성경구절

“And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.” “내가 보니 천사가 깊은 구렁의 열쇠와 큰 쇠사슬을 그의 손에 가지고 하늘에서부터 내려와서.”

기원과 적용

The New International Version(NIV) 성경에 의하면, The bottomless pit 이나 abyss는 사탄이 사는 장소를 말합니다. 여기서 예수님으로 묘사된 한 천사는 깊은 구렁으로 사탄을 천년동안 묶기위해 오실 것입니다. 이 기간동안 교회는 평화와 번영을 누릴 상당한 시간을 가져야만 합니다.
