(Prophecy repeats, from a ‘smaller’ fulfillment to full scale fulfillment.)

14 This second beast fooled people on earth by working (modern? like ai? and so much more) miracles for the first beast (the huge many headed geopolitical entity, who’s in partnership with $ity babble, an oligarchy, sitting on seven hills/continents). Then the second, smaller beast talked them into making an idol in the form of the beast that did not die after being wounded by a sword. (Was reborn after expiring when its head/originator did not sign on after all?) 15 He was then permitted to give life to this statue. So that it could speak. And then the statue of the beast commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die. [Another version - And it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might even speak and might cause those who would not worship [proskynรฉล - to do reverence to, the basic meaning in the opinion of most scholars, is to kiss, from prรณs -towards, and kyneo - to kiss, properly, to kiss the ground when prostrating before a superior] the image of the beast, to be slain. Or - The second beast was permitted to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refuse to worship it to be killed. (This is an escalation from “cannot buy or sell without”. Reversing order is sometimes used to help veil?) 16 And it makes everyone small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to be given a mark on [epi - on, upon] their right hand or on their forehead. 17 And no one could buy or sell without that mark, which was either the name of the beast or the number representing his name. [Or - so that no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name.] 18 Here is a call for wisdom: Let the one who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and that number is 666. (“A” man is not necessarily originally in the verse. Triple 6 as the number of man? It’s all man’s doing? All this chaos and its effects portrayed in bible prophecy, that is. Prophecy like salvation repeats like widening ripples of a pond. From micro (Israel) to macro (world, and full pond ripple). Cross reference to the triple 6? Daniel 12:11-12 with Mt.24:1-2, Mk.13:1-2.

      Mt.24:1-2 - “As Jesus was leaving the Temple ground, his disciples pointed out to him the various Temple buildings. But he answered them, “Do you see all this? Truly, I tell you, there will not be one stone upon another, that will not be thrown down.” And Dn.12:11-12 - “From the time the perpetual sacrifice is taken away” (abolished, no more stone atop another at the Western Wall? Current holy place to Israel) and the abomination that desolates is set up, there will be 1,290 days.” (This time upon the human temple meant for God’s Spirit/Presence?)

9 Anyone with ears to hear should listen and understand. 10 If anyone is taken prisoner, he must go to prison. If anyone is killed with a sword, with a sword he must be killed. In all this God's holy people need endurance and confidence.

     11 Then I saw another beast come up out of the earth. [Not like the huge many headed beast that came up out of the sea.] This one had two horns like those of a lamb. But he spoke with the voice of a dragon. 12 And this beast exercised all the authority of the first (many headed geopolitical?) beast and he caused the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the (huge) first beast, whose mortal wound had been healed, 13 and did great signs, so that he even made fire to come down from the heavens upon the earth in the sight of men. (Hello?) (This event, the first seal six occurrence, pinpoints an office, not [yet] an individual.)

The revelation vision is told three times, all meeting and concluding at the seventh trumpet. (1)6:1-2 to 11:19 (2)chapter 12, vs 17 with mt.23:39, and (3)13:1 to 19:11.

1 - The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast rising out of the sea (of humanity, an institution). It had ten horns (divisions? toes of Nebuchadnezzar’s dream statue of Daniel, chapter 2) and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head, a name that insults God. [“Ten horns” ->Daniel 7:7,19 and 2:32,33!] 2 This beast looked like a leopard, but it had the feet of a bear and the mouth of a lion. And the dragon gave the beast his own power and throne and great authority. 3 One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound. (The finaL form of satanic empire? It was, then wasn’t, when its ‘head’/originator didn’t sign on after all?) But the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world marveled after (admired?) and followed the beast. 4 They worshiped the dragon for giving the beast such power. And they worshiped the beast. “Who is as great as the beast?” they said. “Who is able to make war with him?” 5 And a mouth was given to it. And it spoke great things and blasphemy, and was given authority to act forty and two months (3.5 hebrew years, 1,260 days). 6 And he spoke terrible words against God, slandering his name and his dwelling, and those who dwell in heaven. 7 And the beast was allowed to wage war against God’s people and to conquer (oppress) them. And he was (will be - after Rev.7:1,3 is interrupted? the winds that are held back (7:1,3) are veiled by the seals of chapter 6 being described as their fuLL effects and not just first or opening/beginning effects) [he is] given authority to rule over every tribe and people and language and nation. 8 The inhabitants of earth will worship [proskynรฉล - from prรณs - towards, and kyneo - to kiss – properly, to kiss the ground when prostrating before a superior, harnessed “god of forces”] the beast, all whose names have not (yet) been written in the Lamb’s book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation (blueprint) of the world.

{Notes & Review: This chapter is a stand alone insert. Believers are the bride of the manchild/Son of man. Non Hebrew people once they are united to Jesus become a part of Israel, they are “grafted into the commonwealth” - Review: a great sign - a virgin conceived. The dragon, via Herod the Great, tried to destroy the manchild, but instead He is at the right hand of God. The adversary was angered->70 CE, a first migration (in the age of our Lord, A.D.) of the faith->white horse gone/going forth. Then there’s a battle in heaven and the dragon is cast out, and no longer allowed access to heaven.}

     13 When the dragon saw that he was cast to earth, he persecuted (inquisitioned) the woman (the faith) which had brought forth the man child. 14 And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly (sail via the wind) into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time (a 3.5 measure of time, 1620+350?) AWAY from the face (cruel inquisitions) of the serpent. (Eagle wings - a good beginning - not perfect - but like most things goes into decline and decomposing/corruption. Most often getting hijacked and infiltrated. I know I repeat myself over and over. But how can I not mention the ever popular, world’s “false prophet” [“the field is the world”] who’s “strong delusion” of “seating man/anthropos as in the temple as God”/highest power, caused a great “falling away”.)

     15 And the serpent (guise of the dragon) poured water like a river out of his mouth after the woman, so that he might cause her to be swept away with the flood (washed off of the earth). 16 But the earth helped her and swallowed the flood that had come from the dragon's mouth. (Widespread drought coming? $ity Babble on 7hills/continents, falls/crashes?) [From the dragon’s mouth - Rev.16:13? The flood becomes part of the gathering to Armageddon battle?-Mt.13:30. Unholy ‘trinity’ (rev.16:13) - the dragon, the beast (many headed geopolitical) and the false prophet who will greatly expound on what came out of the mouth of the dragon? Note: The false prophet enabled Rev.13:13, but is not the “little horn”/beast. The 13:13 event pinpointed an OFFICE, not (yet) an individual.]

     [Cross Reference: Mt.23:39 - “I tell you [Jerusalem] you will not see me (Jesus) again UNTIL you say, ‘Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD!”] 17 And the dragon was angry against the woman, and went to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God, and (by now) have the testimony of Jesus Christ. (Rev.7:4, which in most part follows vs.9.) And the dragon stood on the shore of the sea..

1 Live under the protection of God Most High and stay in the shadow of God all powerful. 2 Then you will say to the LORD, "You are my fortress, my place of safety. You are my God, and I trust you." 3 The Lord will keep you safe from secret traps and deadly diseases. 4 He will spread his wings over you and keep you secure. His faithfulness is like a shield or a strong wall. [Stay in the shadow of God all powerful.] 5 You won't need to worry about dangers at night or arrows during the day. 6 Do not fear the disease that stalks in darkness, nor the disaster that strikes at midday! 7 Though a thousand fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, no harm will come near you. 8 You will only see with your eyes the recompense (wage) of the wicked. 9 The LORD Most High is your fortress. Run to him for safety. 10 No evil will happen to you, nor will any plague come near your tent. 11 God will command his angels to protect you wherever you go. 12 They will carry you in their arms, you will not strike your foot against a stone. 13 You will trample upon lions and cobras, you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet! 14 The LORD says, "If you love me and truly know who I am, I will rescue you and keep you safe. 15 When you are in trouble, call out to me. I will answer and be there to protect and honor you. 16 You will live a long life and see my saving power” (at work).

      Chapter 12, a Stand Alone Insert

(After the 70 CE, first migration of the faith) - 7 Then there was war in heaven, Michael and his angels warred against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels warred back. 8  But the dragon was defeated, and he and his angels were not allowed in heaven any longer. 9 The great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil, or Satan, who leads the whole world astray. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him. 10 Then I heard a loud voice shouting across the heavens (the throwing out of the old ‘gods’ and their systems) “Our God has shown his saving power, and his kingdom has come! God's own chosen one [the Son] has shown his authority. Satan accused our people in the presence of God day and night. Now he has been thrown out! 11 They won the victory over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the truth which they proclaimed, for they did not cling to their lives even in the face of death. 12 Therefore rejoice, you heavens and you who dwell in them! But woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has gone down to you! He is filled with fury, knowing that he has little time.”
