Introduction by SmartSE

Reflinks will help you to turn bare urls into templated references, hopefully leaving you more time to write and reducing link rot caused by bare urls. The tool visits each webpage that is in a bare reference and collects the page title and some other information automatically, the tool has to be checked over manually to make sure that the references are filled in correctly by the tool. You may have to remove some extra information from the template and add extra details if the tool is not able to find it for you. Some links may be marked as dead links incorrectly as the site blocks the tool, you may wish to manually check these dead links before adding the dead link tag to the article. The tool also does a few other minor maintenance tasks.

'''The Son of Perdition''' ({{lang-la| Filius Perditionis}}) ([[Greek language|Greek]]: ο υιος της απωλειας, ''ho huios tes apoleias'') is a phrase associated with a demoniacal title that appears in the [[New Testament]] in the [[Gospel of Saint John]] {{bibleverse-nb||John|17:12}} and in the [[Second Epistle to the Thessalonians]] {{bibleverse-nb||2Thessalonians|2:3}}.

==New Testament==
The two occurrences of the Greek phrase have traditionally been translated consistently in English Bibles from the [[Wycliffe Bible]], following the Latin [[Vulgate]] which has "filius perditionis" (son of perdition) in both instances. However this is not the case in all languages; for example the [[Luther Bible]] renders the use in John as "das verlorene Kind" (the lost child), but the use in 2 Thessalonians as "das Kind des Verderbens" (the child of corruption).

===John 17:12===
In [[Gospel of John|John]] {{bibleverse-nb||John|17:12}}, [[Jesus]], in reference to Judas [[Iscariot]], says that of all his [[Disciple (Christianity)|disciples]], none has been lost except the "son of perdition".
{{quotation|John 17:12 "While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled." [[King James Version]], 1611}}
The [[New International Version]] translates the phrase as "the one doomed to destruction." [[D. A. Carson]] suggests that this verse refers both to Judas' character and to his destiny.<ref>[[D. A. Carson]], ''The Gospel According to John'' (Leicester: Apollos, 1991), 563.</ref>

Various Old Testament origins have been suggested for "that the scripture might be fulfilled." These traditionally include Psalm 41:9 "Yea, mine own familiar friend, in whom I trusted, which did eat of my bread, hath lifted up his heel against me."<ref>James Clark ''A Layman's Theology'' 2008 Page 72 "12, mentions that He has guarded the disciples and "that none of them is lost but the son of perdition, that the scripture might be fulfilled." The prevailing wisdom probably is that the "son of perdition" was Judas, the fulfilled scripture Psalm 41:9, ..."</ref> Also Psalm 109:8 "Let his days be few; and let another take his office." which is interpreted by Peter in Acts 1:16-20 as having being prophetic of Judas.

===2 Thessalonians 2:3===
In [[2 Thessalonians]] {{bibleverse-nb||2nd+thessalonians|2:3}}, Paul referred to "the Son of Perdition" in some future sense from the point in time in which he wrote his epistle. 
{{quotation|2 Thessalonians 2:3 "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition;" [[King James Version]], 1611}}
He appears to equate this image with the [[Man of Sin]].

===Revelation===
Some theologians and scholars also consider "the beast that goes into perdition" mentioned in ''Revelation'' {{bibleverse-nb||Revelation|17:8}} and {{bibleverse-nb||Revelation|17:11}} to be references to the "Son of Perdition."<ref>''Commentary Critical and Explanatory on the Whole Bible,'' Jamieson, Fausset, Brown, ''et al'' Chapter 17</ref><ref>"Doctrinal Divinity" by John Gill, Chapter 14: Of the Spiritual Reign of Christ</ref>

==Derivation of the term==
Similar uses of "son" occur in Hebrew, such as "Sons of corruption" (Isaiah 1:4  בָּנִים מַשְׁחִיתִים benim mishchatim), however the exact Hebrew or Greek term "Son of perdition" does not occur in Jewish writings prior to the New Testament.

According to some modern [[biblical criticism]] New Testament writers derived the "Son of Perdition" (and "[[Man of Sin]]") concepts from Daniel and 1 Maccabees 2:48 "And they did not surrender the horn to the sinner." ''et al.''<ref>Commentary Critical and Explanatory of the Whole Bible, Revelation chapter 17, point 11</ref> John related the "Son of Perdition" concepts by language, referring to "the star that fell from heaven" ''Revelation'' {{bibleverse-nb||Revelation|9:1}} by two names, one Greek, and the other Hebrew. (''Revelation'' {{bibleverse-nb||Revelation|9:11}}) The Greek name is "[[Apollyon]]" (Greek: Aπολλυων), from the Greek root word "apollumi" (Greek:απολλυμι).<ref name=Kittel>{{cite book|title=Theological Dictionary of the New Testament, Volume I|year=1964|publisher=Wm. B. Eerdmans|author=Albrecht Oepke|chapter=ἀπολλυμι|editor=Gerhard Kittel|location=Grand Rapids|page=397}}</ref> It refers to utter loss, eternal destruction, and disassociation." [Strong's ''[http://www.biblestudytools.com/lexicons/greek/kjv/apollumi.html 622]''] The Hebrew name is "[[Abaddon]]" (Greek: Aβαδδων), from the Aramaic root word "'abad", which means the same thing as the Greek root word. Strong's [http://www.biblestudytools.com/lexicons/hebrew/kjv/abad-aramaic-3.html 07] Daniel {{bibleverse-nb||Daniel|7:11}} says that the eventual destiny of the "great beast" is to be slain, and his body "destroyed" ('abad), and given to the eternal flames (generally accepted by religious scholars to be a reference to [[hell]]).

Most historians and critics, and some Jewish and Christian scholars believe that the Book of Daniel is about the events that occurred in Israel from the beginning of the [[Babylonian Captivity]] to the end of the [[Maccabean Revolt]].<ref>http://www.biblicalstudies.org.uk/pdf/re/jewish-apocalyptic_bruce.pdf</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.google.com/search?q=annette+reed+%22babylonian+captivity%22&rls=com.microsoft:en-us&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&startIndex=&startPage=1 |title=annette reed "babylonian captivity" - Google zoeken |publisher=Google.com |date=2010-01-30 |accessdate=2012-03-10}}</ref> [also see [[Book of Daniel]]]

Matthew Henry wrote:

''"Of the kings that came after Antiochus nothing is here prophesied, for that was the most malicious mischievous enemy to the church, that was a type of the son of perdition, whom the Lord shall consume with the breath of his mouth and destroy with the brightness of his coming, and none shall help him."''<ref>Matthew Henry's Complete Commentary on the Bible, Daniel, chapter 11</ref>
