<p>9:19 <em>For the power of the horses is in their mouth and in their tails. For their tails are like those of serpents and have heads, and by means of them they wound</em>- There is some stress that their power is in their mouths (:18). Perhaps the reference is to the power or propaganda. We are now seeing Muslims from worldwide gathering to fight against Israel because of the power of this propaganda, spreading through social media so that the word / mouth of the Islamic entity is truly worldwide. The analogy to serpents wounding men clearly makes this element the latter day seed of the serpent; and according to Gen. 3:15, they will be crushed directly by the seed of the woman, the Lord Jesus. The final conflict between the Lord Jesus and the serpent will be its manifestation in this group; who as we have demonstrated above, refer to the Islamic opposition surrounding Israel.</p><p>The 'wounding' of men is only after there has been an opportunity for the faithful to be sealed. The same word is in 7:3: &quot;Hurt wound not the earth... till we have sealed the servants of God&quot;. But now that window of opportunity is over. Those responsible for the wounding are now fast headed to destruction and the point is approached where they cannot repent. For the same word is found in 22:11: &quot;Him that is unjust s.w. 'wounding', let him be unjust still&quot;.</p>
