The Devil & Death

"...that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; Hebrews 2:14

Q: Who is it? 
A: The devil.
Q: What then is the grave?-
A: It is Satan's stronghold, his prison house. 
Q: How say some, then, that death is a friend? 
A: That I know not, for the Scripture declares that it is an enemy. "The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death." (1 Corinthians 15:26).

--The fact that death is the last enemy that is slain shows that it is the
greatest and strongest of all enemies.

--It is a hard and cruel enemy, so much so that the void that is left where the loved one was so rudely torn away, all testify that death is an enemy, no matter what people, misled by heathen, stoic philosophy, say of it. 
It is a cruel, bitter enemy, 
with not a single redeeming attractive feature."
E.J. Waggoner
