16) And he causes all, the small and the great, and the rich and the poor, and the free men and the slaves, to be given a mark on their right hand or on their forehead, 17) and he provides that no one will be able to buy or to sell, except the one who has the mark, either the name of the beast or the number of his name. Revelation Chap 13.
I guess it must be a coincidence. Welcome to the brave new world or is it hope and change?

No… it is a unknown author using metaphors and symbolism from the Book of Daniel in the Hebrew Scriptures to weave a political/religious tract speaking out against Emperor Nero in the 1st century C.E.

What’s your question.
