Liuciferis – (lot. lucifer 'šviesos nešėjas, davėjas': lux 'šviesa' + ferre 'nešti') – oro ir Rytų valdovas. Romėnų mitologijoje – Aušrinė žvaigždė (Veneros planeta). Liuciferis niekada nebuvo minimas kaip Šėtono vardas iki Džono Miltono (1608–1674 m.)[reikalingas šaltinis], bet IV a. egzistavo krikščioniška sekta, kurios nariai buvo vadinami liuciferonais.
Liuciferio atitikmuo graikų mitologijoje – titanas Prometėjas. Liuciferiu taip pat buvo vadinama Veneros planeta.
Senasis Testamentas
- Izaijo knyga 14:12 "Kaip tu iškritai iš dangaus, Liuciferi (Lotynų kalba Liuciferis), ryto aušros sūnau? Kaip tu kritai žemėn, kuris buvai pamynęs tautas? "
Naujasis Testamentas
- Antrasis Petro laiškas 1:19 "Taip pat mes turime dar tvirtesnį pranašų žodį. Jūs gerai darote, laikydamiesi jo tarsi žiburio, šviečiančio tamsioje vietoje, kol išauš diena ir jūsų širdyse užtekės aušrinė (Lotynų kalba Liuciferis*) žvaigždė.** "
Sąsaja su šėtonu: Biblijoje, pagal kai kurių krikščionių interpretaciją, teigiama, kad angelas Liuciferis pasidavė puikybei ir pavydui ir nupuolė – prarado savo kilnumą ir tapo velniu (šėtonu). Vis dėlto Biblijoje apie tai aiškiai nėra kalbama. Dantės „Dieviškojoje komedijoje“ maištingasis angelas Liuciferis, Dievo išdavikas, vaizduojamas sukaustytas pragaro dugne. Jis turi tris veidus, kurių nasruose kankinasi 3 didžiausi šio pasaulio nusidėjėliai – Kristų pardavęs Judas Iskariotas ir Cezarį išdavusieji Kasijus bei Brutas.
Kai kurie krikščionys mano, kad būtent Liuciferis paminėtas Izaijo kn. 14:12-14

He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Revelation 13
The Beast out of the Sea
1 The dragon stood on the shore of the sea. And I saw a beast coming out of the sea. It had ten horns and seven heads, with ten crowns on its horns, and on each head a blasphemous name. 2 The beast I saw resembled a leopard, but had feet like those of a bear and a mouth like that of a lion. The dragon gave the beast his power and his throne and great authority. 3 One of the heads of the beast seemed to have had a fatal wound, but the fatal wound had been healed. The whole world was filled with wonder and followed the beast. 4 People worshiped the dragon because he had given authority to the beast, and they also worshiped the beast and asked, “Who is like the beast? Who can wage war against it?” 5 The beast was given a mouth to utter proud words and blasphemies and to exercise its authority for forty-two months. 6 It opened its mouth to blaspheme God, and to slander his name and his dwelling place and those who live in heaven. 7 It was given power to wage war against God’s holy people and to conquer them. And it was given authority over every tribe, people, language and nation. 8 All inhabitants of the earth will worship the beast—all whose names have not been written in the Lamb’s book of life, the Lamb who was slain from the creation of the world. 9 Whoever has ears, let them hear. 10 “If anyone is to go into captivity, into captivity they will go. If anyone is to be killed with the sword, with the sword they will be killed.”This calls for patient endurance and faithfulness on the part of God’s people.
The Beast out of the Earth
11 Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon. 12 It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed. 13 And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people. 14 Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived. 15 The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. 16 It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, 17 so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name. 18 This calls for wisdom. Let the person who has insight calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. That number is 666.
* Книга Исаии
В стихе 14:12 книги пророка Исаии приводятся слова, осуждающие царя Вавилона, с использованием слова «люцифер» как эпитета. Некоторые христианские писатели связали слово «Люцифер» этого стиха с дьяволом, что стало источником популярного мотива о падшем ангеле[19] и низвержения сатаны с небес на землю.
В иудейском оригинале использовано слово הֵילֵל בֶּן-שָׁחַר («блистающий сын Шахара», в значении «сияющий, сын утра»)[20]. Это обращение относится к планете Венера как к утренней звезде, и обычно так и переводится с иврита[21][22]. Также конкорданция Стронга трактует оригинальное слово иврита как «сияющий, носитель света, утренняя звезда — Люцифер»[23].
В Септуагинте слово הֵילֵל переведено на греческий язык как ἐωσφόρος[24], название «утренней звезды» со строчной буквы.
Слово переведено в церковнославянских переводах как «денница, восходящая заутро» и в синодальном переводе как «денница, сын зари»:
Для понимания контекста стиха необходимо взглянуть на главу 14, в которой встречается фраза «Люцифер» или «утренняя звезда». Она содержит пророчество о смерти вавилонского царя, угнетающего евреев, начинаясь со слов:
Далее, в саркастическом стиле, царь сравнивается с «утренней звездой», чем отмечается его высокое политическое значение[25]:
** Aušrinė (Aušros deivė, Dangaus deivė, Rytmetėlė, Rytmetinė žvaigždė) lietuvių mitologijoje – Aušrinės žvaigždės (Veneros) deivė, kuri buvo laikoma nepaprasto grožio mergele. Senovės lietuviai Aušrinę siejo su grožiu, jaunyste, sveikata.[1]
Aušra pirmoji apšviečia dangų, išsklaido tamsą. Pagal rytinę ir vakarinę žvaigždes ūkininkai pradėdavo ir baigdavo darbus.
Aušrinė tautosakoje susijusi su Saule, uždega jai rytais šviesą. Laikoma Saulės dukra.[2] Aušrinė ir jos sesuo Vakarinė vaizduojamos mergelėmis. Aušrinė kartu su Vakarine patarnaudavo Saulei ir jos vyrui Mėnuliui: Aušrinė kūrė ugnį, nešė vandenį, virė sriubą, rytais nušviesdavo Saulei kelią, Vakarinė klojo Saulei patalą.[3] Toks siužetas užfiksuotas Liudviko Rėzos užrašytoje dainoje:
Miela Saulyte, Dievo dukryte,
Kas rytais vakarėliais
Prakūrė tau ugnelę?
Tau klojo patalėlį?
Aušrinė, Vakarinė:
Aušrinė ugnį prakūrė,
Vakarinė
patalą klojo…
