@johntrain I did see that verse the other week and think twice about it. I imagine an argument could go that jesus bound the devil at the cross (the thousand years), but now (the short time) the devil is deceiving the nations.
I can't reconcile it with Rev 20 for a number of reasons. (e.g. why is the thousand years actually a day and the short time 2000+ years)
(the only other argument I've heard is that the devil is 'partially bound', which I find less than satisfying).
