The Mark of the Beast, Revelation 13:15-18

[Teutonic]

I had a question about the mention of a 'mark of the beast' in the book of Revelation, is it meant to be a literal mark upon one's hand and forehead, or is it figurative?

Christreich is available free to read. Hard copy is also available.
And no, not literal.

[Teutonic]

I've got a copy at home but forget the exact interpretation, was discussing it with a co-worker. No worries ill look it up later

[Teutonic]

So as not to leave this thread on an empty note, for anyone else who is interested the explanation for the mark of the beast can be found on pgs 154-155 in ChristReich....
