The False Prophet appear together in 16:13

The False Prophet’s role as a deceiver: “it deceives those who inhabit the earth” (13:14).

The Greek word for “beast” is therion.

• Therion is a transliteration, or letter-for-letter equivalent, of the Greek word for “beast.” (See 9:11; 16:16)

The number of his name” (13:17): The most widely held conviction is that it refers to Nero.

• one must use the Greek version of Nero’s Latin name (Neron) and then transliterate it into Hebrew

There is little doubt that the Mark on the followers of the Beast mimics the Seal of God on the 144,000.

• The Mark and the Seal are on the foreheads likely connotes a sign of ownership

“Zion” often becomes synonymous with Jerusalem.

Like the voice of many waters (14:2)

• Jesus’ “voice was like the voice of many waters” (1:15)
