I just heard something on evil the other day. Please consider these verses on Satan:
Ezekial 28:13-17: "You were in Eden, the garden of God; every precious stone was your covering: The ruby, the topaz and the diamond; the beryl, the onyx and the jasper; the lapis lazuli, the turquoise and the emerald; and the gold, the workmanship of your settings and sockets, was in you. On the day that you were created they were prepared. You were the anointed cherub who covers, and I placed you there. You were on the holy mountain of God; you walked in the midst of the stones of fire. You were blameless in your ways from the day you were created until unrighteousness was found in you. By the abundance of your trade you were internally filled with violence, and you sinned; therefore I have cast you as profane from the mountain of God. And I have destroyed you, O covering cherub, from the midst of the stones of fire. Your heart was lifted up because of your beauty; you corrupted your wisdom by reason of your splendor. I cast you to the ground; I put you before kings, that they may see you.”
One of the great mysteries of the Bible is, “How could a perfect creature blameless in its creation in a perfect environment become unrighteous?” The Bible doesn’t say but if we could answer this question we would understand why evil exists.
I believe that you are correct, and I agree with you that these verses are speaking to that old devil, satan.
As with the earlier verse, unfortunately, my obviously defective memory tells me that certain FR Calvinists do not believe that these verses are about satan, rather, they believe that it ONLY describes the human person, "The King of Tyre."
As before, I am probably wrong about this memory, also.

p.s. I think that we might be able to discern, or deduce, from the Bible, a lot more about this "problem of Evil." (But, it wouldn't be easy or quick.)
