It's Halloween and it's a time we look at all things spooky - and the Bible has plenty of those! Today we're look at the Mark of the Beast - the infamous 666 (or is it 616?). What is this number and why is it associated with evil? How did it get that association? We will explore how the ancient readers of Revelation may have understood this number and the riddle around it. While we present a few options we know this is not exhaustive and a lot of opinions exist on this. This isn't meant to be a definitive end-all discussion of this subject - only a jumping off point to dig deeper into the original context of this passage. Let's dig in.
