Exegesis
The prepositional phrase dia ta semeia {διὰ τὰ σημεῖα | diá tá sēmeîa} ‘through the signs’ and its relative clause ha edothē autō poiesai enōpion tou thēriou {ἃ ἐδόθη αὐτῷ ποιῆσαι ἐνώπιον τοῦ θηρίου | ha edóthē autô poiêsai enṓpion tou thēríou} ‘which it was given to perform before the beast’ emphasize the bestowed authority and the context in which these miraculous acts occur.
In context — Revelation 13:14
And it deceives those who dwell on the earth through the signs which it was given to perform before the beast , saying to those who dwell on the earth that they should make an image for the beast who has the wound of the sword and lived.
