Is Satan a son of YHWH?

4 w
Question

Reading Job this morning, it dawned on me that twice Satan appears before YHWH amongst the sons of YHWH when they presented themselves before YHWH. This is found in Job 1:6-12 and 2:1-7.

Not once is he kicked out or asked as to why he is present with the other sons.

I always understood that Satan was a created being and therefore came into existence through the will of YHWH, but does this mean that Satan is a son of YHWH and therefore part of the heavenly council?

Does that then also mean that he got his inheritance in Deut 32:8-9 as one of the sons?

In both verses, it includes the word "also". Satan is not included in the Sons of God.

In context, the Sons of God are almost assuredly Job, his boys, and other humans who gathered for offering time. Satan is standing alongside God surveying these people and YHVH says "have you considered my servant Job (who is one of the sons of God).

This is just how Genesis 5 details the sons of God and then they are referenced in Genesis 6 as breaking from their calling and mating with the sinners. Remember, the chapters and numbers aren't really there.

The word also is there in MT and NASB95. It's a given. I don't know why you're not seeing it, bro.

Now the NASB as well. I'll respond to the rest when I get some time today. Work is piling up and I need to prepare for sermon tomorrow. You spent a lot of time so I need to read the whole thing and digest. One thing I caught that bears repeating, though. Genesis 6 says the Nephilim were on the earth when the sons of God went into the women. It goes on to define Nephilim as mighty men of old. Nephilim are just mighty men, not demigods.

Btw, Steve Berkson of MTOI is in the middle of a very good series on Satan. It’s a walk through the Scriptures of all the references to Shatan from start to finish and all the different uses etc

Marriage = sex in that context. Yeshua meant angels don't procreate. One big purpose of marriage is procreation. I'm pretty big on finding the added stuff and don't see a hint of this being added. I'm pretty confident this means angels don't have families or anything like what we do.

The phrase "sons of God" is used exclusively to refer to human beings in the New Testament and is the context of the verses we are discussing. That needs to be our default position. Finding one place where it may not fit should not be our default position.

Sorry, that video is for the torah portion, in the beginning...no specific part.
