‏ Revelation of John 21:10

He carried me away in the Spirit ( απηνεγκεν με εν πνευματ ). See same language in 17:7 when John received a vision of the Harlot City in a wilderness. Here it is "to a mountain great and high" ( επ ορος μεγα κα υψηλον ). So it was with Ezekiel (Eze 40:2) and so the devil took Jesus (Mt 4:8). It was apparently not Mount Zion (14:1), for the New Jerusalem is seen from this mountain. "The Seer is carried thither 'in spirit' (cf. 1:10; 4:1); the Angel's δευρο is a sursum cor to which his spirit under the influence of the 'Spirit of revelation' (Eph 1:17) at once responds" (Swete).

And he shewed me ( κα εδειξεν μο ). First aorist active indicative of δεικνυμ, just as he had said he would do in verse 9 ( δειξω σο, I will shew thee). Precisely the same words about Jerusalem as in verse 2, save the absence of καινην (New).
