In verse 9, everyone who has ears is invited to hear. This instruction reminds us of an expression often used by the Lord Jesus Christ (Matthew 11:15, Mark 4:23, Luke 8:8). The expression means that everyone is invited to pay attention to the message and to obey. Now then, what is the message? "If anyone is to be taken captive, to captivity he goes...

Interpretation of The Beast from The Sea
Keeping in mind that Daniel’s fourth kingdom is Rome, the sea from which John's beast arises is probably the Mediterranean Sea, to which Rome and Israel had access. In Revelation 17:5, we are told that the sea represents nations, and the sea also plays an important role in Revelation 18:17. It is also likely that the Mediterranean is the Great Sea of which Daniel 7:2 speaks. Moreover, it is likely that the beast from the sea in Revelation is Daniels’ little horn. Daniel’s fourth beast had 10...
Inerpretation of The Beast from The Earth
In Revelation 12, the woman was protected from the dragon by the earth. In Revelation 13, the second beast rises from the earth, the region to which the woman fled for protection in Revelation 12.

Revelation makes reference to the seven churches in Roman Asia (Turkey), to the Euphrates River (which runs from Turkey through Syria and Iraq), to Jerusalem (Israel), and even to B...

An indication that the beast is a human since the man was created on the sixth day of creation (Genesis 1:27-31) 4. A way to identify the beast’s name by using gematria (when the name of the beast is written in Gre...

In 13:5-6 we see the beast as a person opening his mouth in blasphemy against God. In 13:14 an image is to be made of the beast and in 13:18 his number is the number of man. Finally, the beast’s final doom is to go to destruction, literally “and into destruction he goes” (cf. 17:8, 11, 19-20 with 2 Thess. 2:3).
The ten horns you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but who for one hour will receive authority as kings along with the beast.
