LUCIFER AND PROMETHEUS | 2004-10-22

"Lucifer" means "giver of light." It became the name of Satan.

Prometheus was the Greek god who gave fire to mankind. For this the gods condemned him to eternal punsihment.

I wonder if there is a common root. Or did "Lucifer" come from Prometheus among the Greek Jews who became Christians.
