Prepare thy sons for death on account of the sins of thy father, lest they rise again and inherit the earth, and fill the earth with wars. And I shall rise against them, saith the Lord of hosts, and I shall cause their name to perish, and their remains, and their seed.”[Isaiah 14:12-22] Most evidently by these words is he shown to have fallen from heaven, who formerly was Lucifer, and who used to arise in the morning.

As a garment stained with blood is not pure, so neither shalt thou be comely (or clean); because thou hast destroyed my land, and slain my people. Thou shalt not abide, enduring for ever, a wicked seed. Prepare thy children for slaughter, for the sins of thy father, that they rise not, neither possess my land.”[Isaiah 14:4-21]

... teaching of Christ who teaches humility, but from the spirit of Antichrist, whom the Lord rebukes by His prophet, saying, “For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will place my throne above the stars of God: I will sit on a lofty mountain, above the lofty mountains to the north: I will ascend above the clouds; I will be like the Most High.” And he added, saying, “Yet thou shalt descend into hell, to the foundations of the earth; and they that see thee shall wonder at thee.”[Isaiah 14:15-16] Whence also divine Scripture threatens a like punishment to such in another place, and says, “For the day of the Lord of hosts shall be upon every one that is injurious and proud, and upon every one that is lifted up, and lofty.” By his mouth, ...

Isaiah said concerning him:— Because thy heart has thus exalted thee, therefore thou shalt be brought down to Sheol, and all that look upon thee shall be astonished at thee.[Isaiah 14:15-16] And Sennacherib also said thus:— I will go up to the summit of the mountains and to the shoulders of Lebanon. I will dig and drink water and will dry up with my horses’ hoofs all the deep rivers. And because he thus exalted himself, Isaiah again said concerning him:— Why does the axe boast itself ...
