1 | Satan.. man or not? | Ezek 28:12 | teragram123 | 57125 | ||
Please compare these passages... they seem so simlar and clearly to be speaking of satan/lucifer... if not than who? Isaiah 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! Luke 10:18 And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven. Ezekiel 28:17 Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee. |

Lucifer means "bringing light." It is used in reference to the king of Babylon (see Isaiah 14:3, 12). Luke 10:18 is a little tougher. First, "Satan" is a Hebrew word meaning "adversary," which is often left untranslated. Hence, Jesus is telling his disciples of the fall of any adversarial force falling away from God (i.e., Heaven). Ezekiel 28:17 is using this as a reference to the king of Tyre (Ezekiel 28:2) in a symbolic sense, that he used to follow God but has corrupted His Word. |

Greetings Teragram123, Perhaps he was never saved or truly regenerated in the first place.. Pride and the spirit to control can utterly destroy a person, even at a person's root. Matthew 27:18 states that Pilate knew that the chief priests and the elders gave Jesus over to be crucified because they were envious of Him.. Yes, I believe that the person spoken of (or personified of) in Ezekiel 28:2-17 sang a different tune from the start, and that being a tune of his own, and not one that was totally in complementing nature with God's tune. And the seeds of rebellion were lain, and eventually the person spoken of (or personified of) in Ezekiel 28:2-17 would be eventually exposed, and his true colors, intentions and nature would be shown for what it was. Blessings to you, Makarios |
