The problem of linguistic interpretation continues to militate against intercultural philosophical discourse, with tendencies to create translatory confusions that take only critical analysis to detect. One of such confusions is the translation of Èṣù in Yoruba theology as Satan/Devil in the Abrahamic monotheistic religions such as Christianity and Islam. Using the critical method of philosophy, this paper argues that the two entities are not the same.
