I have one problem with the KJV, it names Satan Lucifer there. I have seen this only in English version, I am Russian, I have two different Russian Bibles and not one of them says Lucifer. Why does it call Satan Lucifer? Lucifer means light bearer and the morning star. I get this feeling that they did it on purpose to draw parallels with Jesus, cause Jesus is a bright morning star in Bible. This bothers me very much that they chose a Roman god that stands for the light as Satan. It doesn't make sense, cause the original text doesn't say Lucifer.
Quoting: shyrlymyrly If memory serves, it had more to do with the KJV relying on the Latin Vulgate for the OT than any sinister intent. My biggest critique of the KJV is over it's heavy emphasis on "the divine right of kings", as James insisted.
