Exegesis
The noun phrase ta deka kerata {τὰ δέκα κέρατα | tà dé-ka ké-ra-ta} ‘the ten horns’ functions as the subject, immediately followed by the relative clause ha eides {ἃ εἶδες | há eî-des} ‘which you saw’, which anchors the image in John’s earlier visionary perception.
In context — Revelation 17:12
And the ten horns which you saw are ten kings, who have not yet received a kingdom , but they receive authority as kings for one hour with the beast.
