“And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and painedto be delivered.” (Rev 12:2) “Pained,” in that verse, is from the same Greek word usually translated as “tormented.” Of course, there is also symbolic significance to that verse.
Torment is associated with a variety of conditions: “And his fame went throughout all Syria: and they brought unto him all sick people that were taken with diversdiseases and torments, and those which were possessed with devils, and those which were lunatick, and those that had the palsy; and he healed them.” (Matt 4:24) Of the five categories, the...
“And, behold, they [the devils] cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to tormentus before the time?” (Matt 8:29) The suggestion is that Jesus would torment them. What is “the time” that is referred to? It must be a time when devils (evil angels) will be tormented. “Then shall he say also unto ...

Revelation 6 mentions the Second Coming and describes the reaction of people who are not happy to see Jesus coming: “And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:” (Rev 6:16) They will be more afraid of seeing the face of the Lamb (Who is as harmless as ...
Here is a verse we saw earlier that sounds like something that could only be done by God: “And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented(G928) day and night for ever and ever.” (Rev 20:10) This is said of those who take the mark of the beast: “The sam...
Those cast into the Lake of Fire are said to be tormented “for ever and ever.” Another term for that is “eternal fire” as in: “Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.” (Jude 7) Th...
It helps to understand that torment can come in two types. “And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.” (Matt 8:6) What was wrong with this servant? Notice the servant was both “sick of the palsy” (“palsy” in Greek is “paralutikos” or paralysis) and “tormented.” What did Jesus say to the paralytic who was le...
