So a friend of mine told me something that helped me figure this out
He said in certain translations of the bible the mark of the beast is actually 616
So Lamech prophesied he would be avenged 77 times and he is the 8th generation from Adam
77 x 8 = 616
666 is a sign of satire since it is the trinity of knowledge from the forbidden tree that Adam and Eve stole fruit from from God
666 is a numerological number meaning satire
And Lamech mocked the the protection and wrath of God by killing Cain and he mocked his wives by being the first adulterer in the bible since he had two wives - he also mocked the grace of God by assuming he would not be condemned despite suffering the vengeance of Cain 7 times over
So Lamech the name of the beast is a sign of mockery - his name also means despair
And the bible says that mocking others leads to despair
And to carry the mark on the forehead is to mock God by worshiping idols or the material and physical and sexual and aesthetic world
And the carry the mark on the right hand is to mock human beings by judging them with your real or imagined level of righteousness than graciously forgiving them
When you mock God with your idols - when you mock human beings with your moral superiority over them - you are unable to give people and things or God the respect and love and attention and care and patience they deserve
This is the mark of the beast - when people disrespect God or human beings by viewing them as light hearted jokes and images of dissension and disrespect
