Other texts however suggest that it was actually his son Belshazzar whose reign over Jerusalem as a regent was overthrown whereupon Hebrews were freed.

The particular translation in this regard is Helel ben Shahar. For instance, Nebuchadnezzar II who conquered Jerusalem while ruling over Babylon was referred to as the “Morning Star” by the biblical prophet Isaiah in a prophetic vision. It is noteworthy that there are other mentions of people in the bible which are akin to outright comparisons with Lucifer. He was cast from heaven after being defeated by Angel Michael and his army of holier angels. He had been bestowed with the ability to make music coupled with very fair looks prior to his fall from grace according to biblical accounts. His act of rebellion came about because he sought to establish a separate order from the existent one and in so doing upset the status quo. Prior to his demotion from his rank as an archangel, he was one of the more revered angels (seraphim) in heaven according to Christians. In fact, with the passage of time, the name Lucifer has grown synonymous with the devil or Satan despite its complex origins. He has several aliases borne out of his propensity to the darkness such as: the antichrist, king / lord of the darkness, prince of evil, the evil one, lord of temptation, archnemesis, archenemy, et cetera. The Jewish Vulgate also mentions him and the direct translation is derived from the words stella matutina.

Consequently, he has been mentioned within Dante Alighieri’s Inferno as well as John Milton’s Paradise Lost. The name Lucifer only came to imply evil after the advent of Christianity and the acceptance of him as the leader of evil forces. These definitions all bear similarities to the planet Venus which is commonly referred as such. In fact, his name – Lucifer – translates to the bringer of dawn, light bearer or shining one. In his glorious state, he was referred to as the “morning star” and rightly so as he had a sheen around him. More specifically, he is considered the direct nemesis of the creator. In this regard, he is considered the archenemy of everything benign and is referred to extensively within the bible. Lucifer is the most powerful demon in hell and considered the embodiment of evil within the Christian religion.
