How long is the little season referred to in Rev. 3:20, when satan is released for a little while?
Revelation 20:3
ESV - 3 And threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, so that he might not deceive the nations any longer, until the thousand years were ended. After that he must be released for a little while.

My opinion is that, if the thousand-year reign is 1000 years (which it is) and if the kingdom was considered as a year with four seasons, then Satan's little season could be as long as 250 years.

My hypothesis is that the Little Season may have started with the American Revolution b/c of a number of things. I think you could be right, Robyn, that the Little Season could be a fourth of the whole, which would be 250 years… if correct. Guessing that the above is the right guess, this could mean that we’re almost through this. July 4, 2026. I hope I’m right, but honestly, I have nothing but guesses.
