Revelation 13 describes two beasts: the first rises from the sea, the second from the earth. In this episode, Matt chats about this mysterious second beast. Who, or what, does the land beast symbolize? How would John's first readers have understand this passage? And, moreover, how should modern readers interpret it? Finally, what about the actual mark of the beast? Are there relevant Old Testament passages that serve as the conceptual background for this concept? And what does it have to do with buying and selling? Listen to find out!
