The christian bible has many stories that are reinterpretations of pagan myth.
Cain and Abel is a variant on the Set and Osiris story. One brother killed another out of jealousy.
Jesus and Hercules are related tales too. They're both the son of a god, born to a mortal woman, who performed many great deeds (miracles), before joining their father in the heavens.
The Lucifer/Prometheus link is a good one too...

Lucifer-is bad yes just a bad angle do you blame him. Prometheus is Greek myth- do you believe that-genesis is smart-Greek myth are stories to you explain the unexplained

in case you study up on Zeus and all his offspring, you'll lose any perceivable connection... once you've studied mythology for a lengthy time period the connections you're making don't have any experience. Greek (and different's cultures) Gods have many human attributes, even as you've a staggering polarity/ branch for major monotheistic religions. on Prometheus/ devil connection... without the in spite of the reality that of 'fireplace' I see no extra connection, sorry... very different. My concepts.

Lucifer has more in common with the greek's God of the underworld Hades.

I don't. Lucifer was one of God's highest Angels. Lucifer means light bearer. He thought he was better than God and wanted to tske over the throne of Heaven. Prometheus is, as YOU put it, a myth. Lucifer/Satan isn't.
