Matthew Henry is not entirely accurate on his commentary. The beast of the sea is the Roman Catholic Church/Vatican and her teachings, and the beast out of the earth is the U.S. Think about it using what rev. says. The beast of the sea recieves a deadly wound,(In 1798 General Berthier made his entrance into Rome, abolished the papal government, and established a secular one)around the same time as the U.S. emerged as a new Nation. A beast is defined as a nation is prophesy, and sea represents a populated area, and the earth represents a relatively remote area. Does this match all the following?
