Why Does Satan Have 7 Heads & 10 Horns?

Hey everyone, welcome to Mythology Explained. In today's video we're going to answer an interesting and deceptively complicated question: Why does Satan Have 7 heads and 10 horns.First, we're going to look at what the Book of Revelation is, especially at the passage that pertains to the Red Dragon, a monstrous creature with seven heads and 10 horns who is thought to be Satan. Second, we'll quickly look at what Eschatology is (eschatology being the aspect of theology that focuses on death, judgment, the transcendence of the soul, and the destiny of humanity.) Third, we're going to look at the four lenses of Eschatology (preterism, historicism, futurism, and idealism), delving into each of them in turn and using each of them to understand the significance of Satan, as the Red Dragon of Revelation, having seven heads and 10 horns. Alright, let's get into it.The Book of Revelation is the final book of the bible. It is an apocalyptic and highly symbolic work that describes a vision received by the apostle John, revealing divine messages about the future, the final judgment, and the ultimate triumph of good over evil. It speaks of cosmic battles, the return of Jesus Christ, the establishment of a new heaven and earth, and the ultimate victory of God's Kingdom.Most germane to this video is the passage from the Book of Revelation that describes Satan as a Red Dragon and details the battle in heaven. In it, Satan and his angels fight against the angels who remain faithful to God.The battle is punctuated by the defeat of Satan and the expulsion of him and the angels he led astray from heaven. We'll begin with this passage, and then we'll spend the rest of the video examining what eschatology - its various branches - has to say about Satan's monstrous appearance. Here's the passage:"Then another sign appeared in heaven: an enormous red dragon with seven heads and ten horns and seven crowns on its heads. Its tail swept a third of the stars out of the sky and flung them to the earth. The dragon stood in front of the woman who was about to give birth, so that it might devour her child the moment he was born. She gave birth to a son, a male child, who "will rule all the nations with an iron scepter." And her child was snatched up to God and to his throne. The woman fled into the wilderness to a place prepared for her by God, where she might be taken care of for 1,260 days."
