Revelation - 20:2 Meaning
“And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,”
King James Version (KJV)
Matthew Henry's Concise Commentary
20:1-3 Here is a vision, showing by a figure the restraints laid on Satan himself. Christ, with Almighty power, will keep the devil from deceiving mankind as he has hitherto done. He never wants power and instruments to break the power of Satan. Christ shuts by his power, and seals by his authority. The church shall have a time of peace and prosperity, but all her trials are not yet over.
“And they said one to another, Who hath done this thing? And when they enquired and asked, they said, Gideon the son of Joash hath done this thing.”
