Interpretation in Second Temple period Judaism[edit]
In the Second temple period literature the main possible reference is found in 2 Enoch, also known as Slavonic Enoch:
However the editor of the standard modern edition (Charlesworth OTP Vol.1) pipelines the verse as a probable later Christian interpolation on the grounds that "Christian explanations of the origin of evil linked Lk 10:18 with Isa 14 and eventually Gen.3 so vs 4 could be a Christian interpolation... Jewish theology concentrated on Gen 6., and this is prominent in the Enoch cycle as in other apocalypses." Further the name used in 2 Enoch, Satanail, is not directly related to the Isaiah 14 text and the surrounding imagery of fire and stones suggests Ezekiel 28.[39]
Other instances of "Lucifer" in the Old Testament Pseudepigrapha are related simply to the "star" Venus, in the Sibylline Oracles battle of the constellations (line 517) "Lucifer fought mounted on the back of Leo",[40] or the entirely rewritten Christian version of the Greek Apocalypse of Ezra 4:32 which has a reference to Lucifer as Antichrist.[41]
Leonidas I (/liːˈɒn.ɨ.dəs/ lee-on-i-dəs or /liːˈɒn.ɨ.dæs/; Doric and Modern Greek: Λεωνίδας [leɔːnídas], Leōnidas; Ionic Greek: Λεωνίδης,Leōnidēs; died 480 BC),[1] was a warrior king of the Greek city-state of Sparta. He led the Spartan forces during the Second Persian War and is remembered for his death at the Battle of Thermopylae. Leonidas was the third son of Anaxandridas II of Sparta,[2] and thus belonged to the Agiad dynasty, who claimed descent from the demigod Heracles.
Hexameter is a metrical line of verse consisting of six feet. It was the standard epic metre in classical Greek and Latin literature, such as in the Iliad, Odyssey and Aeneid. Its use in other genres of composition include Horace's satires, Ovid's Metamorphoses, and the Hymns of Orpheus. According to Greek mythology, hexameter was invented by the godHermes.
In classical hexameter, the six feet follow these rules:
- A foot can be made up of two long syllables (– –), a spondee; or a long and two short syllables, a dactyl (– υ υ).
- The first four feet can contain either one of them.
- The fifth is almost always a dactyl, and last must be a spondee.
Reverse Speech and The Soul
Reverse Speech contains many references to the Soul. It talks about the Soul as being an intricate part of our lives. It says the soul can be damaged, and its state can affect our behaviour and moods. It talks about a spiritual yearning, in fact this theme is a large part of reversed language. In time, with further study, Reverse Speech may give us new insights into our spiritual nature. In this section we will examine speech reversals of a spiritual nature.
