A Number
that can helps us with the number 666. In Daniel 9:2 the word number refers to years. John knows Daniel and this might be the clue we need. So lets see if it fits. What happened in the year 666? What do the historians say?

A King
with a daughter. One of his princes, or commanders as other versions would have it, would become a stronger king of the north who shall place the abomination of desolation. Fatimah is the daughter of Mohammed and Muawiyah was his commader in the north. A perfect fit.

A King
according to Daniel. The king of the north cannot be identified without identifying the king of the south and his daughter. Will it be consistent with the “ten horns and the abomination of desolation? Yes, it will.

A Problem
for some Bible versions. As many as 296 in the KJV and as little as 87 in the NIV. How many does your version have? Granted what makes a beast a beast is not well defined but words are. So it looks like translators are interpreting as well as translating. Who can you trust?

A He Or An It
is not clear with all the Bible versions. It should be. Why can’t the translators agree on something this simple? Who can we trust? There are 20 translations that consider the beast in Revelation 13:1 a he and 37 translations call it an it. This is a significant difference. Daniel 7:7 can help us here. The fourth beast is an it in all 52 translations. It has “ten horns” just like the beast in Revelation. If your translation has a he for a beast, you are being misled.

A Fit
with John when it comes to beasts. The “ten horns” is not the only connection. The beast John saw was like a leopard just like Daniel’s third beast. It was also like a bear just like Daniel’s second beast. It was also like a lion just like Daniel’s first beast. The last two beasts of Daniel are the two beasts of the Apocalypse. Another connection. Another fit. Just count them.

A Beast
a beast? The Temple. Don’t mess with the Temple. Babylon, Greece, Rome, and Islam did. The first beast destroyed the first Temple. The second desecrated the second. The third destroyed the second. The fourth is preventing the third. Another connection. Another fit. Just count them.

A Holy Place
spoken of by Jesus. The Dome of the Rock is now in the holy place and it is just one of the three possibilities for the abomination of desolation you will find in Wikipedia. The other two are Antiochus IV Epiphanes in 167 BC and Titus in 70 AD. All three involve the Temple in some way. The destruction of the first Temple by Babylon should be added to this to suggest what makes a beast a beast. The Temple?

A Dynasty
is just a theory for some exegists who have attempted to interpret the Apocalypse. Does it work? Only if you can count dynasties that have attacked the whore. I can’t so I look to others who can. Islam can. The tenth dynasty of Islam destroyed the whore. The second one was the first one to attack her and it built the Dome of the Rock, the abomination of desolation. Time to look at Daniel already connected with “ten horns”.

A Connection
with common words. Now that chapters 9, 11, 17, and 20 are connected with the bottomless pit, we can connect the beast that comes out of the pit with Daniel and other chapters of the Apocalypse. Just look for “ten horns”. This is a major connection and very helpful in identifying the ten horns. First we have to look at the whore who is hated by the ten horns.
