Reading 3

As I was reading through the text I noticed that Milton says that Satan was floating on the lake of fire. Is this an ability of all demons and heavenly beings, or is there a strange commonality between Satan and Jesus, who is also known for walking on water?

  1. Milton doesn't say that Satan WALKS on water, but I think that you will see some paradoxically inverted parallels between Satan and Moses/Jesus. After all, Satan is often referred to as the anti-Christ!
