Biblical PN 1. Another title for SATAN ( occurs 99 times between 1 Nephi 12:17 and Moroni 7:17)

Etymology

The English word DEVIL is distantly related to diabolos, the Greek translation of the Hebrew word, śāṭān (see Job 1:6 in the Hebrew Bible and in the Septuagint). Diabolos means “slanderer, accuser.” Other names in the Book of Mormon for the DEVIL include SATAN and LUCIFER.
