No, But the greek does mean what I showed. Whether you agree or not does nto matter

Scripture must be taken as a whole. ot picked apart.
Correct.
The samples azamzimtoti supplied, of the noun form of this word (that is also used in Rev1:1, the word under discussion), must each be viewed within their own contexts, considering
the surrounding clues which inform just what the "IN QUICKNESS [NOUN]," or you could say, "WITH SPEED [NOUN]," refers to
in any given passage. The example he gave showed that these were to take place in the immediate time frame then present (based on the surrounding words, not on the actual word itself).
So, in
Rev1:1, we see by the phrase just before it, that the thing that must be "IN QUICKNESS [NOUN]" is the same thing that
4:1 and 1:19c refer to, and that is the "
future" aspects of the Book, "things which must come to pass" [one could say, the things prophesied to come to pass, or things which will
certainly come to pass [because
prophesied to do so!]), as well as the "to SHEW UNTO His servants" phrase, which
"SHEW" word is also found in
4:1... and I believe the v.1 "
to shew unto HIS SERVANTS..." includes the "servants of our God" in Rev7:3 (
the 144,000).
This 1:1/4:1/1:19c/7:3 I believe correlates perfectly with how Matt22:
7 speaks of the 70ad events [Lk21:
23,20] needing to take place before the Matt22:
8's "
THEN SAITH HE to his servants" part can happen [i.e. the
LATER 95ad "Revelation" given to John]. This necessarily must have been "said" AFTER the 70ad events of v.7 (this also agrees with how the Olivet Discourse shows the 70ad events [Lk21:
12-24] must take place "
BEFORE ALL [the beginning of birth pangs (
8-11)]" just as verse 12 says.
Words ending in "LY" (and the word "soon") are ADVERBS, not NOUNS as is the word in Rev1:1.
The surrounding words (when compared with other verses in the general area of the first part of the Book) show us that it's not talking about the "which
ARE [now]" things of the Book, but the things which come
after the "WHICH
ARE" section
(i.e. the "FUTURE" aspects of the Book, which happen to END with His Second Coming
to the earth, Rev19, and which SEALS [Rev5] correlate with "the beginning of birth PANGS [PLURAL]" which Jesus spoke of [Olivet Discourse], and which INITIAL "birth PANG [SINGULAR]"
of THAT, Paul spoke of in 1Th5:
2-3/2Th2:
2-3, and which involves the "presence/
parousia" of the man of sin [his "be revealed" / "
whose coming" aspect at the BEGINNING of the 7 yrs/70th Wk--not its MIDDLE, nor its END, JUST LIKE Dan9:27a (in its THREE parts--BEGINNING, MIDDLE, END of the 7 yrs--both Dan9:27[26] AND 2Th2 cover ALL SEVEN YEARS)])
