ASVnCOMMENTS: The word for “seven” is enclosed in brackets in the UBS text. Although it is possible that it may have been borrowed by copyists from such passages as Revelation 1:4; Revelation 3:1; Revelation 4:5, it is also possible that it was accidently omitted when copyists read TAEPTA as TA.

KJV

Since in Revelation 20:6 manuscript A changes “they shall reign” to “they reign,” a majority of the UBS Textual Committee felt that the same thing had happened here.
