Most of the mysteries are resolved in due course, while Welin himself finds peace (or perhaps just resignation): “I do not fear death. Death must be freedom from fear. The ultimate freedom.” Patmore, Hector M. (2012), Adam, Satan, and the King of Tyre: The Interpretation of Ezekiel 28:11–19 in Late Antiquity, Leiden, The Netherlands: Brill, ISBN 978-90-04-20880-3The Arabic equivalent of the word Satan is Shaitan (شيطان, from the triliteral root š-ṭ-n شطن). The word itself is an adjective (meaning "astray" or "distant", sometimes translated as "devil") that can be applied to both man ("al-ins", الإنس) and al-jinn (الجن), but it is also used in reference to Satan in particular. In the Quran, Satan's name is Iblis ( Arabic pronunciation: [ˈibliːs]), probably a derivative of the Greek word diabolos. [186] Muslims do not regard Satan as the cause of evil, but as a tempter, who takes advantage of humans' inclinations toward self-centeredness. [187] Quran Illustration from a manuscript of Abu Ali Bal'ami's Persian translation of the Annals of al-Tabari, showing Satan ( Iblis) refusing to prostrate before the newly created man ( Adam)

The most common English synonym for "Satan" is " devil", which descends from Middle English devel, from Old English dēofol, that in turn represents an early Germanic borrowing of Latin diabolus (also the source of "diabolical"). This in turn was borrowed from Greek diabolos " slanderer", from diaballein "to slander": dia- "across, through" + ballein "to hurl". [72] In the New Testament, the words Satan and diabolos are used interchangeably as synonyms. [73] [74] Beelzebub, meaning "Lord of Flies", is the contemptuous name given in the Hebrew Bible and New Testament to a Philistine god whose original name has been reconstructed as most probably "Ba'al Zabul", meaning " Baal the Prince". [75] The Synoptic Gospels identify Satan and Beelzebub as the same. [73] The name Abaddon (meaning "place of destruction") is used six times in the Old Testament, mainly as a name for one of the regions of Sheol. [76] Revelation 9:11 describes Abaddon, whose name is translated into Greek as Apollyon, meaning "the destroyer", as an angel who rules the Abyss. [77] In modern usage, Abaddon is sometimes equated with Satan. [76] New Testament Gospels, Acts, and epistles The Devil depicted in The Temptation of Christ, by Ary Scheffer, 1854Rankin has spent nearly three decades in the company of Rebus, about 10 years longer than Chandler with Marlowe, and this relationship shows no sign of medical emergency. Following novels establishing the characters of Clarke and Fox alongside Rebus and his archenemy, Big Ger, the more recent cast members now feel as credible as Rebus himself and the sparks of their interaction create an atmosphere as rich as the plot, boding well for the future. Although James did not experience commercial success during his prime recording years between the 1920s and 1930s, the songs recorded in this period, including “Hard Time Killing Floor Blues” and “22-20 Blues,” have become canonical in the blues repertoire, with “22-20 Blues” popularized by Robert Johnson as “32-20 Blues.” The Muslim historian Al-Tabari, who died in around 923 AD, [186] writes that, before Adam was created, earthly jinn made of smokeless fire roamed the earth and spread corruption. [205] He further relates that Iblis was originally an angel named Azazil or Al-Harith, [206] from a group of angels, created from the fires of simoom, [207] sent by God to confront the earthly jinn. [208] [186] Azazil defeated the jinn in battle and drove them into the mountains, [208] but he became convinced that he was superior to humans and all the other angels, leading to his downfall. [208] In this account, Azazil's group of angels were called jinn because they guarded Jannah (Paradise). [209] In another tradition recorded by Al-Tabari, Satan was one of the earthly jinn, who was taken captive by the angels [194] [186] and brought to Heaven as a prisoner. [194] [186] God appointed him as judge over the other jinn and he became known as Al-Hakam. [194] He fulfilled his duty for a thousand years before growing negligent, [186] but was rehabilitated again and resumed his position until his refusal to bow before Adam.

He’s out there right now on some Edinburgh street, trying to make sense of the world, and determined to endure.
