Revelation 13:11
Revelation 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
The same Roman papal kingdom, is here said to be
another beast
because he is otherwise described: that beast rose out of the sea, and this beast came
up out of the earth.
But as in \ Daniel in his vision, saw four beasts come up from the sea, \ the same shall arise out of the earth. So here \ is the same beast.
And he had two horns like a Lamb.
This seemeth to be another difference, not real, but in shew; another shape, form, and representation, but yet he was the same beast, though of another head, the beast of the eighth head, with two horns; yet of the seventh head with ten horns.
And he spake as a dragon
his speech betrayeth him to be a devouring beast, and not a Lamb. For though he pretends to be for Christ, the Lamb of God, (as his vicar general,) both in respect of his political and ecclesiastical power, which is his
two horns;
yet he exerciseth both for the dragon, that old serpent called the devil and Satan. \
