You just do not quite grasp these scriptures correctly brother. You seem to be a little to quick to jump in head first without studying. Firstly, we know the Little Horn is a MAN via many Scriptures. Rev. 13 says its the Number of A MAN. Daniel 7 and 8 shows you its a MAN because he has EYES and a MOUTH that speaks Blasphemies. As per the Scriptures you cited Daniel 8:10 is speaking about the High Priests of Israel where the same word is used to describe them in various places in the Old Testament. Gabriel the Angel remember Interprets everything that Daniel saw in chapter 8 !! Look at the COMPARISON VERSES a interpreted by the Angel Gabriel.
Daniel 8:10 And it
waxed great,(1) even to the
host of heaven; and it cast down some of the h
ost and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them (2).
11
Yea, he magnified himself even to the prince of the host, and by him the daily sacrifice was taken away, and the place of the sanctuary was cast down (3).
24 And his
power shall be mighty,(1) but not by his own power:
and he shall destroy wonderfully, and shall prosper, and practise, and shall destroy the mighty and the holy people (2).
25 And through his
policy also he shall cause craft to prosper in his hand; and he shall magnify himself in his heart,
and by peace shall destroy many
3) he shall also stand up against the Prince of princes; but he shall be broken without hand.
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers
(10) The host of heaven.—Probably meaning the stars, as Jeremiah 33:22, but in a metaphorical sense indicating the people of Israel. (Comp. Exodus 7:4; Numbers 24:17.)
Benson Commentary Daniel 8:10-11.
And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven — By the host of heaven, seems to be here meant the Jewish priesthood, so called from their continual attendance on God’s service in the temple, as the angels do in heaven. The word צבא, here rendered host, is applied to the attendants in the sanctuary, Exodus 38:8;
Numbers 4:23. And it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground — Persons of principal dignity and high offices are often called stars in the Scriptures. In Isaiah 24:21, The host of the high ones that are on high, is explained by Vitringa of the Jewish rulers and people: see Daniel 12:3, and Revelation 1:20, where the angels, or governors of the church, are called stars.
Pulpit Commentary Verse 10.
And it waxed great, even to the host of heaven; and it cast down some of the host and of the stars to the ground, and stamped upon them. The reading of the LXX. is very different after the first clause, "And it was exalted to the stars of heaven, and it was shattered to the earth by the stars, and by them trampled down." The verb תַּסֵּל (tappayl) translated "cast down," has been read as if it had been תֻּפַּל (tooppal). So too the last verb has evidently been read וַירְמְסוּהוּ (vayyir'msoohoo) instead of וַתִּרְמְסֵם (vattir'msaym), due to the resemblance which there was between yod and tan in the older script. Theodotion differs hardly less from the Massoretic, "And it was magnified to the power of heaven, and it fell to the earth from the power of heaven and from the stars, and they trode them down." The verb translated "fell" is evidently read with a vocalization different from both the Massoretic and the LXX The sense of Theodotion is more in accordance with the Septuagint than with the Massoretic. The Peshitta and the Vulgate agree with the Massoretic. The question of which reading is to be preferred can scarcely be settled without regarding the meaning of the terms here used.
The crucial point is - What is the meaning of the "host of heaven"? The general consensus of interpreters is that THIS REFERS TO ISRAEL.
You mix and match verses without studying the context. Thus you are led to believe this is Satan when we can clearly see that Satan is not the BEAST in Rev. 20:10
Rev. 20:10 And the DEVIL (SATAN) that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the BEAST (A MAN) and the FALSE PROPHET (ANOTHER MAN) ARE (They are in Hell when Satan is cast into HELL), and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
