Like our national Anthem: cant you see by the dawns early light. Lucifer bringer of Dawn Lucifer (/ˈluːsɪfər/ or /ˈljuːsɪfər/) is the King James Version rendering of the Hebrew word הֵילֵל in Isaiah 14:12.[1] This word, transliterated hêlêl[1] or heylel,[2] occurs only once in the Hebrew Bible[1] and according to the KJV-influenced Strongs Concordance means shining one, morning star, Lucifer.[2] The word Lucifer is taken from the Latin Vulgate,[3] which translates הֵילֵל as lucifer,[Isa 14:12][4][5] meaning the *Morning *Star, the planet Venus, or, as an adjective, light-bringing.[6] The Septuagint renders הֵילֵל in Greek as ἑωσφόρος[7][8][9][10][11] (heōsphoros),[12][13][14] a name, literally *bringer of dawn, for the morning star.[15] Like our national anthem Cant You See by the Dawns Early Light youtu.be/HsdMfWJ7pvA Later Christian tradition came to use the Latin word for *morning star, lucifer, as a proper name *(Lucifer) for **Satan as he was before his fall.[17] As a result, *Lucifer has become a by-word for *Satan in the Church and in popular literature,[3] as in Dante Alighieris Inferno and John Miltons Paradise Lost.[14] However, the Latin word never came to be used almost exclusively, as in English, in this way, and was applied to others also, including ***Christ.[18] (Islamic) In Islam the *Devil is known as Iblīs (Arabic: إبليس, plural: ابالسة abālisah) or Shayṭān (Arabic: شيطان, plural: شياطين shayāṭīn). He has no name corresponding in meaning to that of the *Latin word *lucifer to associate him with the *Morning Star. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lucifer
