Rev 13:1 (And he stood on the shore of the sea.) Then I saw a beast rising out of the sea, that had ten horns and seven heads. On his horns were ten royal crowns, and upon his heads were slanderous names. | Dan 7:3, 7, 8; Rev 13:5,6; Rev 17:3,5; Dan 7:25; Dan 11:36; 2 Thes 2:3,4 |
Rev 13:2 Now the beast that I saw was like a leopard, his feet like a lion’s, and his mouth like a bear’s. And the dragon gave him his power and his throne and great authority. | Dan 7:4-6, 8; Rev 16:10; Rev 17:12; Rev 19:20; Rev 20:2 |
Rev 13:3 One of his heads seemed to have been slain, but the fatal wound was healed. The whole earth was amazed and followed the beast. | Dan 7:8 Rev 17:6,8,13,17; Luke 2:1; John 12:19; Acts 8:10,11,13; 2 Thes 2:9-12 |
Rev 13:4 And they worshiped the dragon, because he had given authority to the beast. They also worshiped the beast, chanting, “Who is like the beast, and who can make war against him?” | Ex 15:11; Dan 8:24; Rev 17:14; Deut 9:2; 1 Sam 17:24 |
Rev 13:5 The beast was given a mouth uttering great boasts and blasphemies. It was given authority to act for forty-two months. | Isa 14:13-15; Dan 7:8, 11; Dan 7:20-25; 11:36 Rev 13:7; Rev 11:7 |
Rev 13:6 Then he opened his mouth with blasphemies against God, to slander His name and His tabernacle—that is, those dwelling in heaven. | Dan 7:8; Rev 4:1,4; Rev 5:13; Rev 7:9; Rev 11:12; Rev 12:12; Rev 18:20; Rev 19:1-6; Heb 12:22,23 |
Rev 13:7 He was also permitted to make war against the kedoshim and overcome them, and he was given authority over every tribe and people and tongue and nation. | Dan 7:21; Rev 10:11; Rev 11:18; Rev 17:15; Exo 9:16; Isa 10:15; Isa 37:26; Jer 25:9; Jer 27:6,7; Jer 51:20-24; Dan 5:18-23; Luke 4:6; John 19:11 |
Rev 13:8 All who dwell on the earth shall worship him—everyone whose name has not been written from the foundation of the world in the Book of Life of the Lamb who was slain. | Dan 12:1 Rev 17:8; Eph 1:4; Titus 1:2; 1 Pet 1:19,20 |
Rev 13:9 If anyone has an ear, let him hear. | Rev 2:7,11,17,29 |
Rev 13:10 If anyone is meant for captivity, to captivity he goes. If anyone is to be killed by the sword, by the sword he must be killed. Here is the perseverance and faith of the kedoshim. | Jer 15:2; 43:11; Rev 1:9; Rev 2:2,19; Rev 3:3,10; Rev 14:12; la 3:26; Hab 2:3; Luke 18:1-8; Luke 21:19; Col 1:11; Heb 6:12; Heb 10:36,37; Heb 12:3,4; James 1:2-4; James 5:7,8 |
Rev 13:11 Then I saw another beast rising out of the earth. He had two horns like a lamb and spoke like a dragon. | Dan 8:3; Job 40:15; Rev 13:17; Rev 12:3,4,17; Rev 17:6; Dan 7:8,24,25; 2 Thes 2:4 |
Rev 13:12 He exercises all the authority of the first beast before him, and he makes the earth and all those who dwell in it worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed. | Rev 13:3,14-17; Rev 17:10,11; 2 Thes 2:4 |
Rev 13:13 He performs great signs, even making fire come down from heaven in the sight of men. | 1 Kings 1:9-12; 1 Kings 18:38; Rev 11:5; Num 16:35; 2 King 1:10-14; Mat 16:1; Luke 9:54-56; 2 Tim 3:8 |
Rev 13:14 And he deceives those who dwell on the earth through the signs he is permitted to perform, telling those who dwell on the earth to make an image in honor of the beast who has the sword wound yet lived. | Mark 13:21-23; Rev 14:9,11; Rev 15:2; Rev 16:2; Rev 19:20; Rev 20:4; 2 King 20:7; Eze 8:10; Eze 16:17; Dan 11:36; 2 Thes 2:4 |
Rev 13:15 The second beast was permitted to give life to the image of the first beast, so that the image of the beast could even speak and cause all who would not worship the image of the beast to be killed. | Dan 3:1-7; Dan 7:20,25; Rev 16:2,5; Rev 17:6,14,17; Rev 18:20,24; Rev 19:20; Rev 20:4 |
Rev 13:16 He also causes all—the small and the great, the rich and the poor, the free and the slave—to receive a mark on their right hand or upon their forehead. | Rev 7:3; Exo 13:9; Deut 6:8 (contrast); Deut 11:18; Eze 9:4; 2 Tim 3:8 |
Rev 13:17 And so no one can buy or sell unless he has the mark—either the name of the beast or the number of his name. | Rev 13:18; Rev 15:2 |
Rev 13:18 Here is wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is a number of a man, and his number is 666. | Rev 21:17; Deut 3:11; Rom 3:5 |
Rev 14:1 Then I looked, and behold, the Lamb was standing on Mount Zion, and with Him were 144,000 who had His name and His Father’s name written on their foreheads. | Psa 2:6; Ezek 9:4 Rev 3:12; Rev 7:3; Rev 13:16,17; Luke 12:8 |
Rev 14:2 And I heard a voice from heaven like the roar of rushing waters and the booming of loud thunder. The voice I heard was like harpists playing on their harps. | Ezek 1:24; 43:2 Rev 5:8; Rev 15:2; Rev 18:22; 2 Sam 6:5; 1ch 25:1-7; Psa 33:2; Psa 43:4; Psa 57:8; Psa 92:3; Psa 98:5; Psa 147:7; Psa 149:3; Psa 150:3-6 |
Rev 14:3 And they are singing a new song before the throne and before the four living creatures and the elders; and no one is able to learn the song except the 144,000 who had been redeemed from the earth. | Psa 96:1-6,144:9 Rev 5:9 |
Rev 14:4 These are the ones who have not defiled themselves with women, for they are virgins. These are the ones who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. These have been redeemed from among mankind as firstfruits for God and the Lamb. | Jer 2:3; Amo 6:1; 1 Cor 16:15; James 1:18 |
Rev 14:5 And in their mouth was found no lie—they are blameless. | Son 4:7; Dan 6:4; Hos 10:2; Zeph 3:13; Mal 2:6; Luke 23:4; Eph 5:27; Col 1:22; Jude 1:24; 2 th 2:11-12 |
Rev 14:6 And then I saw another angel flying high in the sky, having a timeless message of good news to proclaim to those who dwell on the earth—to every nation and tribe and tongue and people. | Rev 10:11; Rev 13:7; Dan 4:1; Dan 6:25,26; Eph 3:9; Gal 1:6-9 |
Rev 14:7 He said in a loud voice, “Fear God and give Him glory, because the hour of His judgment has come. Worship the One who made heaven and earth and sea and springs of water.” | Ex 20:11 Rev 4:11; Exo 20:11; Neh 9:6; Psa 33:6; Psa 95:5; Psa 124:8; Psa 146:5,6; Pro 8:22-31; Jer 10:10; Acts 14:15; Acts 17:23-25 (Compare with “Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand.") |
Rev 14:8 Another angel, a second one, followed, saying, “Fallen, fallen, is Babylon the great—she who made all nations drink of the wine of the fury of her immorality.” | Isa 21:9; Jer 51:7-8; Gen 10:9-10; Rev 13:15-17; Rev 17:6 |
Rev 14:9 And another angel, a third one, followed them, saying in a loud voice, “If anyone worships the beast and his image and receives a mark on his forehead or on his hand, | Jer 25:15; Rev 14:11; Rev 13:3-6,11-17 |
Rev 14:10 he shall also drink the wine of God’s fury, poured full strength into the cup of His wrath. And he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone before the holy angels and before the Lamb. | Gen 19:24; Ps 75:8; Isa 51:17 Psa 37:34; Psa 52:6; Psa 91:8; Eze 20:48; Mat 13:41,42,49,50; 2 Thes 1:8,9 |
Rev 14:11 The smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever. Those who worship the beast and its image and those who receive the mark of his name have no rest day or night.” | Isa 34:10; 66:24 Deut 28:65; Isa 57:20; Mat 11:28; Mark 9:43-49; Luke 16:24 |
Rev 14:12 Here is the perseverance of the kedoshim—those who keep the commandments of God and the faith of Yeshua. | Rev 3:8,10; 2 Tim 4:7 |
Rev 14:13 Then I heard a voice from heaven saying, “Write: How fortunate are the dead—those who die in the Lord from now on!” “Yes,” says the Ruach, “that they may rest from their labors, for their deeds follow them.” | Psa 19:11; Psa 85:13; Mat 25:35-40; Luke 16:9; 1 Cor 15:58; Gal 6:7,8; Phil 2:17; 2 Tim 4:7,8; Heb 6:10,11 |
Rev 14:14 Then I looked, and behold, there was a white cloud—and seated on the cloud was one like a son of man. He had a golden crown on His head and a sharp sickle in His hand. | Dan 7:13; Joel 3:12,13; Mat 13:30; Mark 4:29 |
Rev 14:15 Then another angel came out of the Temple, crying out with a loud voice to the One seated on the cloud, “Put in your sickle and reap, for the hour to reap has come, because the harvest of the earth is fully ripe.” | Gen 15:6; Zec 5:6-11; Mat 13:36-42, 23:32; 1 Thes 2:16 |
Rev 14:16 So the One seated on the cloud swung his sickle over the earth, and the earth was harvested. | Rev 14:19; Rev 16:1-21 |
Rev 14:17 Then another angel came out of the Temple in heaven, and he also had a sharp sickle. | Rev 15:5,6; Rev 16:1 |
Rev 14:18 Then another angel—the one who has authority over fire—came out from the altar; and he called out with a loud voice to the one holding the sharp sickle, saying, “Put in your sickle and gather the grape clusters from the vineyard of the earth, because her grapes are ripe.” | Joel 3:12-14; Jer 25:30 |
Rev 14:19 So the angel swung his sickle over the earth and gathered the clusters from the vineyard of the earth and threw them into the great winepress of the wrath of God. | Isa 63:1-6; Rev 19:15-21; Deut 32:32,33 |
Rev 14:20 And the winepress was stomped on outside the city, and blood flowed from the winepress as high as a horse’s bridle for 1,600 stadia. | Joel 3:13; Isa 63:1-3; Rev 19:14-21; Isa 34:5-7; Isa 66:24; Eze 39:17-21 |
Rev 15:1 Then I saw another great and wonderful sign in heaven: seven angels who have seven plagues—the last ones, for with them God’s wrath is finished. | Lev 26:21 Rev 15:7; Rev 14:10,19; Rev 16:19; Rev 19:15; Dan 12:6,7,11,12 |
Rev 15:2 And I saw something like a sea of glass mixed with fire, and those who had overcome the beast and his image and the number of his name standing by the sea of glass, holding the harps of God. | Rev 5:8; Rev 14:2; Rev 19:1-7 |
Rev 15:3 And they are singing the song of Moses the servant of God and the song of the Lamb, saying, “Great and wonderful are Your deeds, Adonai Elohei-Tzva’ot! Just and true are Your ways, O King of the nations! | Ex 15:1-18; Deut 31:30, 32:44; Psa 92:5; 111:2; 139:14 Rev 17:14; Rev 19:16 |
Rev 15:4 Who shall not fear and glorify Your name, O Lord? For You alone are Holy. All the nations shall come and worship before You, for Your righteous acts have been revealed!” | Ex 15:11; Ps 86:9; Isa 66:23; Jer 10:7 Rev 16:7; Rev 19:2; Psa 97:8; Psa 105:7; Isa 26:9 |
Rev 15:5 After these things I looked, and the Temple of the Tent of Witness in heaven was opened. | Ex 38:21 Rev 11:19; Exo 25:21; Num 1:50,53; Mat 27:51 |
Rev 15:6 Out of the Temple came the seven angels having the seven plagues, dressed in pure bright linen and wearing wide gold sashes around their chests. | Lev 26:21 Rev 1:13; Exo 28:5-8; Eze 44:17,18; Luke 24:4 |
Rev 15:7 Then one of the four living creatures gave the seven angels seven golden bowls full of the wrath of God, who lives forever and ever. | Ex 37:16; Rev 4:9; Rev 10:6; 1 Thes 1:9 |
Rev 15:8 And the Temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God and from His power. No one was able to enter the Temple until the seven angels’ seven plagues were finished. | Ex 40:34-35; Lev 26:21; 1 Kings 8:10-11; 2 Chron 5:13-14; Isa 6:1-4 Rev 15:1 |
Rev 16:1 Then I heard a loud voice from the Temple saying to the seven angels, “Go and pour out on the earth the seven bowls of God’s wrath.” | Psa 75:8, 79:6; Jer 10:25; Ezek 22:31; Isa 51:17; Rev 14:9-11; Rev 15:7; 1 Sam 15:3,18; Eze 9:5-8; Eze 10:2; Mat 13:41,42; (compare bowls with 10 plagues: Exo 7-12) |
Rev 16:2 So the first angel went and poured out his bowl on the earth, and foul and painful boils came upon the people having the mark of the beast and worshiping his image. | Ex 9:9-11; Deut 28:35; Psa 79:1-7; Zep 3:8; Rev 13:15-18 |
Rev 16:3 Next the second angel poured out his bowl into the sea, and it became blood like that of a corpse; and every living thing in the sea died. | Ex 7:17-25 Rev 8:9; Gen 7:22 |
Rev 16:4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl into the rivers and the springs of water, and they became blood. | Ex 7:17-21; Ps 78:44 Rev 16:5; Rev 14:7; Exo 7:20; Exo 8:5; Isa 50:2; Eze 35:8; ho 13:15 |
Rev 16:5 Then I heard the angel of the waters saying, “Righteous are You—the Holy One, who is and who was—because You have passed these judgments. | Ps 145:17 Rev 1:4,8; Rev 4:8; Rev 11:17 |
Rev 16:6 For they have poured out the blood of kedoshim and prophets, and You have given them blood to drink—they are deserving!” | Isa 49:26 Rev 11:18; Rev 18:20; Jer 26:11,16; Luke 12:48; Heb 10:29 |
Rev 16:7 Then I heard the altar saying, “Yes, Adonai Elohei-Tzva’ot, true and righteous are Your judgments!” | Ps 19:9; 145:17 Rev 13:10; Rev 14:10; Rev 19:2 |
Rev 16:8 The fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, and it was permitted to scorch people with fire. | Rev 7:16; Rev 9:17,18; Rev 14:18; Psa 19:9; Mal 4:1; Jon 4:8; Mat 13:6 |
Rev 16:9 People were scorched with fierce heat, and they cursed the name of God—the One who has power over these plagues. But they did not repent, to give Him glory. | Rev 11:13; Rev 14:7; Josh 7:19; Jer 13:6; Amo 4:6-12 |
Rev 16:10 Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was plunged into darkness. People gnawed their tongues in pain | Ex 10:21-23 Rev 11:10; Mat 13:42,50; Mat 24:51; Luke 13:28 |
Rev 16:11 and cursed the God of heaven because of their pains and their boils. But they did not repent of their deeds. | Rev 16:9; 2 Tim 3:13 |
Rev 16:12 The sixth angel poured out his bowl over the great river Euphrates; and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east. | Gen 15:8; 2 Sam 8:3; Isa 11:15-16; 41:2,3, 25; 46:11; Jer 51:36; Eze 38-39; Dan 11:43-45; Rev 9:14 |
Rev 16:13 Then I saw—coming from the dragon’s mouth and from the beast’s mouth and from the false prophet’s mouth—three unclean spirits like frogs. | Ex 8:6 Rev 19:20; Rev 20:10; Joel 3:11; Zep 3:8, Isa 43:9 |
Rev 16:14 For they are demonic spirits performing miraculous signs, who go out to the kings of the whole world—to gather them for battle on the great Day of Elohei Tzva’ot. | 1 Kings 22:21-23 |
Rev 16:15 “Behold, I am coming like a thief! How fortunate is the one who stays alert and keeps his clothes on, lest he walk around naked and they see his shamefulness.” | Rev 3:4,18; Exo 32:25; Isa 47:3; Eze 16:37; ho 2:3; Hab 2:15; 2 Cor 5:3; 1 Th 5:4; |
Rev 16:16 Then the spirits gathered the kings to the place called in Hebrew Har-Megiddo. | Judges 5:19; 2 Kings 23:29-30; 2 Chron 35:22; Zech 12:11 Judg 5:19; 2 King 23:29,30; Zec 12:11 |
Rev 16:17 The seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. A loud voice came out of the Temple from the throne, saying, “It is done!” | Rev 10:6,7; Rev 21:6; Dan 12:7-13; John 19:30 |
Rev 16:18 And there were flashes of lightning and rumblings and clashes of thunder and a great earthquake—such as never happened since mankind has been on the earth, so mighty was the quake. | Rev 11:13; Dan 12:1; Zech 14:4 |
Rev 16:19 Then the great city was split into three parts, and the cities of the nations collapsed. Babylon the great was remembered before God, to force her to drink the cup of the wine of His furious wrath. | Jer 25:15 Rev 14:8-10; Rev 18:5; Isa 49:26; Isa 51:17-23; Jer 25:15,16,26 |
Rev 16:20 Every island fled away, and no mountains were to be found. | Rev 6:14; Rev 20:11; Isa 2:14-17; Jer 4:23-25 |
Rev 16:21 Enormous hail—about a hundred pounds each—falls from heaven on the people. And the people cursed God because of the plague of hail—so extreme was that plague. | Ex 9:18-25 Rev 16:9,11; Isa 8:21; Job 2:9; Eze 38:22 |
Rev 17:1 Then one of the seven angels holding the seven bowls came and spoke with me, saying, “Come, I will show you the sentencing of the great prostitute, who sits on many waters. | Jer 51:7,13; Nah 3:4; Isa 1:21; Rev 14:18 (Isa 13-14 and Jer 50-51 are the Babylon chapters) |
Rev 17:2 The earth’s kings committed sexual immorality with her, and those who dwell on the earth got drunk with the wine of her immorality.” | Isa 23:17; Rev 14:8; Rev 18:3,9,23; Jer 51:7 |
Rev 17:3 So he carried me away in the Ruach into a wilderness, and I saw a woman sitting on a scarlet beast that was full of blasphemous names and had seven heads and ten horns. | Dan 7:7,24; Rev 12:3,14; Rev 13:1 |
Rev 17:4 The woman was clothed in purple and scarlet, and adorned with gold and precious stones and pearls. She was holding a golden cup in her hand full of detestable things and the filth of her immorality, | Jer 51:7; Ezek 28:13 Ezr 9:11; Lam 1:9; Eze 24:11,13; Eze 36:25; Rev 18:3 |
Rev 17:5 and on her forehead was written a name, a mystery: “Babylon the Great, the mother of prostitutes and the detestable things of the earth.” | Rev 18:9; Rev 19:2; Rev 22:4 |
Rev 17:6 And I saw the woman drunk with the blood of the kedoshim and with the blood of the witnesses of Yeshua. When I saw her, I was totally astounded. | Hab 1:13 |
Rev 17:7 But the angel said to me, “Why are you astonished? I will tell you the mystery of the woman and of the beast that carries her, which has the seven heads and ten horns. | Rev 17:1-6,8 |
Rev 17:8 The beast that you saw was, and is not, and yet is about to rise up from the abyss and head for destruction. Those who dwell on the earth—whose names have not been written in the Book of Life from the foundation of the world—will be astonished when they see the beast, because he was and is not and is to come. | Ex 32:32-33; Dan 12:1 Rev 13:1-4,11,12; (contrast Rev 1:4) |
Rev 17:9 This calls for a mind having wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains on which the woman is seated. They are also seven kings— | Rev 17:3,7,18; Rev 13:1 |
Rev 17:10 five have fallen, one is, the other has not yet come; and when he comes, he must remain a little while. | Rev 17:10 |
Rev 17:11 The beast that was and is not—he himself is the eighth, and is one of the seven, and is heading for destruction. | Rev 17:8 |
Rev 17:12 The ten horns that you saw are ten kings who have not yet received royal power, but receive authority as kings with the beast for one hour. | Dan 7:24-25 Rev 12:3; Rev 13:1; Dan 2:40-43; Dan 7:7,8,20,24; Zec 1:18-21 |
Rev 17:13 These kings are of one mind, and they give their power and authority to the beast. | Rev 17:17; Isa 10:5-7; Eze 38:10; Acts 4:28 |
Rev 17:14 They will make war against the Lamb, and the Lamb will overcome them—because He is Lord of lords and King of kings, and those with Him are called and chosen and faithful.” | Rev 2:10; Deut 10:17 |
Rev 17:15 Then he tells me, “The waters that you saw, where the prostitute is seated, are peoples and multitudes and nations and tongues. | Jer 51:11-14; Eze 16:37; Eze 23:35; Rev 10:11; Rev 11:9; Rev 13:7,8 |
Rev 17:16 The ten horns that you saw, and the beast—these will hate the prostitute. They will make her desolate and naked, and devour her flesh and burn her up with fire. | Lev 21:9 Rev 18:8,16 |
Rev 17:17 For God has put it into their hearts to do His will, and to be of one mind, and to give their royal power to the beast until the words of God are fulfilled. | Rev 6:11; Rev 10:7; Rev 15:1; Pro 19:21; Isa 45:17; Isa 46:10,11; Jer 27:6,7; Eze 38:16,17; Dan 12:7; John 10:35; John 12:39,40; John 19:24,28 |
Rev 17:18 And the woman that you saw is the great city exercising kingship over the kings of the earth.” | Rev 12:4 |
Rev 18:1 After these things, I saw another angel coming down from heaven, having great authority, and the earth was illuminated by his glory. | Ezek 43:2 Rev 21:23; Isa 60:1-3; Eze 43:2; Luke 17:24; 2 Thes 2:8; Dan 10:6 |
Rev 18:2 He cried out with a mighty voice, saying: “Fallen, fallen is Babylon the great! She has become a den for demons, a haunt for every unclean spirit and for every unclean bird and for every unclean and detestable beast. | Isa 21:9; 34:13-15; Jer 50:30; 51:8, 51:37; Lev 11:13-19; Isa 13:19-22; Isa 14:23; Isa 21:8; Isa 34:11-15; Jer 50:39,40; Jer 51:37; Mark 5:3-5; Luke 8:27,28 |
Rev 18:3 For all the nations have drunk of the wine of the fury of her immorality. The kings of the earth have committed sexual immorality with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich off the power of her self-indulgence.” | Jer 51:7 Jer 51:34; Lam 4:5; Luke 7:25; Isa 48:20; Isa 52:11 |
