The "Beast" from the Sea in the OT source, Daniel 7: the fourth "kingdom" in a succession of kingdoms
The "Beast" from the Sea in Revelation: the "kingdom" of Rome (widely interpreted as the fourth "kingdom" of Daniel at the time, cf. 4 Ezra)
Babylon in Revelation: the "city" of Rome, personified and worshipped as the goddess Roma (17:9, 18; cf. the fourth Sibylline Oracle)
The seven heads of the "Beast" from the Sea: the succession of emperors from Augustus onwards (17:10, the line of the Sebastenoi from the third Sibylline Oracle)
The "Beast" from the Earth in Revelation: A man (13:18), who fills the role of the eschatological opponent (= the "little horn" of the Beast in Daniel 7-8), an emperor of Rome among the seven who died but who returns from the dead as its eighth king (17:11), who is the object of compulsory worship, whose name yields the number 666, i.e. Nero (cf. Nero as the estachological opponent in the third and fourth Sybilline Oracles and the Ascension of Isaiah).
