Exegesis
A triad of comparative phrases—homoion pardalei {ὅμοιον παρδάλει | hó-mo-i-on par-dá-lei} “like a leopard,” hos arkou {ὡς ἄρκου | hōs ár-kou} “as a bear’s,” and hos stoma leontos {ὡς στόμα λέοντος | hōs stó-ma lé-on-tos} “as a lion’s mouth”—highlights the creature’s composite features, each genitive autou {αὐτοῦ | autoû} “of it” attributing them to the same entity.
In context — Revelation 13:2
And the beast that I saw resembled a leopard, with feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion; and the dragon bestowed on it his power and his throne and vast authority.
