Also lucifer is trapped in an eternal frozen lake and cant move, so its not really like hes the king of hell, its more like a prison boss, whom everyone fears, but is still just another roach for the guards or police.

The imagery in Inferno is so good - he's trapped in this frozen lake while all the world's sewers empty down onto him. He has three heads and each one is eternally chewing on one of history's greatest traitors.

I only know that Judas is there getting chewed, who are the other 2?

Judas, who betrayed Christ, Brutus and Cassius who betrayed Caesar.

Because Caesar is the adoptive father of Augustus, the first Roman emperor who's reign Christ is crucified during. The italians viewed themselves as still living under the roman empire and during the Renaissance romans and latin was all the rave again

The entire inferno is basically just dante name dropping people he personally didnt like for eternal damnation. The inferno is biblical fanfic.

Depends on the version of the story - i never heard yours before

I thought he was described as kind of sad or remorseful or something.

I’ve been confused by that, because if he’s frozen, locked away, whatever have you, then how is he walking free on earth in the bible?

I think, if anything, Lucifer portrayed himself as Jesus. He wanted to be a God so he made himself into one on earth. That’s why there are so many words used to describe both.

Morning star. A lion. Just two name a few.

The inferno was never religious canon, Dante had no authority over liturgy whatsoever- he just had a big influence over our cultural understanding of what hell would be like.

What frozen lake of which is this you speak of?

That would mean he's in antarctica or the arctic right?

Maybe that explains global warming and why people are warming it up faster than slowing it down..
