Scorpions (prophecy)

It is written that the Messiah will trample over His enemies during the Second Advent in the day of Yahweh's Vengeance. During the temptation in the wilderness, the adversary there attempted to tempt Christ by quoting Psalm 91:11-12 where it says "He commanded His messengers concerning You, and by their hands they shall bear You, lest at any time You may strike Your foot against a stone."

Ironically enough, this adversary failed to quote the proceeding verse which says "“Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

The lion is only an allegory for a strong man, and at Luke chapter 10 verses 18 and 19 Yahshua said "I beheld the Adversary falling as lightning from heaven! 19 Behold! I have given to you authority to tread upon serpents and scorpions, and upon all the power of the enemy, and no one shall by any means do you injustice. “ So we see this same idea conveyed in the Psalm, and the very διάβολος speaking to Christ during the temptation in the wilderness was ironically the subject of that same thing, he himself being a dragon and a scorpion.
