Tartaroo
(From Forerunner Commentary)

2 Peter 2:4  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) When God cast them back down to earth, He placed restrictions on their powers and limited them to "their proper domain" or "first estate," that is, the earth. Here, they await their judgment for their rebellion. "Hell" in II Peter 2:4 is tartaroo, a place of restraint for the wicked. Though Satan himself may appear before God's throne in heaven, he and his demons can do only what God allows (Job 1:6-12; 2:1-7). Richard T. Ritenbaugh Basic Doctrines: Satan's Origin and Destiny

Revelation 20:1-2  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) The "bottomless pit" or abyss was pictured by the desert wilderness where the azazel goat was banished. Satan and his demons will be chained by an angel of God (who was symbolized by the man mentioned in Leviticus 16:21). He will be completely prevented from further leading mankind into sin. No longer will Satan be able to broadcast his evil attitudes. The Day of Atonement: The World at One with God
