Exegesis
The aorist active indicatives edóxasen {ἐδόξασεν | edóxasen} ‘she glorified’ and estrēníasen {ἐστρηνίασεν | estrēníasen} ‘she lived in luxury’, both with the reflexive pronoun hautēn {αὑτὴν | hautēn}, describe completed, self-directed actions that set the standard for retribution.
In context — Revelation 18:7
To the extent that she glorified herself and lived in luxury, give her that same measure of torment and mourning, because in her heart she says, “I sit as a queen, and I am not a widow, and I will never see mourning.”
