" but lives no longer; it is about to come up from the abyss and will go off to be destroyed. The people living on earth whose names have not been written before the creation of the world in the book of the living, will all be amazed as they look at the beast. It was once alive; now it no longer lives, but it will reappear."

Who is this 'beast' that was 'once alive, but lives no longer" the occupants on the earth will be amazed at when he makes his re-appearance? Anyone have any theories/thoughts on this?

I would assume that it is beast, the revived Roman Empire, the government of the Antichrist, that comes alive. It attacks the woman (the false religious system, the false prophet) because of jealousy and desire for supremacy.
