Given the context of how the word “deō” is used in Revelation 20:2, 7, it is likely that the use of deō in Revelation 9:14 is meant to convey the sense that the four angels bound at the Euphrates River are imprisoned in a similar manner that Satan will be imprisoned for one thousand years. “And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,” (Revelation 20:7) ![]() Revelation 20:7 indicates that the binding of Satan for one thousand years is connected to his imprisonment: “And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,” (Revelation 20:2) ![]() The other verse where this word appears is in Revelation 20:2, which describes Satan being bound for 1,000 years.

Revelation 9:13-16 describes the release of four angels who are bound at the Euphrates River and the aftermath of their release: the slaying of a 1/3 of mankind by 200 million horsemen: In this article, I share insight on the four angels bound at the Euphrates River. I believe the four angels bound at the Euphrates River are key players in this conflict. I have spent a lot of time studying the prospect for a major large-scale conflict to transpire in the latter portion of the end times.
