There are several mentions of a King of Tyre.

One Ezekiel speaks of has been "assumed" in most christian/Islamic teachings to be the devil/antichrist- though is plainly not named so. Though is described as more then human (e.g. angel), in contrast to how antichrist is described: as men who deny christ was human, men who impersonate the messiah- though was later equated to the "slanderer" known to be the title of many and later reconciled as the entity Satan or "the accuser"

Though the Panbabylonian theory (Babylonian mythology is the source of Jewish/all Semitic mythology) has been used to assert Ezekiel is not comparing the King of Tyre's "fall" to Adam's but is talking of Adam who was the king of Tyre.

The king of Tyre could also allude to King Hiraim 1 who aligned himself with David and Solomon, helping to build the temple mentioned in historian Josephus's Against Apion also in Samuel, Kings, Chronicles of The Bible.

Which is the source of the Hiram Abiff of masonic myth
