And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel.

- 1 Chronicles 21:1
And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah.

- 2 Samuel 24:1
I am the root and offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.

- Rev. 22:16

Length: 3/5

Controversy: 5/5

It would appear that God and Satan both provoked David to number Israel (i.e. conduct a census for taxation - always unpopular with humans like those who absolutely, definitely did not write these words). God is also the 'morning star', as is Lucifer1.

You never see God and Lucifer in the same room together... could they by any chance be related?

1Isiaih 14:12: How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning!
