Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.
Regardless what this looks like, the devil casting some into prison, one thing is for certain, it is absurd that the devil would be doing this while he himself is in prison.
Revelation 20:7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,
Either Revelation 2:10 is involving an era of time before satan gets cast into prison, or it's involving an era of time after he is loosed from his prison. Revelation 2:10 clearly isn't involving an era of time when satan himself is in prison. It doesn't matter whether satan's prison is literal or not. It is absurd that while satan himself is depicted as having been cast into prison, that he would then be casting others into another prison. I then wonder if Amils have Revelation 2:10 paralleling their millennium? Be pretty funny if they did.
Devil is under the control of the Father and also the Son, who has been perfected at His resurrection.
Luke 13:32
Devil tried to tempt Christ, and failed.
Devil has failed and gone the way foretold of Him by the Father in the garden of Eden.
Devil is now under full submission to Christ.
The Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit still permit evil, until the time of the restoration of all things. Acts 3:21, that new earth and new heaven.
Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour. And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was being carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple, which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered into the temple. He...

13 The God of Abraham and of Isaac and of Jacob, the God of our fathers, hath glorified His Son Jesus, whom ye delivered up, and denied Him in the presence of Pilate when he was determined to let Him go.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you,
15 and killed the Prince of Life whom God hath raised from the dead, of which we are witnesses.
16 And His name, through faith in His name, hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know. Yea, the faith which is by Him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
17 “And now, brethren, I know that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
18 But those things which God before had shown by the mouth of all His prophets, that Christ should suffer, He hath thus fulfilled.
19 Repent ye therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
20
Then He shall send Jesus Christ, who before was preached unto you,
21
whom Heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began.
22 For Moses truly said unto the fathers, ‘A Prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you from your brethren, like unto me; Him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever He shall say unto you.
23 And it shall come to pass that every soul who will not hear that Prophet shall be destroyed from among the people.’
24 Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those who follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.
25 Ye are the children of the prophets and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, ‘And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.’
26 Unto you first, God, having raised up His Son Jesus, sent Him to bless you in turning every one of you away from his iniquities.”

Luke 13:32
And He said unto them, “Go ye and tell that fox, ‘Behold, I cast out devils and I do cures today and tomorrow, and the third day I shall be
perfected.’
At the return of Christ who is perfect..
1 Corinthians 13:10
But when that which is
perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away.
Hebrews 2:10
For it became Him, for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons unto glory, to make the Captain of their salvation
perfect through sufferings.
Hebrews 5
For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and sacrifices for sins;
2 who can have compassion on the ignorant and on those who are outside of the Way, since he himself is also encompassed by infirmity.
3 And by reason hereof, he ought, both for the people and also for himself, to make offering for sins.
4 And no man taketh this honor unto himself, except he that is called by God, as was Aaron.
5 So also Christ glorified not Himself to be made a high priest, but He that said unto Him, “Thou art My Son; today have I begotten Thee.”
6 And He saith also in another place, “Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedek.”
7 Christ, in the days of His flesh, when He had offered up prayers and supplications with strong crying and tears unto Him that was able to save Him from death, and was heard in that He feared,
8
though He were a Son, yet learned He obedience by the things which He suffered.
9
And being made perfect, He became the author of eternal salvation unto all those who obey Him,
10 being called by God as a high priest after the order of Melchizedek,
11 of whom we have many things to say, which are hard to utter seeing ye are dull of hearing.
12 For at the time when ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again the first principles of the oracles of God, and have become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
13 For every one that useth milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat belongeth to those who are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.
