I have some thoughts about Time. I am not sure I am right. Commentary,criticism , and reply is welcome.
From a Jewish perspective, Hebrew (the author of <<Revelation>> Apostle John also thought in Hebrew in his mind) can have no Tense. To us John lived in the past, but his words speak to us presently as if he was living now. To us what John "Sees" is probably about Future. But many things in the 2000 years' history from his to ours have happened. What John "Sees" about the future is just happening in his InSight at that time. As a prophet he understands(sees) Light from the future drives out historic darkness and wins. To God all the time(A-Z,from beginning to end) is one word.
From the perspective of fluent Timing, all the Bible has only one word(logos) with two letters (A-Z, את).
א is the first Hebrew letter, ת is the last one. את means a litle like "the"(used before a definite direct object). What I understand is that when the Time Angel obtaines Elohim's attention, he becomes "The" (את) definite direct object. The word "elohim" (Hebrew has no capital form) in Hebrew can mean Angel or Human like Elohim(God). Time Angel is a way(word) of Elohim's expression.
