BOOK OF REVELATION
13 It {a two horned office which originally rose up out of the earth} performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven/sky, to earth in the sight of, and presence of mankind. {This fiery event pinpoints/ed an office, not yet an individual.}
14 - And by the signs [sémeion - a sign, miracle, indication, mark, token {of the future?}] this (smaller) beast (two horned) is allowed to work in sight of the {larger, many headed geopolitical} beast {entity/institution that rose from the sea (of humanity).. and like $ity of Babble is on all seven hills/continents}.
And by the sign deceives those who dwell upon earth. Telling them to make an image to the beast that had been wounded by the sword {had expired} and yet {now, after 13:13} lived again.
15 And {in the vision} it was allowed to give breath to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast might speak and cause those who would not worship the image of the beast to be slain. 16 Also it causes all, small and great, rich and poor, both free and slave, to be marked on the right hand or the forehead, 17 so no one may buy or sell unless they have the mark, that is, the name of the beast or the number of its name. {Logically, this is in reverse order. A number required to buy or sell, then escalates to will be slain, Rev.2:10?} 18 This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of man (the word “a” was inserted at translation) and the number is 666. {..? Man is carbon based, and carbon has six protons, six neutrons, and six electrons. Strongly? suggesting apocalypse is done by man. For we have ‘his’ number - an idiom - “I’ve got your number” means understanding someone so well you can predict their actions, or know someone’s true nature and intentions.}
Next - 14:1-7
