Ezekiel 28:13
Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God, every, precious stone was they covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold; the workmanship of they tabrets and of the pipes was preapared in thee in the day that thou was created

Ezekiel 28:14
Thou are the anoimted Cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so; tou wast up the holy mountain of God in the midst of the stones of Fire.

Ezekiel 28:15
Thou was perfect in they ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee

If Satan was in the Middle of the Garden of Eden was not the tree of Good and Evil also there?

Hoover thanks for explaining your answer make alittle more since now,

I guess Satan himself was in the book of JOB right?

Since Adam and Eve was the only two people or that the way I understand it anyway guess this would not be referring to the Garden of eden after all

Some of the phrases in this passage describing the human king of Tyre may describe Satan. Great care must be taken to interpret these verses with discernment. It is clear that, at times, Ezekiel describes this king in terms that could not apply to a mere man. This king had been in the Garden of Eden (Ezekiel 28:13), had been “anointed as a guardian cherub” (Ezekiel 28:14), and had access to the holy mountain of God (Ezekiel 28:14), but was driven from there (Ezekiel 28:16-17). Ezekiel, therefore, may have been condemning not only the king of Tyre, but Satan, who had motivated the king to sin

In the book of Ezekiel the king of Tyre is used to picture the Devil from the time he was in Eden and when he became iniquitous and was cast out of God’s family. At Ezekiel 28:12-19, though directed to the human “king of Tyre,” this evidently parallels the course taken by the spirit son of God who first sinned. The pride of “the king of Tyre,” his making himself ‘a god,’ his being called a “cherub,” and the reference to “Eden, the garden of God,” certainly correspond to Biblical information concerning Satan the Devil, who became puffed up with pride, is linked to the serpent in Eden, and is called “the god of this system of things.”—1Ti 3:6; Ge 3:1-5, 14, 15; Re 12:9; 2Co 4:4.

Satan wasn't in the garden of Eden...you must be referring to the serpent.

I pulled out the old bible and found that it is a passage referring to the King of Tyre and also to the primordial being. This being is not necessarily Satan as many may say, but refers to the any Cherub that has fallen from grace. It is not in anyway referring to Adam or Eve.

He may have still had the anointing(empowerment),
Romans 11:29 For the gifts and calling of God [are] without repentance.
but I question whether he still had the office(anointed cherub that
covereth).
Would be interesting to see what various people who have studied this issue would say.

Thsi passage is widely understood to be referring to Satan.

It's interesting to note that other passages in the Bible speak of entities as "trees".

Could Satan have been the "Tree" as well as the serpent, or was Satan hidden, and merely appearing to speak through the serpent?

Tune in on Judgment Day for the rest of the story!

This is a fairly detailed prophesy against the city of Tyre, and against the king of Tyre. Literally it was fulfilled with the destruction of Tyre, and Christ spoke about it to His disciples stating that in the judgment it would be more tollerable for the city of Tyre than for those who heard Christ.

it was Satan - he was perfect and beautiful in every way - until he decided in his heart that he was better than God.
