»God vs Serpent - the real story without bible smear campaign«

"And there was strife in the heaven (1); [one] who is like El (2) and his messengers (3) fought against the serpent beast (4) and the serpent beast and his messengers fought and were not strong enough, neither was a place found of them any longer in the heaven. And the great serpent beast was cast - the old snake, (5) (the one being called accuser (6) and adversary), (7) the one deceiving the habitable whole, (8) was cast into (9) the earth, (10) and his messengers, were cast with him."

End Notes

(1). Heaven, ouranos oo-ran-os', Greek, perhaps from the same as oros, or'-os, to rise, (through the idea of elevation); the sky;
the vaulted expanse of the sky with all things visible in it, the universe, the world, the aerial heavens or sky; the region where the clouds and the tempests gather, and where thunder and lightning are produced; the sidereal or starry heavens; the region above the sidereal heavens; the seat of order of things eternal and consummately perfect; where God dwells and other heavenly beings.

(2). Michael, mikh-ah-ale' who is like El" of Hebrew origin - as used in Scripture, is a name for several OT characters. It is also a general term, or a phrase, where the meaning rather than the name can be applied to anyone, who for the moment represents a leader for a cause, or at times is a leader for the cause of, or under the direction of Yahweh to correct wickedness. The term as used in this sense, may not belong to any one particular messenger, being celestial or terrestrial, but will then be a kind of "name type" used for a Champion, as a Captain, or a Prince of Yahweh's people. It is so employed in this passage, so as to denote Him who is the "Captain" of our salvation.

(2a). El, ale, short form of elohim, Hebrew, strength, mighty, also the Almighty Yahweh, (but also used for any deity, i.e. "a g-d").

(5). Snake, ophis, of'-is, Greek, probably from Strong's 3700 (through the idea of sharpness of vision); a snake, serpent, figuratively (as a type of sly cunning) an artful malicious person; metaphorically with the ancients, the serpent was an emblem of cunning and wisdom in the negative sense.

(6). Accuser, devil, diabolos dee-ab'-ol-os, Greek, false accuser, slanderer, a calumniator (a through caster); metaphorically applied to someone, who, by appearing to oppose the cause of good, may be said to act the part of an accuser,
