Quis ut Deus (who is like God?) is traditionally ascribed to depictions of St. Michael as that's how the Hebrew of his name translates, such as on his shield in this little statue:

St. Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the Devil. :marseykneel: Stay safe @Lil-Subdued-B and pray for me, too. !Catholics it's been a while since I dropped fun facts. Raphael means healing/healer of God, Gabriel is messenger of God. Anything -el from Hebrew is referring to God "El Elyon". :marseymoreyouknow:

Since I learned of this, I always found it really interesting that Lucifer is generally shown to be darkness, but his name has the opposite meaning.

Latin word lucifer (uncapitalized), meaning "the morning star", "the planet Venus", or, as an adjective, "light-bringing". It is a translation of the Hebrew word הֵילֵל, hêlēl, meaning "Shining One".

It would be cool to see a depiction of him actually looking like a shining angel, but still be evil of course.

Catholics do not identify "Lucifer" as Satan/the devil since it indeed is an anachronistic name, that's Prot stuff and a much later tradition from the Reformation era @YALLAHblessYoTraplord

Interesting. Tbh, I'm versed in what is the Catholic cannon in regards to angels. There is so much different contradictory information floating around about them, and it does not seem like it's important theological knowledge for an average person.

So Satan is the Devil, and Lucifer is really not recognized as anything by the Church?

Jimmy Akin answered this one (classic long block of text ping !Christians !Catholics):

Recently I got a query from someone wondering about an anti-Catholic video that claimed "the pope's deacon" invoked Lucifer during the Easter Vigil liturgy and referred to Jesus as his Son.

Of course, that's not what happened, but to understand what really did happen, you need to know a few things about "lucifer."

What does the word lucifer mean?

It's a Latin word derived from the roots lux (light) and ferre (to carry).

It means "light bearer" or "light bringer," and it was not originally used in connection with the devil.

Instead, it could be used multiple ways. For example, anybody carrying a torch at night was a lucifer (light bringer).

It was also used as a name for the Morning Star (i.e., the planet Venus), because this is the brightest object in the sky other than the sun and the moon. As a result, Venus is the first star seen in the evening (the Evening Star) and the last star seen in the morning (the Morning Star).

Venus is also known—in English—as the Day Star because it can be seen in the day.

Because sight of it in the morning heralds the light of day, it was referred to by Latin speakers as the "light bringer" or lucifer.

So there was no connection with the devil?

No. In fact, it was used as an ordinary name. In the 300s, St. Lucifer of Cagliari was a defender of the deity of Christ and of St. Athanasius against the Arians.

Another bishop in the 300s—Lucifer of Siena—also bore this name.

Is the symbol of the Morning Star used in any surprising ways?

Yes. The Bible uses it as a symbol for Jesus Christ. In the book of Revelation, we read:

"I Jesus have sent my angel to you with this testimony for the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, the bright morning star" (Rev. 22:16).

>That's prot stuff

Is this just a Catholic interpretation?

No. In fact, the Protestant Reformers Luther and Calvin acknowledged it.

Raziel, (Hebrew: רָזִיאֵל Rāzīʾēl, "God is my Mystery") also known as Gallitsur (Hebrew: גַּלִּיצוּר Gallīṣūr) is an angel within the teachings of Jewish mysticism (of the Kabbalah of Judaism) who is the "Angel of Secrets" and the "Angel of Mysteries". He is also called "Keeper of All Magic." He is one of the angels associated with the sephirah Chokmah of Kabbalah, alongside Jophiel.

The angel Raziel can be compared to the Manda d-Hayyi of Mandaeism. Both are described as intermediaries who convey divine knowledge to humans, especially Adam. In Jewish mysticism, Raziel delivers the "Sefer Raziel" to Adam, containing esoteric secrets about the universe and divine mysteries, while in Mandaism, Manda d-Hayyi instructs Adam about the mysteries of life and creation.

He's not present in the Christian canon, only the Kabbalah/modern Jewish stuff.
