Hi @docdelux, I enjoyed reading your article and will check out more of your work. I have also found a number of translation errors in what is the traditional Christian dogma so I can add Lucifer to that list. I've been living in Peru for a number of years , though will be coming to the states soon to work on a project soon. Have noticed the name "Lucero" used here which means the morning star or Venus.

I look at the idea of Lucifer as referring to Satan to be part of the Cosmic Whole, waving a flag saying look over here, this is where we need to bring the Light. Thus Lucifer the bringer of light saying, "Hey, we've got a shadow of separation here. The ego is casting its shadow. Come on, bring in the Light." Your examination of the mistaken translation is great. Thanks.

I'll mention a few words that I have found, you may well be familiar with these. "Elohim" which is used in Genesis in recounting the creation of the firmament and all else and translated as God in English and other languages too, is plural and thus properly translated as the Gods. It's usage includes the angels and also Goddess. Thus creation is really a group effort of the Divine.

The word translated as hell actually means the grave or tomb. "Christ" of course means anointed in Greek and refers to Illumination or Awakening and is a shared status with all who are Awakened to the reality of Oneness of God, which we all are to be without question. Again when Jesus is teaching about prayer in Mathew, the word "krypto" is used and translated as secret, as in pray to God who is in secret, however another translation of "krypto"is "inside", thus "pray to God who is inside".

Obviously there are many more. I'll be checking out more of your posts and am following. I'm a newbie in Steemit also so you can check me out here: https://steemit.com/introduceyourself/@johncongdon/hear-ye-hear-ye-read-all-about-it-old-fogey-joins-steemit . Haven't posted much yet, still looking to learn the ropes but have a lot of ideas to post. Take care and be well.
