Answer 2

A large number of Christian historians believe Emperor Nero was the mentioned Anti-Christ of The Bible and that parts of Revelations were a history book.

The Antichrist had to have ruled before John the Divine wrote the book of Revelations in either 68 AD or 96 AD. In Revelations, John wrote the beast who once ruled shall rule again. Who ruled before 68 AD or 96 AD? Emperor Nero.

Aside from the 666, the blow to the head (Nero's suicide), the timeline of his rule.

In the book Ascension of Isaiah, Nero is first identified as the Anti-Christ. It says "the slayer of his mother (he killed his mother Agrippina), who himself this king, will persecute the plant which the Twelve Apostles of the Beloved have planted. Of the Twelve one will be delivered into his hands."

..."a lawless king will come and there will come with him all the powers of this world, and they will hearken unto him in all that he desires." (The Roman Empire which basically ruled the known world at the time)

- The beast in the bottomless pit arguement.

In 310, Lactantius wrote that Nero "suddenly disappeared, and even the burial-place of that noxious wild beast was nowhere to be seen. This has led some persons of extravagant imagination to suppose that, having been conveyed to a distant region, he is still reserved alive; and to him they apply the Sibylline verses."

- "this king, will persecute the plant which the Twelve Apostles of the Beloved have planted. Of the Twelve one will be delivered into his hands."

The Bishop Eusebius was the first to write that Paul was beheaded in Rome during the reign of Nero.
