Deciphering where and what is the Destroyer in Revelations

Written as Apollyon or Abaddon the word has been disguised from its true meaning in Hebrew so here are all the scriptures.
Quote:

And they had a king over them, the angel of the bottomless pit, whose name in the Hebrew tongue is Abaddon, but in Greek his name is Apollyon.
(Rev 9:11)

To start with let's find out what these words mean taken from the Strong's concordance.
Quote:

Apolluōn
ap-ol-loo'hn
Active participle of G622; a destroyer (that is, Satan): - Apollyon.

Quote:


Abaddōn
ab-ad-dohn'
Of Hebrew origin [H11]; a destroying angel: - Abaddon.


Ok so if this is in Hebrew?
Why is there only one reference to it?
If in nearly every reference, God makes stuff simple; so this is saying it is in Hebrew, yet there is only one reference in the whole Bible?
So this made no logical sense, so after looking for the actual context of the word used and the fact it implies to the snare and the mystery running throughout the Bible.
Quote:

perîyts
per-eets'
From H6555; violent, that is, a tyrant: - destroyer, ravenous, robber.


So when this word turns up in every major prophet speech on exactly the same matter. To me it makes far more logical sense, that this is the word being used, especially as all the contexts of these scriptures, pertain to the same thing.

Now though I could add my own summaries to each of these, explain that Paul, John and Simon peter, is what it is referred to as the "destroyer' in all of these.
This basically means most Christianity ideology which doesn't follow Christ, as it stems from Pharisees as a word; not a "Nazarites" or "followers of the way" as where the "Essenes" or "Zedek" (divine priesthood).
So Christ stands and stood against these doctrines according to what is written and this stand as provable Anti-Christ doctrine, as explained in the other articles.
So where you find the word destroyer added, this is taken from the Hebrew and correct as you see above.
So if you look at the context of these knowing who it referring to it sort of makes sense, I feel to most with out adding to.

Jer 7:1-34 The Word that came to Jeremiah from Jehovah, saying, (2) Stand in the gate of Jehovah's house, and declare there this Word, and say, Hear the Word of Jehovah, all Judah, who enter in at these gates to worship Jehovah. (3) So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel, Make your ways and your doings good, and I will cause you to dwell in this place. (4) Do not trust in lying words, saying, the temple of Jehovah, The temple of Jehovah, The temple of Jehovah are these. (5) For if you thoroughly amend your ways and your doings; if you completely do judgment between a man and his neighbour; (6) if you do not oppress the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place, nor walk after other gods to your hurt; (7) then I will cause you to dwell in this place, in the land that I gave to your fathers, forever and ever. (8) Behold, you trust in lying words that cannot do any good. (9) Will you steal, murder, and commit adultery, and swear falsely, and burn incense to Baal, and walk after other gods whom you do not know; (10) and then come and stand before Me in this house which is called by My name, and say, We are delivered to do all these abominations? (11) Has this house, which is called by My name, become a den of robbers (destroyer) in your eyes? Behold, I also have seen, says Jehovah. (12) But go now to My place which was in Shiloh, where I set My name at the first, and see what I did to it for the wickedness of My people Israel. (13) And now, because you have done all these works, says Jehovah, and I spoke to you, rising up early and speaking, but you did not hear; and I called you, but you did not answer; (14) therefore I will do to this house, which is called by My name, in which you trust, and to the place which I gave to you and to your fathers, as I have done to Shiloh. (15) And I will cast you out of My sight, as I have cast out all your brothers, the whole seed of Ephraim. (16) Therefore do not pray for this people, nor lift up cry nor prayer for them, nor make intercession to Me; for I will not hear you. (17) Do you not see what they do in the cities of Judah and in the streets of Jerusalem? (18) The sons gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven and to pour out drink offerings to other gods, that they may provoke Me to anger. (19) Do they vex Me? says Jehovah. Is it not themselves, to the shame of their own faces? (20) Therefore so says the Jehovah God; Behold, My anger and My fury shall be poured out on this place, on man, and on animal, and on the trees of the field, and on the fruit of the ground; and it shall burn, and shall not be put out. (21) So says Jehovah of Hosts, the God of Israel: Put your burnt offerings to your sacrifices, and eat flesh. (22) For I did not speak to your fathers, nor command them in the day that I brought them out of the land of Egypt, concerning burnt offerings or sacrifices. (23) But I commanded them this thing, saying, Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be my people; and walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, so that it may be well with you. (24) But they did not listen, nor bow their ear, but walked in their own plans, in the stubbornness of their evil heart, and went backward and not forward. (25) Since the day that your fathers came out of the land of Egypt until this day I have even sent to you all My servants the prophets, daily rising up early and sending. (26) Yet they did not listen to me, nor bow down their ear, but hardened their neck. They did worse than their fathers. (27) So you shall speak all these words to them, but they will not listen to you; you shall also call to them, but they will not answer you. (28) But you shall say to them, this is a nation which does not obey the voice of Jehovah their God, nor receives instruction; truth has perished, and is cut off from their mouth. (29) Cut off your hair and throw it away, and take up a weeping on the high places. For Jehovah has rejected and forsaken the generation of His wrath. (30) For the sons of Judah have done evil in my sight, says Jehovah. They have set their abominations in the house which is called by My name, in order to defile it. (31) They have built the high places of Tophet, which is in the valley of the son of Hinnom, to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire; which I did not command them, nor did it come into my heart. (32) So, behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that it shall no more be called Tophet, nor the valley of the son of Hinnom, but the Valley of Slaughter. For they shall bury in Tophet, until there is no place. (33) And the bodies of this people shall be food for the birds of the heavens, and for the beasts of the earth; and none shall frighten them away. (34) Then I will cause the voice of gladness to cease from the cities of Judah and from the streets of Jerusalem, and the voice of joy, the voice of the bridegroom, and the voice of the bride. For the land shall be desolate.

Eze 7:1-27 And it happened, the Word of Jehovah came to me, saying, (2) And you, son of man, so says the Lord Jehovah to the land of Israel: An end! The end has come on the four corners of the land. (3) Now the end is on you, and I will send My anger on you and will judge you according to your ways, and will lay on you all your abominations. (4) And My eye shall not spare you, neither will I have pity. But I will repay your ways on you, and your abominations shall be in your midst; and you shall know that I am Jehovah. (5) So says the Lord Jehovah: An evil: Behold, an only evil has come! (6) An end has come, the end has come. It awakes against you; behold, it has come. (7) The encirclement has come to you, O dwellers of the land. The time has come, the day of tumult is near, and not a shout of the mountains. (8) And I will soon pour out My fury on you, and fulfil My anger on you. And I will judge you according to your ways, and will repay you for all your abominations. (9) And My eye shall not spare, neither will I have pity; I will repay you according to your ways and your abominations that are in your midst. And you shall know that I am Jehovah who strikes. (10) Behold the day! Behold, it has come; the encirclement has gone out; the rod has blossomed; pride has budded. (11) Violence has risen up for a rod of wickedness. None of them shall remain, nor of their multitude, nor of any of their riches; nor shall there be wailing for them. (12) The time has come; the day has arrived. Let not the buyer rejoice, nor the seller mourn; for wrath is on all her multitude. (13) For the seller shall not return to that which is sold, although they are still alive; for the vision to all her multitude shall not return, and a man shall not hold his life strong in iniquity. (14) They have blown the trumpet, even to make all ready; but none goes to the battle, for My wrath is on all her multitude. (15) The sword is outside, and the plague and the famine inside. He who is in the field shall die with the sword; and he in the city shall be devoured by famine and plague. (16) But if their fugitives shall escape, then they shall be like doves of the valleys on the mountains, all of them mourning, each one for his iniquity. (17) All hands shall be feeble, and all knees shall go weak as water. (18) They shall also gird on sackcloth, and trembling shall cover them; and shame shall be on all faces, and baldness on all heads. (19) They shall throw their silver in the streets, and their gold shall be an impure thing. Their silver and their gold shall not be able to deliver them in the day of the wrath of Jehovah. They shall not satisfy their souls, neither fill their bowels; because their iniquity has become a stumbling-block for them. (20) And the beauty of His ornament, He set it in majesty. But they made the images of their abominations and of their hateful things in it; therefore I have put it to them as an impure thing. (21) And I will give it into the hands of the strangers for a prize, and to the wicked of the earth for a spoil; and they shall defile it. (22) I will also turn My face from them, and they shall defile My secret place; and violent ones (destroyer) shall enter into it and defile it. (23) Make a chain; for the land is full of bloody judgments, and the city is full of violence. (24) And I will bring the most evil of the nations, and they shall possess their houses. I will also make the pomp of the strong to cease; and their holy places shall be defiled. (25) Ruin comes; and they shall seek peace, but none shall be. (26) Disaster on disaster shall come, and rumour to rumour shall be. And they shall seek a vision from the prophet; but the law shall perish from the priest, and wisdom from the elders. (27) The king shall mourn, and the prince shall be clothed with despair, and the hands of the people of the land shall be troubled. I will do to them according to their way, and according to their judgments I will judge them; and they shall know that I am Jehovah.

And in those times there shall stand up many against the king of the south. Also the robbers (destroyer) of your people shall rise up to establish the vision, but they shall fall.
(Dan 11:14)

Quote:

Isa 35:1-10 The wilderness and the desert shall be glad for them; and the desert shall rejoice and blossom as the crocus. (2) It shall blossom abundantly, and rejoice even with joy and singing; the glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the honor of Carmel and Sharon, they shall see the glory of Jehovah and the majesty of our God. (3) Make the weak hands strong and make the feeble knees sure. (4) Say to those of a hasty heart, Be strong, fear not; behold, your God will come with vengeance, with the full dealing of God. He will come and save you. (5) Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf shall be unstopped. (6) Then the lame shall leap like a deer, and the tongue of the dumb shall sing; for in the wilderness waters shall break out, and streams in the desert. (7) And the parched ground shall become a pool, and the thirsty land shall become springs of water in the home of jackals, in its lair, and a place for the reed and rush. (8) And a highway shall be there, and a way, and it shall be called, The Way of Holiness. The unclean shall not pass over it. But He shall be with them; the wayfaring men, though fools, shall not err in it. (9) No lion shall be there, nor any (destroyer) beast of prey shall go up on it; it shall not be found there; but the redeemed shall walk there. (10) And the ransomed of Jehovah shall return and come to Zion with songs and everlasting joy on their heads; they shall obtain joy and gladness, and sorrow and sighing shall flee away.

Just to remind everyone at this point; that this whole section was also used on why all are sinner is so wrong, and this is one of the main point of the Pharisees teachings that Simon peter also adopted, and this is why has the name stone.

Eze 18:1-32 The Word of Jehovah came to me again, saying, (2) What is it to you that you use this proverb concerning the land of Israel, saying, The fathers have eaten sour grapes and the teeth of the sons are dull? (3) As I live, says the Lord Jehovah, to you there is no longer any occasion to use this proverb in Israel. (4) Behold, all souls are Mine. As the soul of the father, also the soul of the son, they are Mine. The soul that sins, it shall die. (5) But a man that is just and does what is just and right, (6) and has not eaten on the mountains, nor has lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel, nor has defiled his neighbor's wife, nor has come near a menstruating woman, (7) and has not ill-treated any man, but has given the debtor's pledge back to him, has robbed none by violence, has given his bread to the hungry and has covered the naked with a garment; (8) he has not given out on usury, nor has taken any increase, he has withdrawn his hand from iniquity, has done judgment between man and man, (9) has walked in My statutes, and has kept My judgments to deal truly, he is righteous, he shall surely live, says the Lord Jehovah. (10) And if he fathers a son who is violent (destroyer), who sheds blood, and who does to a brother any of these; (11) even if he does do not any of these himself, but his son has, but has even eaten on the mountains, and has defiled his neighbour's wife; (12) has ill-treated the poor and needy; thieving, he stole; has not given back the pledge; and has lifted up his eyes to the idols; has committed abomination; (13) has loaned on usury; and has taken increase; shall he then live? He shall not live! He has done all these abominations; he shall surely die; his blood shall be on him. (14) And, lo, if he fathers a son who sees all his father's sins which he has done, and fears, and does not do like him; (15) who has not eaten on the mountains; nor has lifted up his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel; has not defiled his neighbor's wife; (16) nor has ill-treated any man; has not withheld the pledge; nor has robbed by violence; but has given his bread to the hungry; and has covered the naked with clothes; (17) has withdrawn his hand from the poor; has not received usury nor increase; has done My judgments; has walked in My statutes; he shall not die for the iniquity of his father; he shall surely live. (18) His father, because he extorted, robbed his brother by robbery, and did what is not good among his people; lo, even he shall die in his iniquity. (19) Yet you say, Why? Does not the son bear the iniquity of the father? When the son has done justice and right, has kept all My statutes, and has done them, he shall surely live. (20) The soul that sins, it shall die. The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father, nor shall the father bear the iniquity of the son. The righteousness of the righteous shall be on him, and the wickedness of the wicked shall be on him. (21) But if the wicked will turn from all his sins which he has committed, and keep all My statutes, and do justice and right, he shall surely live; he shall not die. (22) All his transgressions that he has done, they shall not be mentioned to him; in his righteousness that he has done he shall live. (23) Do I actually delight in the death of the wicked? says the Lord Jehovah. Is it not that he should turn from his ways and live? (24) But when the righteous turns from his righteousness and does injustice, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked do, shall he live? All his righteousness that he has done shall not be remembered; in his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has sinned, in them he shall die. (25) Yet you say, The way of Jehovah is not fair. Hear now, O house of Israel: Is not My way fair? Are your ways not unfair? (26) When a righteous one turns away from his righteousness and commits iniquity and dies in them; for his iniquity that he has done, he shall die. (27) Again, when the wicked turns away from his wickedness that he has committed and does that which is lawful and righteous, he shall save his soul alive. (28) Because he looks carefully, and turns away from all his sins that he has committed, he shall surely live; he shall not die. (29) Yet says the house of Israel: The way of Jehovah is not fair. O house of Israel, are not My ways fair? Are not your ways unfair? (30) So I will judge you, O house of Israel, each one of you according to his ways, says the Lord Jehovah. Turn and be made to turn from all your sins; and iniquity shall not be your stumbling-block. (31) Cast away from you all your sins by which you have sinned; and make you a new heart and a new spirit; for why will you die, O house of Israel? (32) For I have no delight in the death of him who dies, says the Lord Jehovah. Therefore turn and live.

Even though I could spend ages explaining these, hopefully in the way I was asked to display them in this context this makes it clear.
In one sentence though this says it still Israel's responsibility to fix the Bible as it is extremely tampered with, as it is their book and so this is a warning again( even though a lot of the work has been done here). To take responsibility for your children's actions; else God will do it for you, since all now follow your book, this is now even larger then it was before, isn't God good in giving you this last opportunity.
