[ The following table and chart was taken from charts (15x22 inches) that I
created in 1970-71. I pasted clipped verses from the Bible
into columns so as to better
understand the scriptures pertaining to the Beast of Revelation.]
Seven Headed and Ten
Horned Beast
Four Great Beasts |
| DBY Daniel 2:31 Thou, O king, sawest, and behold, a great
image. This image was mighty and its brightness excellent; it stood before thee,
and its appearance was terrible. 32 This image's head was of fine gold,
its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass, 33
its legs of iron, its feet part of iron and part of clay.
|
DBY Revelation 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea;
and I saw a beast rising out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads,
and upon its horns ten diadems, and upon its heads names of blasphemy.
[Notice this system has ten crowns or diadems on its heads; one for each
nation.] |
DBY Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like to
a leopardess, and its feet as of a bear, and its mouth
as a lion's mouth; and the dragon gave to it his power, and his throne,
and great authority; |
DBY Daniel 7:1 In the first year of Belshazzar king of
Babylon, Daniel saw a dream and visions of his head upon his bed: then he wrote the dream;
he told the sum of the matters. 2 Daniel spoke and said, I saw in my vision by night, and
behold, the four winds of the heavens broke forth upon the great sea. 3 And four
great beasts came up from the sea, different one from another. |
DBY Daniel 7:17 These great beasts, which are
four, are four kings, {that} shall arise out of the earth.
|
|
First Kingdom; First Head
Babylonian Empire |
| DBY Daniel 2:32 This image's head was of fine gold,
its breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass, DBY Daniel 2:37
Thou, O king [Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, v.1], art a king of kings, unto
whom the God of the heavens hath given the kingdom, the power, and the strength, and the
glory;
|
DBY Daniel 7:4 The first was like a lion,
and had eagle's wings: I beheld till its wings were plucked; and it was
lifted up from the earth, and made to stand upon two feet as a man, and a man's heart was
given to it. [see Dan 4:33] |
DBY Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like to a
leopardess, and its feet as of a bear, and its mouth as a lion's mouth; |
DBY Daniel 4:33 The same hour was the word fulfilled upon Nebuchadnezzar;
and he was driven from men, and ate grass as oxen; and his body was bathed with the dew of
heaven, till his hair grew like eagles' {feathers}, and his nails like
birds' {claws}. 34 And at the end of the days I Nebuchadnezzar lifted up mine eyes unto
the heavens, and mine understanding returned unto me, and I blessed the Most High, and I
praised and honoured him that liveth for olam, whose dominion is an olam dominion,
and his kingdom is from generation to generation. |
|
|
Second Kingdom; Second
Head
Medo- Persia Empire |
| DBY Daniel 2:32 This image's head was of fine gold, its
breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass,
DBY Daniel 2:39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee
[silver]; then another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
|
DBY Daniel 8:3 And I lifted up mine eyes and saw, and
behold, there stood before the river a ram which had two horns [for Media
& Persia, Dan. 8:20]; and the two horns were high; and one was higher than the other,
and the higher came up last.
DBY Daniel 8:20 The ram that thou sawest having the two horns: they are the kings of Media
and Persia. |
DBY Daniel 7:5 And behold, another beast, a second,
like unto a bear, and it raised up itself on one side; and {it had} three
ribs in its mouth between its teeth; and they said thus unto it: Arise, devour much flesh. |
DBY Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like to
a leopardess, and its feet as of a bear, and its mouth as a lion's mouth; |
|
|
Third Kingdom with Four
heads (3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th)
Grecian Kingdom |
| DBY Daniel 2:32 This image's head was of fine gold, its
breast and its arms of silver, its belly and its thighs of brass,
DBY Daniel 2:39 And after thee shall arise another kingdom inferior to thee; then
another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth.
|
DBY Daniel 8:5 And as I was considering, behold, a he-goat
came from the west over the face of the whole earth, and touched not the ground: and the
goat had a notable horn between his eyes
DBY Daniel 8:8 And the he-goat became exceeding great; but when he was become strong,
the great horn was broken; and in its stead came up four notable ones
toward the four winds of the heavens.
|
DBY Daniel 8:21 And the rough goat is the king of Greece;
and the great horn that was between his eyes is the first king.
DBY Daniel 8:22 Now that being broken, whereas four stood up in its stead, four
kingdoms shall stand up out of the nation, but not with his power.
|
DBY Revelation 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like to
a leopardess, and its feet as of a bear, and its mouth as a lion's mouth; |
DBY Daniel 7:6 After this I saw, and behold, another, like
a leopard, and it had four wings of a bird upon its back; and the beast
had four heads; and dominion was given to it.
|
|
| Fourth Kingdom with Ten
Kingdoms |
| DBY Daniel 2:33 its legs of iron, its feet
[w/ ten toes] part of iron and part of clay.
DBY Daniel 2:40 And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron:
forasmuch as iron breaketh in pieces and subdueth everything, and as iron
that breaketh all these, so shall it break in pieces and bruise.
DBY Daniel 2:41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and toes,
|
DBY Daniel 8:9 And out of (the) one of them came forth a little
horn, which became exceeding great, |
DBY Revelation 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea;
and I saw a beast rising out of the sea, having ten horns and seven heads,
and upon its horns ten [had] diadems,
[Notice this system has ten crowns or diadems on its heads;
one for each nation.] |
DBY Daniel 7:7 After this I saw in the night visions, and
behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and terrible, and exceeding strong; and
it had great iron teeth: it devoured and broke in pieces, and stamped the rest
with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it;
|
DBY Daniel 7:20 and concerning the ten horns
that were in its head,
|
DBY Daniel 7:23 He said thus: The fourth beast shall be a fourth
kingdom upon the earth, which shall be different from all the kingdoms,
|
Ten Nations to Seven
Nations
[at the 1260th Day] |
| DBY Daniel 2:41 And whereas thou sawest the feet and
toes, part of potter's clay, and part of iron,
the kingdom shall be divided; ... the kingdom shall be partly
strong and partly fragile [broken].
|
DBY Daniel 8:9 And out of (the) one of them came forth a little horn,
which became exceeding great, toward the south, and toward the east, and toward the
beauty {of the earth}. 10 And it became great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast
down {some} of the host and of the stars to the ground, and trampled upon them. 11 (And he
magnified {himself} even to the prince of the host, and from him the continual {sacrifice}
was taken away, and the place of his sanctuary was cast down. 12 And a time of trial was
appointed unto the continual {sacrifice} by reason of transgression.) And it cast down the
truth to the ground; and it practised and prospered.
|
DBY Daniel 8:23 And at the latter time of their kingdom, when
the transgressors shall have come to the full,
a king of bold countenance, and understanding riddles, shall stand up. 24
And his power shall be mighty, but not by his own power; and he shall destroy
marvellously,
and shall prosper, and shall practise, and shall destroy the mighty ones, and the
people of the saints. 25 And through his cunning shall he cause craft to prosper in his
hand; and he will magnify {himself} in his heart, and by prosperity will corrupt many; and
he will stand up against the Prince of princes: but he shall be broken without hand.
|
DBY Revelation 12:3 And another sign was seen in the heaven:
and behold, a great red dragon, having seven heads and ten horns, and on his
heads seven diadems;
[Notice this system has seven crowns or diadems on its heads;
one for each nation.]
DBY Revelation 13:3 and one of his heads {was} as slain to death, and his
wound of death had been healed:
and the whole earth wondered after the beast.
DBY Revelation 13:4 And they did homage to the dragon, because he
gave the authority to the beast; and they did homage to the beast, saying, Who {is}
like to the beast? and who can make war with it? 5 And there was given to it a mouth,
speaking great things and blasphemies; and there was given to it authority to pursue its
career forty-two months. 6 And it opened its mouth for blasphemies against God, to
blaspheme his name and his tabernacle, and those who have their tabernacle in the heaven.
7 And there was given to it to make war with the saints, and to overcome them; and there
was given to it authority over every tribe, and people, and tongue, and nation;
|
...and it had ten horns.
DBY Daniel 7:8 I considered the [ten] horns, and behold,
there came up among them another, a little horn, before which three
of the first horns were plucked up by the roots;
and behold, in this horn were eyes like the eyes of a man, and a mouth speaking great
things.
|
DBY Daniel 7:20 and concerning the ten horns
that were in its head,
and the other [little horn] that came up, and before which three
fell:
even that horn that had eyes, and a mouth speaking great things, and whose look was
more imposing than its fellows. 21 I beheld, and that horn made war with the saints, and
prevailed over them;
|
DBY Daniel 7:24 And as to the ten horns, out of this kingdom
shall arise ten kings;
and another [kingdom] shall arise after them; and he
shall be different from the former, and he shall subdue three kings [was
10, now 7].
25 And he shall speak words against the Most High, and shall wear out the saints of the
most high {places}, and think to change seasons and the law; and they shall be given into
his hand until a time and times and a half time.

Graphic of the Beast of Revelation
|
| Kingdom of God |
| DBY Daniel 2:34 Thou sawest till a stone was
cut out without hands; and it smote the image upon its feet of iron and clay, and broke
them to pieces. 35 Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold broken
in pieces together, and they became like the chaff of the summer threshing-floors; and the
wind carried them away, and no place was found for them. And the stone that smote the
image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth. 36 This is the dream; and we
will tell the interpretation of it before the king.
DBY Daniel 2:44 And in the days of these kings shall the God of the heavens set
up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed; and the sovereignty thereof shall
not be left to another people: it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms,
but itself shall stand for olam. 45 Forasmuch as thou sawest that a stone was cut out of
the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the
silver, and the gold, --the great God hath made known to the king what shall come to pass
hereafter. And the dream is certain, and the interpretation of it sure.
DBY Daniel 7:9 I beheld till thrones were set, and the Ancient of days did sit:
his raiment was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was
flames of fire, {and} its wheels burning fire. 10 A stream of fire issued and came forth
from before him; thousand thousands ministered unto him, and ten thousand times ten
thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened. 11 I beheld
therefore, because of the voice of the great words that the horn spoke; I beheld till the
beast was slain, and its body destroyed, and it was given up to be burned with fire.
DBY Daniel 7:14 And there was given him [Christ] dominion, and glory, and a kingdom,
that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him: his dominion is an olam
dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom {that} which shall not be
destroyed.
DBY Daniel 7:27 But the kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of
the kingdoms under the whole heavens, shall be given to the people of the saints of the
most high {places}. His kingdom is an olam kingdom, and all dominions shall serve
and obey him.
|
DBY Revelation 11:15 And the seventh angel sounded {his} trumpet: and there were great
voices in the heaven, saying, The kingdom of the world of our Lord and of his
Christ is come, and he shall reign to the ages of ages.
DBY Revelation 12:7 And there was war in the heaven: Michael and his angels went to war
with the dragon. And the dragon fought, and his angels; 8 and he prevailed not, nor was
their place found any more in the heaven. 9 And the great dragon was cast out, the ancient
serpent, he who is called Devil and Satan, he who deceives the whole habitable world, he
was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. 10 And I heard a great
voice in the heaven saying, Now is come the salvation and the power and the
kingdom of our God, and the authority of his Christ; for the accuser of our
brethren has been cast out, who accused them before our God day and night:
DBY Revelation 20:6 Blessed and holy he who has part in the first resurrection: over
these the second death has no power; but they shall be priests of God and of the Christ,
and shall reign with him a thousand years.
DBY Revelation 21:4 And he shall wipe away every tear from their eyes; and death shall
not exist any more, nor grief, nor cry, nor distress shall exist any more, for the former
things have passed away. 5 And he that sat on the throne said, Behold, I make all things
new. And he says {to me}, Write, for these words are true and faithful. 6 And he said to
me, It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give to
him that thirsts of the fountain of the water of life freely.
