The prepositional phrase eis ten limnen tou puros kai theiou {εἰς τὴν λίμνην τοῦ πυρὸς καὶ θείου | eis tḕn lím-nēn toû pyròs kaì theí-ou} specifies the destination, using a genitive construction to describe the lake as characterized by “fire and sulfur,” an established image of eschatological judgment.
In context — Revelation 20:10
And the devil who deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where also the beast and the false prophet are, and they will be tormented day and night for ever and ever .
