Context Readings

Satan Bound For A Thousand Years

1 And I saw an agent coming down out of heaven having the key of the abyss and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he seized the dragon, the old serpent, who is the Devil and Satan, who leads the whole world astray, and bound him a thousand years. 3 And he cast him into the abyss, and locked and sealed over him, so that he would no longer lead the nations astray until the thousand years were ended. After these things he must be loosed for a little time.
