Exegesis
The prepositional phrase epi ton potamon ton megan ton Euphraten {ἐπὶ τὸν ποταμὸν τὸν μέγαν τὸν Εὐφράτην | e-pí tón po-ta-món tón mé-gan tón eu-phrát-ēn} uses epi with the accusative to indicate motion “upon,” and the successive articles with megan and the proper name build emphasis: “the river, the great, the Euphrates.”
In context — Revelation 16:12
And the sixth angel poured out his bowl upon the great river, the Euphrates, and its water was dried up, so that the way for the kings from the rising of the sun might be prepared.
