“And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.”
And I will grant my two witnesses power to prophesy for one thousand two hundred sixty days, wearing sackcloth — the two witnesses (duo martyres, two testifiers) are granted power (exousia) to prophesy (propheteuō) for 1,260 days (equivalent to 42 months), clothed in sackcloth (sakkos, mourning garment). Two witnesses fulfill the legal requirement for testimony (Deuteronomy 19:15); their sackcloth indicates they prophesy amid persecution and mourning.
