Question 60 - Satan broke the everlasting chains!

1 Peter 5:8 NKJV - "Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour."
Jude 1:6 NKJV - "And the angels who did not keep their proper domain, but left their own abode, He has reserved in everlasting chains under darkness for the judgment of the great day;"
Inference in the question: - How did the Satan, who was imprisoned in everlasting chains under darkness, move by roaring?
Answer:                                                                                                                                                     

                The Lord God imprisoned his angels who were against His prominent rules, i.e., virtue and purity, in His discipline. But, here, we must grasp that He did not imprison the Satan, who is the ruler of cursed angels, because it is explained about the presence of Satan according to the situation i.e., in the temptation of Christ, in the matter of tempting Eve, and Job. In the matter of Job, Satan was seated equal to divine angel in the proximate of Lord. Thus, we must grasp that the Satan was not imprisoned.
