Exegesis
The verse begins with a coordinated nominal structure, kai ta deka kerata ha eides kai to therion {καὶ τὰ δέκα κέρατα ἃ εἶδες καὶ τὸ θηρίον | kaí tà dé-ka ké-ra-ta ha eî-des kaí tò thē-rí-on}, in which the relative clause ha eides {ἃ εἶδες | ha eî-des} “which you saw” modifies “the ten horns,” and the second coordinated noun phrase “and the beast” is joined to it.
In context — Revelation 17:16
And the ten horns that you saw, and the beast—these will hate the prostitute, and they will make her desolate and naked, and they will eat her flesh, and they will burn her up with fire .
