The four beasts of Daniel chapter 7 come up from the sea (Dan.7:3) arising out of the earth (Dan.7:17). They come out from the bottomless pit once it has been opened at the Fifth TRUMPET, First Woe (Re.9:1-2, 12).
These four beasts arise out of the bottomless pit at that same time.
I believe these satanic spiritual entities will possess kings, similarly as Satan entered into Judas (Lk.22:3).
The four beasts are the transgressors (Dan.8:23) and are of a single nation with a plural kingdom (Dan.8:22-23). AFTER the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up (Dan.8:23). He is the little horn (Dan.7:8), the false prophet.
The fourth beast of Daniel chapter 7 is seen in the book of Revelation as the beast of Revelation 13:1.
The little horn/false prophet is seen in the book of Revelation as the beast of Revelation 13:11.
AFTER the battle of Armageddon, the first three beasts/kings of the four beasts/kings (Dan.7:3, Dan.7:17) will have their lives prolonged for a season and time beyond the destruction of the fourth beast/king at the battle of Armageddon (Dan.7:11-12).
