The Structure (or two) of Revelation 9:7-9

Study:

And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle; and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold, and their faces were as the faces of men. And they had hair as the hair of women, and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron; and the sound of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle. Revelation 9:7-9

Structure:

And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle;

and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold,

and their faces were as the faces of men.

And they had hair as the hair of women,

and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron;

and the sound [of the locusts] of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

Notes:

1. the shapes and sound of the locust are horses in battle and
2. gold & lion is Babylon in Daniel 2 and 7.

Alternate Structure:

And the shapes of the locusts were like unto horses prepared unto battle;

and on their heads were as it were crowns like gold,

and their faces were as the faces of men.

And they had hair as the hair of women,

and their teeth were as the teeth of lions. And they had breastplates, as it were breastplates of iron;

and the sound [of the locusts] of their wings was as the sound of chariots of many horses running to battle.

Further Notes:

1. gold & iron is Babylon, the entire statue, head to foot, in Daniel 2.

Can't say anything else now. Don't know what the purpose of this structure is. If you have any suggestions then please leave a comment.
