The witness reads δεικνύοντός in Revelation 22:8, within the phrase τοῦ ἀγγέλου τοῦ δεικνύοντός μοι ταῦτα.

The lemma is δείκνυμι, a verb meaning to show, point out, or make known.

The participle describes a continuing or characteristic action in relation to the angel, while the article ties it closely to the noun it modifies.

Do not derive a claim that the participle alone settles the angel's identity, rank, or full role beyond what the context states.
