Revelation 17:12




The ten horns which you saw are ten kings who have received no kingdom as yet, but they receive authority for one hour as kings with the beast.


  • ·        This probably alludes to a ten-nation confederation (as in the toes of the Daniel 2:24-45 image), but some take ten as a symbolic number.  (DG)

  • ·        “They are ten kingdoms which shall arise out of the fourth great kingdom there: ten European powers, which in the last time, in concert with and subjugation to the antichristian power, shall make war against Christ. In the precise number and form here indicated, they have not yet arisen . . . What changes in Europe may bring them into the required tale and form, it is not for us to say.” (Alford, 1866)

Daniel 7:24  The ten horns are ten kings who shall arise from this kingdom.  And another shall rise after them; he shall be different from the first ones, and shall subdue three kings.

Psalm 73:22  I was so foolish and ignorant; I was like a beast before You.
