To Pergamum, Jesus says he knows where they dwell, "where Satan’s throne is" Revelation 2:13. He still commends them for holding fast his name even in the days of Antipas, his faithful witness Revelation 2:13.
This passage belongs to the seven messages to assemblies in Revelation 2. Each message opens with an address to the assembly’s “angel” and a self-description drawn from the opening vision; here the sword image frames the tone of evaluation and authority.
This passage matters because it ties the detail to the larger movement of the book, keeping the answer connected to context rather than isolated wording.
A careful answer keeps the immediate passage, the book's argument, and the whole-Bible storyline together, so the question is answered in context instead of as a detached idea.
Start with Revelation 2:13, then read the surrounding section so the answer stays connected to the passage's flow.
13"I know your works and where you dwell, where Satan`s throne is. You hold firmly to my name, and didn`t deny my faith, even in the days of Antipas my witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
