See MEROM and SEA. That most terrible description of hell, as a lake burning with fire and brimstone, Re 19:20; 21:8, recalls the fire and sea in which Sodom was consumed and swallowed up.
But the beast was taken prisoner, and along with him the false prophet, who had performed signs on his authority, by which he deceived those who accepted the mark of the beast and those who worshiped his image. Both of them were thrown alive into the lake of fire that burns with sulfur.
But the cowards, unbelievers, vile, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars-their share will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death."
