Scripture ... Num 22:22,32; 1Sa 29:4; 2Sa 19:22; 1Ki 5:4, 11:14,23,25; 1Ch 21:1; Job 1:6-2:7; Psa 38:20, 71:13, 109:4,6,20,29; Zec 3:1-2 ... Are you saying the angel was Satan? The word satan in the Hebrew doesn't always refer to a being like the one in Job. Satan is also translated adversary, which makes sense in Numbers 22. The angel of the Lord is not Satan, but an adversary ... and he told Balaam he was an adversary "because your way was contrary to me" (v 32). I cited all the OT passages on the Hebrew word "satan" ... which refer to the being and which do not ... one verse is both. |

Dear Searcher, I'm saying that the angel of the Lord in Numbers 22:22 was Satan, just as David was Satan in 1 Sa 29:4, and God was Satan in the parallel accounts of 1 Chr 21:1 and 2 Sa 24:1, and Peter was Satan in the New Testament. The word "Satan" has taken on a totally unBiblical meaning when you take it to mean a supernatural fallen angel monster. In the Bible the word is only used to refer to an adversary. But anyway, enough of that, we've been through all that before. I'm taking a sabbatical from the forum for a while - it's eating up far too much of my time...! Okay, Dr. B. |
