Tartarus
Who they were
“For if God didn’t spare angels when they sinned, but cast them down to Tartarus, and committed them to pits of darkness to be reserved for judgment” (2 Peter 2:4). Jude speaks of the same angels, kept “in everlasting bonds under darkness for the judgment of the great day” (Jude 1:6). Peter’s point is that the Lord, who did not spare them, “knows how to deliver the godly out of temptation” (2 Peter 2:9).
