Curious, why would any God do such a thing? Imagine you are God for a minute, why would you ever rlelease such a creature onto your creation? If you got rid of this thing for a 1000 years then you (God) obviously know the harm this thing causes. Indeed, that is the reason you got rid of "it"! So you really think your God plays such sick games as this?
The entire premise of this passage ascribes to God some horrible attributes. Consider these are attributes, written by man, are projecting their own human characteristics onto God. Not very flattering.
I seriously don't think God (regardless of which one you hold dear) intentionally hurls harm towards his creation. We do that. Not God.
So God wants to enable the final battle between good and evil? Hmm, suggests people that start wars are not so different than God himself. Wars of any kind cause death. So, he was just kidding about thou shall not kill.
And as always, his reasons will remain a mystery and not revealed. This is one of the biggest "catch all" excuses used by every major religion. That one, and of course this one, "It is God's will."
But gees, the article quotes Deuteronomy. Have you read Deuteronomy? Go back and read it end to end and then tell me you agree with and live your life by what Deuteronomy tells you God wants you to do. Seriously. Have you read it?
I am not anti-God. Not at all. But I am not a subscriber to the major relgions' views of what has been written by men in his name. The God I know is all love and not one that intentionally causes death to his own creations. Wrath is yet another example. He tells is never to kill but yet, he does.
Be extra careful in the things that are taught by men in the name of God and demand you accept it on blind faith. Hitler and many leaders of his type acted the same way. It is an unfair and horrendous way to describe God. Man would do this. Not God.
Well, to be fair, and correct me if I am wrong here, but as far as I can conclude, we humans already had full blown free will before God releases Satan on us again. So, that couldn't be the reason.

Isaiah 45:7 reads: "I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things."
So God created evil? How nice of him.
I know, right?
He's your boy tho...so yanno...
SimonGod says.This is a very detailed breakdown as to "why" God would release Satan after the 1,000 years.

Itβs done because it gives humans free will.
