The name Lucifer is used in secular writings as referring to Satan but not in the Scriptures. The word “Lucifer” is a translation of the Hebrew word heh·lel', “shining one.” Heh·lel' is not a personal name or a title, but, rather, a term describing the brilliant position taken by Babylon’s dynasty of kings in the line of Nebuchadnezzar. It would not be correct to say that Satan the Devil is the one here called Lucifer as though it were one of his names. The expression here refers primarily to the king of Babylon, for, according to verse four, this is a “proverbial saying against the king of Babylon.”
