Subject: Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28 not Satan! |
Bible Note: Dear Radioman2, I whole-heartedly agree that God many times can speak to Satan through another. But in the two references you cited, Gen. 3:15 and Matt. 16:23, other passages clue us in that this is exactly what the Lord was doing (See Rev. 12:9 and your verse Matt. 16:23). Not so in Isaiah 14 or Ezekiel 28. So without this validation we can only assume that the Lord is literally referring to these two kings. I don't believe there is a way of connecting these two passages, Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28, to Satan apart from citing the traditional viewpoint that so many hold. Based on each passage taken by itself, that particular viewpoint falls flat. STUDENT7300 |
