The Angel with the Great Chain
Revelation 20:1-2
This unnamed angel is described in Chapter 20 as coming down out of heaven, obviously straight from the presence of the Lord himself. Some scholars believe this to be the “Angel of the Lord” which in the Old Testament was a reference to Jesus himself. He has been delegated the responsibility and the power to bind Satan with the great chain, rendering him powerless. He throws the bound dragon into the Abyss (the abode of the dead) and with the key he has been given, locks and seals the dragon in for a thousand years. This time period is referred to as the millennium, during which Christ reigns as King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
