Exegesis
The narrative opens with the connective kai {καὶ | kaí} linking this verse to the preceding sequence of bowl judgments, followed by the aorist verb ekousa {ἤκουσα | ḗ-kou-sa} 'I heard', which introduces a new auditory element in the vision.
In context — Revelation 16:7
And I heard the altar saying, “Yes, Lord God the Almighty , true and just are Your judgments .”
