The Antichrist is a man He will be extraordinarily handsome and tall. He will stand out in a crowd, much like King Saul, who was more handsome and taller than anyone else in Israel (1 Samuel 9:2).
The Bible also tells us that he will be a clever man of great intellect. Daniel describes him as somebody who "understands sinister schemes," for "through his cunning...shall cause deceit to prosper under his rule" (Daniel 8:23, 25). According to Daniel, he will "come in peaceably, and seize the kingdom by intrigue" (Daniel 11:21). The Antichrist will begin inconspicuously as one of many minor political leaders, but he will gradually grasp more and more power.
Not only will the Antichrist be handsome and intelligent, but he will also speak with tremendous authority and pride. Revelation 13:5-6 says, "And he was given a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies.... Then he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme His name, His tabernacle, and those who dwell in heaven." Daniel wrote that he will be boastful and "speak pompous words against the Most High" (Daniel 7:25). The Antichrist will defy Almighty God and start his own religion.
The prefix anti not only means "against," but it also means "instead of." Both meanings apply to the Antichrist. His power and authority will come directly from Satan, and he will seek to replace Christ by setting himself up as a deity. He will probably come out of the Jewish Tribe of Dan. The Tribe of Dan is notably absent from the list of the 144,000 sealed in Revelation 7:4-8.
