Exegesis
The genitive participial phrase tou deiknyontos moi tauta {τοῦ δεικνύοντός μοι ταῦτα | toû deik-ný-on-tós moi taû-ta} portrays the angel as actively revealing the vision, which is rendered as “who was showing these things to me” in both reconstructions. This preserves the flow from continuous witnessing to completed hearing and seeing, culminating in John’s act of veneration.
In context — Revelation 22:8
And I, John , am the one who heard and saw these things; and after I heard and saw them, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who was showing these things to me.
