Or is coming

Amplified 2015 Translator's Notes:
Literal renderings, alternate translations or explanations.

John and his brother James were among the first apostles chosen by Jesus, and were the sons of Zebedee and Salome. In addition to the Revelation, John wrote the Gospel and the three letters that bear his name.

The Roman province of Asia (now western Turkey) was formed in 129 B.C.

Like Paul, the apostle John takes the standard Jewish greeting of "Peace [Heb shalom] to you" and modifies it by adding grace, without which no one could obtain peace with God.

A literal translation, perhaps referring to the perfect fullness of the ministry of the Holy Spirit.
