Context Readings

Satan Bound For A Thousand Years

1 I saw an angel come down from heaven. He had the key to the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand. 2 And he laid hold of the dragon, the serpent of old, who is the devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years; 3 He hurled him into the bottomless pit, and shut it and sealed it over him. He could not deceive the nations anymore till the thousand years ended. After that he must be let loose for a little while.
