Exegesis
The phrase ek tēs doxēs autou {ἐκ τῆς δόξης αὐτοῦ | ek tês dók-sēs au-toû} ‘from his glory’ indicates the source of illumination, highlighting the causal relationship between the angel’s glory and the earth’s newfound light. In translation, the participles are rendered as finite verbs or participial phrases to maintain clarity in English while preserving the temporal and causal nuances of the Greek.
In context — Revelation 18:1
After these things, I saw another angel descending from heaven with great authority , and his glory made the earth shine.
