THE BEAST, SUMMARY

Revelation 19:20
And the beast was seized, and with him the false prophet who performed the signs in his presence, by which he deceived those who had received the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image; these two were thrown alive into the lake of fire which burns with brimstone.

The Beast, Summary: This "Beast" is the "little horn" of (Dan 7:24-26), and "desolator" of (Dan 9:27), the "abomination of desolation" of (Mat 24:15), the "man of sin" of (2Th 2:4-8), earth's last and most awful tyrant, Satan's fell instrument of wrath and hatred against God and the Jewish saints. He is, perhaps, identical with the rider on the white horse of (Rev 6:2), who begins by the peaceful conquest of three of the ten kingdoms into which the former Roman empire will then be divided, but who soon establishes the ecclesiastical and governmental tyranny described in Daniel 7, 9, 11; Revelation 13. To him, Satan gives the power which he offered to Christ. (Mat 4:8); (Mat 4:9); (Rev 13:4). See "The great tribulation," (Psa 2:5). (See Scofield) - (Rev 7:14).
