Clause 1
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion,
The Fiery Furnace in Daniel......
Here the king of Babylon established a state religion - the statue to bow down to.
....shall fall down and worship the golden image:
Daniel 3:10
Clause 2
or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;
The Lion's Den of Daniel......
Here the king of Persia violated Daniel's right to worship as he believed.
...Hast thou not signed a decree, that every man that shall ask a petition of any God or man within thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The king answered and said, The thing is true,
Daniel 6:12
The Mark-Of-The-Beast will involve violating BOTH clauses, as demonstrated in the book of Daniel.
And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast,
that the image of the beast should both speak,
and cause that as many as would not
worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Revelation 13:15
