From the same as G5482; a scratch or etching, that is, stamp (as a badge of servitude), or sculptured figure (statue): - graven, mark.
NO.

The MARK in Greek means an ETCHING or ENGRAVING, as an antithesis to the carved ten commandments that were to be put on the forehead and hand.

Saying that wearing a tattoo is a closer step towards getting the mark of the beast is like wearing glasses is the next thing to being like Jesus as a lamb with seven eyes.

Brother Blume, I just had to bump this forward again. It is the simple things that the Greek language of the Bible presents to those who care to look.
