Exegesis
A coordinated clause with kai exelthen {καὶ ἐξῆλθεν | kaí ex-ēl-then} introduces the subject phone megale {φωνὴ μεγάλη | phōnḕ megálē}, anarthrous to emphasize the magnitude of the voice.
In context — Revelation 16:17
And the seventh angel poured out his bowl upon the air, and a great voice came out of the temple from the throne, saying, “It is done.”
