Subject: Using the word Lucifer |
Bible Note: Greetings Doc! Thanks for the good quote. :-) There are two separate issues with Is. 14:12. One involves translation, while the other involves interpretation. There appears to be absolutely no justification for translating the Hebrew word in Is. 14:12 as 'Lucifer'. There also appears to be no justifiction for interpreting the passage as a reference to Satan. So, I think Calvin was right on! Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
