tormented.
• His followers are destroyed by a divine judgment upon earth, but the devil who had led them by his deceits is cast into the lake of fire and brimstone. (“Lectures on Revelation 20: Part 3” by W. Kelly)
• For the first time in the history of the race (from Gen. 3 to Rev. 20) we have an earth without a sinner upon its surface. Satan has now to be dealt with. (“Revelation 20: The Millennium and the Judgment of the Dead” by W. Scott)
• As the dragon he is shut up, as Satan he is loosed, and as the devil he is cast into the lake of fire. In this last war the dragon is not named. Satan, signifying adversary, is the open and declared enemy and adversary of God, of Christ, of the saints, of Israel, and in that character he stands out apart from human agents as the leader of the hosts who gather against the camp and city. But as the devil, the deceiver and tempter of men, he is cast into everlasting torment. (“Revelation 20: The Millennium and the Judgment of the Dead” by W. Scott)
• “Fire and brimstone” are figures of inexpressible torment (see Rev. 14:10; Isa. 30:33). (“Revelation 20: The Millennium and the Judgment of the Dead” by W. Scott)
• We do not contend for actual literal flames, for the devil is a spirit (see also Luke 16:23-24). Fire consumes natural objects. But we do most strongly insist upon that which the figures are meant to teach, “outer darkness,” “wailing and gnashing of teeth,” “a never dying worm and quenchless fire,” “fire and brimstone,” and so on. The truth is that in the lake of fire mental agony and corporeal suffering are united and endured in degree proportioned to the guilt of those who have sinned. The punishment is in exact measure to the sin, but all is everlasting or eternal. (“Revelation 20: The Millennium and the Judgment of the Dead” by W. Scott)
• “Day and night” shows that the torment is without intermission, unceasing. “For the ages of ages” signifies here and in Revelation 14:11 eternity in its full and proper meaning—never-ending existence. (“Revelation 20: The Millennium and the Judgment of the Dead” by W. Scott)
