October 22 ~ Things in the Bible not really in the Bible…and a few surprises

Oops of the Day

Lucifer is Satan’s name

Isaiah 14:12 – Job 3:9 – Job 38:7 – Psalm 148:3 – Isaiah 14:12 – Revelation 22:16

Fact of the Day

No! Lucifer (Morning Star) is Jesus’ title, not Satan’s.

Job 3:9 morning stars (describes stars between night and dawn symbolically praising God)
Job 38:7 stars of morning (describes symbolic singing stars between night and dawn)
Psalm 148:3 –shining stars (describes symbolic praising stars)
Isaiah 14:12 – day star (describes king of Babylon taking credit away from God for his kingship)
Revelation 22:16 – bright morning star (JESUS describing himself)

4th century AD – A Catholic bishop was named Lucifer.

5th Century AD, – Jerome, a Catholic priest, translated the Old Testament from Hebrew to Latin. He translated Satan as Lucifer and capitalized it to make it a proper name instead of a description, thus giving the devil another name besides Satan.

Since then, the protestants have been following the example of the Catholics – again.

The title belongs to Jesus.
