Revelation 17:9> And here is the mind which hath wisdom. The seven heads are seven mountains, on which the woman sitteth.
Revelation 13
1> And i stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
3> And i saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death, and his deadly wound was healed, and all the world wondered after the beast.
Some say the seven mountains refer to Rome. If that were so, why is only one head wounded?
Shouldn't all seven heads be wounded if indeed it were Rome? This is an anomaly and contradicts the other six heads if indeed it were speaking of Rome. For all heads should then be wounded, for Rome is one not seven. One empire under one name..not seven empires but one...Rome.
We also see that one of the heads was wounded.
Can you wound a mountain and then heal it? As though a physical mountain could be wounded or die? Mountains are ROCK. Inanimate objects.
So mountains here must be meaning something else, something symbolic. Not something geographical, but something else all together...
Again, I offer that the seven heads refers to empires. The seven mountains.
Scripture holds the answer. Jeremiah holds the key.
Jeremiah 32:24> Behold the mounts, they are come unto the city to take it, and the city is given into the hand of the Chaldeans, that fight against it, because of the sword, and of the famine, and of the pestilence, and what thou hast spoken hast come to pass, and, behold, thou sees it.
Mounts are of course short for mountains.
Chaldeans are the Babylonians.
Here we see Babylon described as a mountain.
Is this not scriptural identification of the word mountain?
One key to understanding the seven heads of the beast?
Coincidence?
