Bridgeway Bible Commentary - Revelation 13:1-10

Beast from the sea (13:1-10)Like the dragon of Chapter 12, the beast that arises out of the sea has seven heads and ten horns. If the dragon symbolizes Satan, the opponent of God in the spirit world, the beast out of the sea probably symbolizes the opponent of God in the world of humankind. As God took human form in Jesus Christ, so Satan takes human form in one called the antichrist (GNB: enemy of Christ), or man of lawlessness (GNB: wicked one). He combines cunning, strength, cruelty and... read more

Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.If any man is for captivity, into captivity he goeth ...

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Revelation 13:1-10

The beast out of the sea 13:1-10John stressed three things about this beast: his conspiracy with the dragon (Revelation 13:3-4), his success in deceiving the whole world (Revelation 13:3-4; Revelation 13:8), and his success in temporarily defeating God’s saints (Revelation 13:6-7 a). [Note: Paul S. Minear, I Saw a New Earth: An Introduction to the Visions of the Apocalypse, p. 118.] "The initial description of this creature identifies it as the culminating empire of Daniel’s vision of the end... read more

Expository Notes of Dr. Thomas Constable - Revelation 13:10

God promised the saints that those He has destined for captivity (i.e., Antichrist, his followers, and the saints) will eventually end up as captives (cf. Jeremiah 15:2; Jeremiah 43:11). Those who kill others (the others being believers in Jesus Christ, Revelation 13:7) will die (cf. Matthew 26:52). This assurance that God will execute justice should encourage the saints to persevere steadfastly and to trust God during this period of intense persecution and martyrdom (cf. Revelation 14:12).... read more
