The idea is so basic and simple and found in Genesis 3. It is connected with immortality and living forever. Those who believe in Jesus Christ and the gospel gain immortality and live forever. The mark will be connected with a false gospel and a false promise of immortality. A lie that you will live forever when you take it and a repeat of Genesis 3 when the serpent says "ye shall not surely die." By the way, Nero was pushing up daisy's by the time Revelation was written CIRCA 96 AD. There are no new things under the sun as the word of God states and the serpent will use the same tactic he did in the garden to deceive mankind into becoming "like unto the gods." Some of you are already playing "God" thinking you can correct the Bible with a concordance or your own intellect.
To clear up any misunderstanding that Sheol meant the grave or Gehenna as a real place in the land of the living as all 3 refers to the underworld, but whereas Sheol & Hades is the temporary hell before the spirits are resurrected at the great white throne judgment to suffer eternal punishment in Gehenna in body & soul.
Faith Defenders - Sheol, Hades, and Gehenna
Even then, lean on the Lord Jesus Christ for wisdom in understanding His words in how they are applied in the verses in the KJV.

For someone unfamiliar with 17th-century English, the KJV demands a fair degree of facility with language, and not everyone is language-smart. Intelligence has a great variety of forms, so it is not surprising at all to me that someone who is clearly intelligent in one or several areas (having earned a degree) is not smart in this specific area.
The mark of the beast being the number of man is relying on mankind to provide and not God. That is why the mark of the beast during the great tribulation will be the only means to buy and sell and those with the mark would have been warned ahead of time the consequence for receiving that mark to be able to buy & sell in that New World Order is the lake of fire.
There is no reason not to take that warning as literal.
At one time someone tried to make the UPC bar code as hiding the number 666 among the numbered codes. It may look convincing but another site debunked it. If you want to waste your time on that, you can search for it in the internet.
There is a biochip in Europe that you can put under your skin in your hand to buy and sell; do banking transactions by; but it is not THE mark of the beast yet because it is not the only means to buy & sell.
So the technology is here and the "practical" use for it in a new world order will be obvious when that fiery judgment comes on the earth, burning up one third of the earth ( the western hemisphere... yeah.. that's right... you can kiss USA good bye after the pre trib rapture... ) which will serve as a catalyst for the New World Order, gathering resources to distribute it fairly among those that are members of it as well as be able to keep their jobs and their homes and so forth and so on.
So that is what the mark of the beast 666 is; relying on mankind to provide.
Revelation 13:[SUP]16 [/SUP]And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:[SUP] 17[/SUP]And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.[SUP]18 [/SUP]Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

Arguably it's not.
In fact the NASB gets it wrong out of the gate
with its use of the word "heavens" in Genesis 1:1.
The verse is declaring the beginning of all space and matter,
so the KJV is the only translation that gets it right.
No doubt all the arguments have been hashed to death on here, but the KJV
is inherently more accurate, and honest, than any other English translation.
E.g., the uses of "ye", "thee", "thou", etc., which were no longer in regular
English usage in the early 17th century, were necessarily used in the translation
of the Holy Scriptures to English so as to distinguish singular and plural pronouns.
The KJV is the only translation in which words
added to the text for syntactic clarity are italicized,
which makes it inherently more honest than
your NASB, or any other English translation.

Any honest person knows and admits that the King Jimmy has translated words, transliterated words, mistranslated words, added words, copied words and God does not inspire such fallacies......one such example is Galatians 1:6-7 and the word another used twice.....two entirely different Greek words, two entirely different definitions and yet translated the same.....PFFFFFF JUST ANOTHER MAN MADE WORK.....!
