2009-03-09Erik10101010NoWell, I do thank the Expert for his returned response; however, if it is an answer, I've failed to see it. David stated "the word heilel הֵילֵל means 'bright star' and can be translated 'Lucifer' with the alternate meaning of the word being Venus but not Satan. This follows the translation of Jonathan son of Uzziel from 32 BCE (yes, over 2000 years ago!) and is accepted by all Torah commentaries. All this was stated but no precedent was giving as to how it is or was interpreted as "light", seeing that in all other references in the TaNaCh the word heilel or הֵילֵל is consistently translated as "praise" or "howl"... If it is indeed from the root (halal) or הלל I'm lost even more now... Despite the chasm of interpretation I still thank the Expert for his response!

Expertise

I am an ex-student of yeshiva and I like to be presented with Torah study problems. If you have studied the Torah and have questions on the subject matter, I want to hear about it. I am not a Rabbi and not qualified to decide halachic issues. I am still interested in halachic questions for which I can sometimes offer general guidelines or present decisions in halachic works such as Mishna Berurah. I welcome questions from non-Jewish people but I cannot respond to religious references that are not part of Judaism. If you are working on a paper or doing research and want general information on a Jewish subject, I may or may not satisfy your need, depending on how comfortable I am with the question. If you have a personal problem, I am not qualified to help you but I will do what I can to offer you some assistance.
