I am a little confused at to what who and what beelzebub is. I understand the this name denotes that he is satan/lucifer? Is this correct? What is his role in the affliction of people - what is known to do and achieve with people who are afflicted by beelzebub?
 
As I understand it, Beelzebub is basically the second in command to Satan. He’s the main right hand demon of Lucifer. I think he is chiefly responsible for carrying out the devil’s mission on Earth. I could be wrong though…:confused:
 
I think he was just a demon, atleast according to the book “The Rite: The Making of a Modern-Day Exorcist” He is one of the main demons if I am correct
 
Hey thanks for the information. Does any one else have any thoughts?
 
He is Satan.
Inasmuch as Satan means “adversary”, then we may consider every demon as Satan - that should be the reasoning behind the medal of St. Benedict. For us, it really doesn’t make much of a difference. An exorcist may care about the hierarchy of the fallen angels and their actual names, but I can’t think of one good reason for which we should concern ourselves at all with these details.
