Exegesis
The relative pronoun hou {οὗ | hoû} introduces a restrictive genitive relative clause, “of whom the name of him has not been written,” clarifying that not every earth-dweller is meant, but specifically those whose onoma {ὄνομα | ó-no-ma} “name” is absent from the heavenly record.
Root and etymology
proskyneōpi–rho–omicron–sigma–kappa–upsilon–nu–epsilon–omega
“to bow down, prostrate oneself, worship”
In context — Revelation 13:8
And all who dwell on the earth will worship him, everyone whose name has not been written in the book of life of the Lamb who has been slain from the foundation of the world .
