A.T. Robertson Commentary
"for her sins have reached even unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities." — Revelation 18:5 (ASV)
Have reached (εκολληθησαν). First aorist passive (deponent) indicative of κολλαω, old verb (from κολλα, gluten, glue), to cleave to, to join one another in a mass "up to heaven" (αχρ του ουρανου). Cf. Jeremiah 51:9; Zechariah 14:5.
Hath remembered (εμνημονευσεν). First aorist (prophetic) active indicative of μνημονευω, here with the accusative (αδικηματα, iniquities) instead of the genitive (Colossians 4:18).
