Revelation 12:7-9 - "And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven. And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him."
Isaiah 14:12-15 - This passage describes the fall of Lucifer, who is cast out of Heaven due to his pride and ambition to ascend above God’s throne. While not a war, it is a depiction of rebellion in heaven:
"How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit."
Ezekiel 28:12-17 - This passage, while primarily directed at the king of Tyre, is often interpreted allegorically as referring to Satan’s fall from grace due to his pride:
"Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering... Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee... Thine heart was lifted up because of thy beauty, thou hast corrupted thy wisdom by reason of thy brightness: I will cast thee to the ground, I will lay thee before kings, that they may behold thee."
Luke 10:18 - Jesus mentions seeing Satan fall from heaven, which is sometimes linked to the broader theme of rebellion in heavenly realms:
- "And he said unto them, I beheld Satan as lightning fall from heaven."
Psalm 82 is often interpreted allegorically, where God judges among the "gods" (seen by some as divine beings or angels), which could be understood as asserting divine order over chaos or rebellion.
