Robertson's Word Pictures (NT)
I beheld Satan fallen (eqewroun ton Satanan pesonta). Imperfect active (I was beholding) and second aorist (constative) active participle of piptw (not
fallen, peptwkota, perfect active participle, nor
falling, piptonta, present active participle, but
fall, pesonta). As a flash of lightning out of heaven, quick and startling, so the victory of the Seventy over the demons, the agents of Satan, forecast his downfall and Jesus in vision pictured it as a flash of lightning.
