How can you be sure ? It also they have to worship the image. Sounds like a idol that can appear alive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is that written in scripture? It does not sound familiar at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New Living Translation He was then permitted to give life to this statue so that it could speak. Then the statue of the beast commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die. Seems clear the Image has the breath of life and speaks aloud. I don't think it's anything other than an image of the beast since the 2nd beast is... "saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast," That doesn't sound like writing a book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The image of the beast is the Roman republic. Any nation that becomes a republic is an "image of the beast", which is practically all nations on the earth now.

It was an empire ruled by an emperor/ dictator Not of and by the people. They are all an illusion of a true republic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, let's parse the underlined passage of this verse, and put it into modern day vernacular and see if it makes sense: ...saying to them [human earth dwellers], that they, not the False Prophet, should write a 'book' to and about the beast and send it to him so that it can be worshiped? It just doesn't click for me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
