Exegesis
This is further qualified by two parallel prepositional phrases, ek tēs doxēs tou theou {ἐκ τῆς δόξης τοῦ θεοῦ | ek tēs dóxēs tou theoû} and ek tēs dynameōs autou {ἐκ τῆς δυνάμεως αὐτοῦ | ek tēs dunámeōs autoû}, indicating that the smoke proceeds “from the glory of God” and “from His power,” so that divine manifestation and divine might are the explicit source and cause of the filling.
In context — Revelation 15:8
And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His power, and no one was able to enter the temple until the seven plagues of the seven angels were completed .
