.e. (by implication, of use as a counter or ballot) a verdict (of acquittal) or ticket (of admission); a vote:--stone, voice.

The only other verse that used #G5586 is Acts 26:10, where Saul/Paul casts his voice/vote against the Saints
Act 26:10 [Revelation 2:17]
which also I did in Jerusalem, and many of the Saints I in prison did shut up, from the chief priests having received the authority;
they also being put to death, I gave my vote/yhfon<5586> against them

5584. pselaphao psay-laf-ah'-o from the base of 5567 (compare 5586); to manipulate, i.e. verify by contact; figuratively, to search for:--feel after, handle, touch.
5585. psephizo psay-fid'-zo from 5586; to use pebbles in enumeration, i.e. (generally) to compute:--count.

There are 2 other verses that use another form of that word:
Luke 14:28 [Revelation 13:18]
For which of you, intending to build a tower, sitteth not down first, and counteth/ψηφίζω (psēphizō)<5585> the cost, whether he have sufficient to finish it?

Revelation 13:18 [Luke 14:28]
Here is the wisdom! He who is having the understanding, let him count/ψηφίζω (psēphizō)<5585> the number of the beast,
for the number of a man it is, and its number is six hundred and sixty six.

......................................Thyatira [Reve 18-29]

Next up we have the Assembly in Thyatira:
Mentioned in Acts 16:11-15


(YLT)
Revelation 2:
18‘ And to the messenger of the assembly in Thyatira write:
These things saith the Son of God, who is having his eyes as a flame of fire, and his feet like to fine brass;
19 I have known thy works, and love, and ministration, and faith, and thy endurance,
and thy works — and the last [are] more than the first.
20 ‘But I have against thee a few things: That thou dost suffer the woman Jezebel, who is calling herself a prophetess,
to teach, and to lead astray, my servants to commit whoredom, and idol-sacrifices to eat;
21 and I did give to her a time that she might reform from her whoredom, and she did not reform;
22 lo, I will cast her into a couch, and those committing adultery with her into great tribulation — if they may not repent of their works,
23 and her children I will kill in death, and know shall all the assemblies that I am he who is searching reins and hearts;
and I will give to you — to each — according to your works.
24 ‘And to you I say, and to the rest who are in Thyatira, as many as have not this teaching, and who did not know the depths of the Adversary, as they say;
I will not put upon you other burden;
25 but that which ye have — hold ye, till I may come;
26 and he who is overcoming, and who is keeping unto the end my works, I will give to him authority over the nations,
27 and he shall rule them with a rod of iron — as the vessels of the potter they shall be broken — as I also have received from my Father;
28 and I will give to him the morning star.
29 He who is having an ear — let him hear what the Spirit saith to the assemblies.
