Omicron Omega Nu?

Jonathan,

    What immediately comes to mind (though I have never seen this particular motif)
is the second part of the three-part name in Revelation 4:8 (which also appears as
the first in a two-part name in Revelation 11:17 & 16:5): hO WN.  Locating it within
the triangle would--it seems to me--be a means of emphasizing the present nature of
the eternal God.

IMHO
Daniel
