Dear Edgar:

<< How do you B-Greekers suggest one translates AUTWN in Rev. 6:17? Should it
be "his" or "their"? What should govern one's choice of translation in this
regard?
 
 Thanks,

AUTWN should be translated "their," but some mss. have AUTOU, and that is why
some translations read " his" at this verse. If you have my book, take a look
in Chapter 10, there's a note that gives a brief summary of these variants. I
don't have my book or any text with me right now, so I can't give you any
other specifics.
