Every Occurrence of Satan

The following list of every occurrence of the Hebrew word "satan" (Strong's Hebrew #7853-5 and Greek #4567-7) is meant as an aid for the diligent Bible student. (The actually word is in bold type for each verse). It is believed by Christadelphians that satan is a term used frequently (but not always) for sin and/or a person or group who manifests sin. The best approach is to carefully consider each verse and draw conclusions. It is therefore suggested to start the exercise by considering the word satan which has Old and New Testament usage while the word diabolos is wholly a New Testament word. We would wish the student to come to this list of verses without prejudice or presuppositions. Ask these questions about each verse:
  1. What does this verse tell me about satan?
  2. Who is the reference speaking about? (Many times we are not told but this does not leave room for assumptions).
  3. Does the verse actually tell me about a wicked fallen angel? (A common reply is, "Who else could it be?" This, in itself, does not prove the existence of a fallen angel.)
Definition:
The Hebrew satan means adversary or opposer. It has been translated as adversary, adversaries, accusation, resist in the KJV. In most places it has not been translated but transliterated as Satan.
