Where in the Bible is Lucifer first mentioned?

Answer 1

A:The first biblical mention of Lucifer is in Isaiah chapter 14, but this refers to the king of Babylon, who laid the nations low. It talks of his pomp and splendour, how he had ruled the nations in anger, and his fate after his overthrow by the king of Persia. He had compared himself to the Morning Star (and was thus derisorily called 'Lucifer' - lucem ferre, which mean "light-bearer", a name for the dawn appearance of the planet Venus) and had thought that he would ascend into heaven and sit among the stars, but was now himself persecuted. Christian scholars misunderstood this text and assumed that it referred to Satan or the devil.

Answer 2

Lucifer, the Devil, and Satan are all names used in various portions of The Bible for the fallen angel which is ruler of the world. There are over 100 scripture links or references related to these three specific uses. A good concordance will allow you to research each use of these terms.

Answer 3

The name Lucifer appears only once in the Bible, in Isaiah 14:12. Apparently Lucifer is the name of Satan before his rebellion and fall. See Revelation 17.
