If I recall correctly, you are using CentOS 7?   With 7, you really 
should be using firewalld rather than manually writing iptables rules. 
see the firewall section of the RHEL 7 networking manual I previously 
linked, twice.

otherwise, which part of that error is unclear?   check line 2 of 
/etc/sysconfig/iptables, it has a syntax error.   there may be more 
information in the system logs, see chapter 20, 'logging'
