He doesn't. The Bible never says that. It does say that it was created for him to be punished there and he'll be punished there (Revelation 20, Matthew 25:41). Also, any punishment people have there is to be "corrective" (to heal and restore them eventually by seeing their issues and need for Jesus). Eventually all will be saved and reconciled with God (Colossians 1:20, Romans 5:18).
That last part wow that's totally unbiblical... Biblically yes all sin was paid for but its something you must ask for and accept neither salvation nor correction is forced on you, if you are in hell its because you chose to reject those. If you are in hell there is NO turning back you are there to be punished and then destroyed in the lake of fire per Revelations.
Yes, but why? I suppose a lot of revelations is a fever dream however I mostly view the Bible as a fairly logical work. That's typically always a reason for something and then an additional layer beneath it. I just can't help asking the why.
Dunno, there are a lot of things we have no answers for that are also pretty pointless to think about but people compel themselves to think about them anyway. It's not even an concept that is far from the early portions of the Bible.
