Revelation 20:3 Context
1And I saw an Angel come down from heauen, hauing the key of the bottomles pit, & a great chaine in his hand. 2And hee laid hold on the dragon that old serpent, which is the deuill and Satan, and bound him a thousand yeres, 3And cast him into the bottomlesse pit, and shut him vp, and set a seale vpon him, that he should deceiue the nations no more, till the thousand yeeres should bee fulfilled: and after that hee must be loosed a little season. 4And I saw thrones, and they sate vpon them, and iudgement was giuen vnto them: & I saw the soules of them that were beheaded for the witnesse of Iesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had receiued his marke vpon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they liued and reigned with Christ a thousand yeeres. 5But the rest of the dead liued not againe vntill the thousand yeeres were finished. This is the first resurrection.
