  Devil
     (Gr. diabolos), a slanderer, the arch-enemy of man's spiritual
     interest (Job 1:6; Rev. 2:10; Zech. 3:1). He is called also "the
     accuser of the brethen" (Rev. 12:10).
     
       In Lev. 17:7 the word "devil" is the translation of the Hebrew
     _sair_, meaning a "goat" or "satyr" (Isa. 13:21; 34:14),
     alluding to the wood-daemons, the objects of idolatrous worship
     among the heathen.
     
       In Deut. 32:17 and Ps. 106:37 it is the translation of Hebrew
     _shed_, meaning lord, and idol, regarded by the Jews as a
     "demon," as the word is rendered in the Revised Version.
     
       In the narratives of the Gospels regarding the "casting out of
     devils" a different Greek word (daimon) is used. In the time of
     our Lord there were frequent cases of demoniacal possession
     (Matt. 12:25-30; Mark 5:1-20; Luke 4:35; 10:18, etc.).
