Contextual Overview

¹Then I noticed a great beast coming out of the sea. It also had seven heads and ten horns with ten crowns. Each head had a name written on it that blasphemed God. ²The beast looked like a leopard with bear's feet and a lion's mouth. The dragon gave its strength and power to the beast, as well as its throne and its dominating authority. ³One of the heads looked like it had been wounded, but it had healed. The whole earth was enamored by the beast and fell in love with it. ⁴The world worshiped the dragon because of the power it had given the leopard. They also worshiped the beast saying things like, "The beast is all powerful and not even God can stand against it." ⁵The beast bellowed its proud claims of invincibility and continually hurled insults at God. It was allowed to strut its pride for forty-two months. ⁶It cursed God, his name, his home in heaven, and all those who reside there. ⁷It was allowed to fight against God's cowboys and win. It was also allowed to have authority over every nation, tribe, race, and language. ⁸Everyone living on earth worshiped the beast, except for those whose name was in the brand registry. This book belongs to the Lamb of God that was slain. ⁹Open your ears if you've got 'em! ¹⁰All who are meant to be captured will be. All who are meant to die by the sword will. If you ride for the Lord, ride tall with courage, honor, and faith.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

If any man have an ear, let him hear. And diligently attend to this mystical description of antichrist, as being matter of some difficulty to understand, as well as of great moment and importance, and seriously consider it, that he may know him, and his followers, and avoid them; :-.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

If any man have an ear, let him hear - See the notes on Revelation 2:7. The idea here is, that what was here said respecting the “beast” was worthy of special attention, as it pertained to most important events in the history of the church.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Revelation 13:9. If any man have an ear, let him hear. — These words are evidently introduced to impress the reader with the awfulness of what has just been spoken-all shall worship him whose names are not written in the book of life, as well as to fix his attention upon the following words:-
