In this verse, Satan and the king are used interchangeably. It means that Satan was really the King of Tyre! God talks about the king of Tyre and Satan the devil almost as one and the same, because Satan rules over Kings!

Ezekiel ch. 28 reveal to me how as human being our life here on earth is a reflection of what go on in the spirit world. Here was a king no doubt was loved by his pears admired by those who was subjected to his ruler-ship yet when the prophet look at him under discernment he saw Lucifer incarnated.
