You are supplying far more than what these texts actually say. There is
nothing in Ezekiel
28 or Isaiah 14 about the Satan ("Accuser"). Nothing at all. These texts, in
their
contexts (and that's how every biblical text must be taken!) cannot be used
as references
to the activity of the Satan. If you can find the Satan in these texts, then
you are
performing a Pesher technique.
