Quoting: Anonymous Coward 62531067 Each of the verses in this list provides us with a wealth of information about the antichrist in and of themselves.

Dan 11:36 And the king shall do according to his will; and he shall exalt himself, and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak marvellous things against the God of gods, and shall prosper till the indignation be accomplished: for that that is determined shall be done
