The Identity Of The 7 Beast-Heads Of Revelation. CONSIDER THIS: There are 4 beasts in Daniel 7. One of them (the leopard/Greece) has 4 heads. We can surmise the other 3 each have 1 head-a total of 7 heads. Revelation 13 shows a composite beast, which includes all 4 of the Daniel 7 beasts.

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).

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.

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...

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...
Rev 17:12-14 – 12 “The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have not yet received a kingdom, but they receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour. 13 “These have one purpose, and they give their power and authority to the beast.
The beast is Daniel 7 and the beast in Revelation 13 refer to the same kingdom, the Roman Empire. With this interpretation set, we can look at Revelation 13:1-10 and notice what is being prophesied about the Roman Empire.
Jun 26, 2018 · So the rise of the ten kings precedes the arrival of the antichrist at the start of Tribulation. However, during the midpoint of Tribulation, the death and resurrection of the antichrist leads to the killing of three of these kings.
Both the dragon (which meant the devil - Revelation 12:3) and the beast (the antichrist - Revelation 13:1) appeared with these 7 heads and 10 horns (bony points on the head). So clearly all these kings are extremely important in their plan to fight against Christ.
