On the Name Sabbatai
The name is Shabbetai שבתי or שבתאי. It is the Hebrew name of the planet Saturn and thus equals Mordechai, from the Babylonian Marduk. A person with this name might be expected to have a female consort or partner or associate called Esther (Persian word for “star” and name of the planet Venus) or a male associate called Hillel (Venus). Hillel has the same meaning as Lucifer. Mythologically there is a concept of the fall of Venus (Helel in Biblical Hebrew). Does this help?
