3:7 “To 3 the angel of the church in Philadelphia write the following: 4
“This is the solemn pronouncement of 5 the Holy One, the True One, who holds the key of David, who opens doors 6 no one can shut, and shuts doors 7 no one can open:
9:1 Then 8 the fifth angel blew his trumpet, and I saw a star that had fallen from the sky 9 to the earth, and he was given the key to the shaft of the abyss. 10
20:1 Then 11 I saw an angel descending from heaven, holding 12 in his hand the key to the abyss and a huge chain. 20:2 He 13 seized the dragon – the ancient serpent, who is the devil and Satan – and tied him up for a thousand years. 20:3 The angel 14 then 15 threw him into the abyss and locked 16 and sealed it so that he could not deceive the nations until the one thousand years were finished. (After these things he must be released for a brief period of time.)
