Sorry, that is not what the Hebrew says, and the full passage is describing Satan, as there is none other with those attributes that that can even come close. Many complain that scripture is hard to understand, yet here we have a description plain and simple that can only mean one thing

Here is my reference to Ezekiel 28. I have read it over and over. I don't see Satan in it, although the same attributes were later assigned to the Christian concept of the devil. However, the Jews did not see the description of the king of Tyre identical with Satan.

I understand that some sects/cults interpret Ezekiel as describing the fall of Satan, but I don't and I am not alone

example

or this one

Hebrew? You mean the Pharisaical Bible that was 'redacted' several times since the time of Christ to 'purge' Chriastian bias out of it through Talmud and Mishna?

The 'Hebrew' you read is book that had accent vowells added (and such changes change words not just the accent). And the oldest copy goes to the 9th century AD! That is CE in modern usage. Over eight hundred years after Christ.

The LXX has been a "Hebrew" Bible because it was intended for the Alexandrian Hebrews, translated and bound and all that neatly two hundred years BEFORE Christ, that is BC (or BCE modern).

The Dead Sea Scrolls are "Hebrew" Bible too. And the LXX is what the Apostles quoted as OT Scripture.
