If any one lead them into captivity, he shall be led into captivity: if any one slay with the sword, he shall himself be slain with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.

Here is wisdom: let him who has understanding, compute the number of the beast; for it is the number of a man; and its number is six hundred and sixty-six.

Here is the patience of the saints: here are those who keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

Here is the mind that has wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sits.
