Shalom,

Here is the original Greek of Rev. 17:9 from the Greek Textus Recptus:

Rev 17:9
ωδε^{5602 ADV} ο^{3588 T-NSM} νους^{3563 N-NSM} ο^{3588 T-NSM} εχων^{2192 V-PAP-NSM} σοφιαν^{4678 N-ASF} αι^{3588 T-NPF} επτα^{2033 A-NUI} κεφαλαι^{2776 N-NPF} ορη^{3735 N-NPN} εισιν^{1510 V-PAI-3P} επτα^{2033 A-NUI} οπου^{3699 ADV} η^{3588 T-NSF}

γυνη^{1135 N-NSF (WOMAN)} καθηται^{2521 V-PNI-3S (SITS)} επ^{1909 PREP (UPON)} αυτων^{846 P-GPN (THEM)}

Rev. 17:9
Here the mind having wisdom. The Seven Heads Mountains are Seven, where the Woman sits upon THEM. αυτων^{846 P-GPN} There greek word ‘autos’ used here for where the Woman sits (MOUNTAINS) is a - pronoun PLURAL genitive neuter.

The Greek Textus Receptus clearly states that the Woman sits upon ALL 7 Mountains (Kingdoms) and NOT just merely upon some other part of the Beast (its back, one head, etc.).

Please note if we loose the understanding above of the Woman sitting upon ALL 7 ‘former’ (by the time of his appearance) Kingdoms we will NOT be able to correctly ‘identify’ who the WHORE/Harlot actually is.

Until His Trumpet Sounds,

I am often amazed at the great lengths we go to trying to prove a point with the Bible. It consumes our time, our thoughts, and our dedication. This is Satan's smoke screen to keep us from doing the true call of the Bible. If we feel that we have a superior understanding, interpretation, or message from the Holy Scriptures; then, we have to be careful that we haven't entered into "prideful boasting." This is why we named this website DOWEKNOW--to be a constant reminder that maybe we need to rethink what we think we know. WeDoKnow that the only thing that we should be constantly keeping in front of the world is John 3:16! Paul says:

Galatians 6:
¹⁴May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world.

Stop spending your time proving or disproving certain beliefs about the Bible. I can see that you are a very learned person, and I do respect intellect; however, replace your proving of "dogmas and creeds and ideas" with the simple message of John 3:16 and "do" the Word instead of trying to "dissect" it. The true message of the Bible is as humble and simple as the birth of Christ; as powerful as His death on the cross, and as everlasting as His own resurrection. As a strong reminder...

John 3:
¹⁶For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Mark 4

¹And he began again to teach by the sea side: and there was gathered unto him a great multitude, so that he entered into a ship, and sat in the sea; and the whole multitude was by the sea on the land.

²And he taught them many things by parables, and said unto them in his doctrine,

³Hearken; Behold, there went out a sower to sow:

⁴And it came to pass, as he sowed, some fell by the way side, and the fowls of the air came and devoured it up.

⁵And some fell on stony ground, where it had not much earth; and immediately it sprang up, because it had no depth of earth:

⁶But when the sun was up, it was scorched; and because it had no root, it withered away.

⁷And some fell among thorns, and the thorns grew up, and choked it, and it yielded no fruit.

⁸And other fell on good ground, and did yield fruit that sprang up and increased; and brought forth, some thirty, and some sixty, and some an hundred.

⁹And he said unto them, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

¹⁰And when he was alone, they that were about him with the twelve asked of him the parable.

¹¹And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

¹²That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

¹³And he said unto them, Know ye not this parable? and how then will ye know all parables?

¹⁴The sower soweth the word.

¹⁵And these are they by the way side, where the word is sown; but when they have heard, Satan cometh immediately, and taketh away the word that was sown in their hearts.

¹⁶And these are they likewise which are sown on stony ground; who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with gladness;

¹⁷And have no root in themselves, and so endure but for a time: afterward, when affliction or persecution ariseth for the word's sake, immediately they are offended.

¹⁸And these are they which are sown among thorns; such as hear the word,

¹⁹And the cares of this world, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in, choke the word, and it becometh unfruitful.

²⁰And these are they which are sown on good ground; such as hear the word, and receive it, and bring forth fruit, some thirtyfold, some sixty, and some an hundred.

²¹And he said unto them, Is a candle brought to be put under a bushel, or under a bed? and not to be set on a candlestick?

²²For there is nothing hid, which shall not be manifested; neither was any thing kept secret, but that it should come abroad.

²³If any man have ears to hear, let him hear.

²⁴And he said unto them, Take heed what ye hear: with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you: and unto you that hear shall more be given.

²⁵For he that hath, to him shall be given: and he that hath not, from him shall be taken even that which he hath.

²⁶And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;

²⁷And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.

²⁸For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.

²⁹But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.

³⁰And he said, Whereunto shall we liken the kingdom of God? or with what comparison shall we compare it?

³¹It is like a grain of mustard seed, which, when it is sown in the earth, is less than all the seeds that be in the earth:

³²But when it is sown, it groweth up, and becometh greater than all herbs, and shooteth out great branches; so that the fowls of the air may lodge under the shadow of it

May we get about the true work of believers which is the Great Commission:

Mark 16:
¹⁵And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
