Then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord will kill with the breath of his mouth, and bring to nothing by the brightness of his coming;
The Greek for the statement "with the brightness of His coming" signifies superhuman, divine appearance. The blazing brightness of the face of Jesus will be sufficient to destroy the Antichrist and wipe out all of his followers. When the enemies of Jesus see His face it will paralyze them in such fashion that they will become maniacs, screaming and begging for the great boulders of the mountains to roll down upon them and hide them from the face of the Christ! (Green 269).
