Demon is a fictional evil existence with supernatural power in various religions, literary works, film and television works, and ACG works. It is usually a particularly powerful devil. The malice that emerges in people's hearts is the devil. When human beings encounter the threat of natural forces and the malice of themselves or others, they will naturally look for its source. These causes of malice have been concretized to form evil spirits, evil gods, and even finally the so-called demons. For human beings, demons are the product of superstition and do not exist, but "demon" and "harmful" things will bother people with their own malice. "Devil" is just a scapegoat created by superstitious people to take responsibility for their evil thoughts and evil deeds.

Basic concepts
Looking at the history of the East or the West, in the early Animism era of human culture, there was no demons. At most, there were only evil elves or so-called tricksters. When history begins to enter the era of polytheism, people believe that good and evil are always opposites. Compared with the good gods who represent justice, on the other hand, the evil gods who represent evil forces also appear, coexisting and counterbalances with each other. Religions originating from Persia and Babylon and other places advocate the dualism of good and evil, revealing the source of the two forces of light and darkness for mankind. For example, the existence of "evil elves" and "evil spirits", gods or human enemies, and ** human beings who bring diseases to people in shamanism can be called demons. However, the Christian religion that emphasizes that the only true God (including Catholicism) regards pagan gods as demons to deny the existence of their deity, and even Satan in the Old Testament is a faithful servant of God. In the era after the New Testament, the faith of the only true God has been established, and there is no need to degrade pagan gods, thus creating a fallen angel (Devil) who is the enemy of God. The apocalypse of this part of the New Testament clearly records that the devil is an angel who has fallen to the earth and dominates the dark forces. Stop human beings from communicating with God and do everything.
Internet Terms: Devil
The origin of the word devil belongs to the same root as "divinity" once, originating from the Indo-European divi (goddess) or deva (god); in Persian, this root is daeva; in ancient English, it is divell; and in ancient times Rome means "divus". That is to say, in ancient legends and legends, gods and demons are often confused. The words "divine" and "devilish" are interpreted as "beneficial" and "harmful" in Hebrew

The above is an excerpt from my work "Incomplete Examination of the Seven Kings of Hell"
Demon Level List Version 1
Satan: Satan is not a name, but a title, which refers to all demons or nobles in hell. The best representatives are the Seven Demon Kings of Hell and the Seven Kings of Hell, who are most qualified to be called Satan. Lucifa is the head of Satan and the ruler of the demon world.
Big Devil: The original people of hell, with bat membrane wings, horns, and muscles. They can't stand magic, but they are definitely powerful. They fight for the truth with blood on the battlefield and like to be bloodthirsty.
Fallen Angel: Their personalities are gloomy and scary because they are squeezed by both sides of light and darkness. Their wings are black and they are good at black magic, but they are not good at all for power attacks. With absolute strength, Lucifa is the representative of it.
Dark Elf: When Lucifa fell into a demon, Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden were also exiled to the human world. The elves were divided between the heaven and the demon world, and the light elves and dark elves were born. Some of them live in the human world, small and exquisite, and live on plants. The dark elves are part of the demon world, similar to fallen angels, but they are amiable and often obey the demons who have the ability to summon them to work for them. At the same time, the dark elves also keep their original five-element element magic.
Witches and witches: It turned out to be human beings. After signing a contract with Satan, they came to the demon world. They were good at poisoning and refining drugs, similar to evil mage.
Scythe demon: One image is a long horn on the head, from the hero invincible 3; the other image is a black robe, a skeleton face, holding a sickle, shaped like a god of death, stealing the soul for food. But the real death is the archangel Ulie and Shaliye (degenerated). The role of the god of death is to recycle the soul instead of stealing the soul to eat. Interest is to cut off the head of the enemy and feed on the souls of others. It is cruel but full of strength and wisdom.
Evil Mage: Good at fire attribute attack magic, there is only a sea of fire behind him
Ghost: The evil spirit from purgatory, the ghost, the ghost, and the rule of the evil queen Frosepina
Slave: He is the leader of the demon army. He has little strength but high wisdom. His appearance is often accompanied by a large number of skeleton soldiers and ghosts. In essence, he manipulates and leads lower-level magic soldiers than him.
Skull Soldier: It is their specialty to rush into the enemy array with a sharp blade, and the main new force of the demon army. There are many other miscellaneous soldiers, so I won't explain them one by one.
Tauren and Sheep Demon: Most of them are subordinates of big demons, good at playing axes and knives, and absolute power characters.
Hellhound: that is, the magic dog, the highest level is three heads, two heads, and the last one is ordinary, one. In Greek mythology, the hell three-headed dog guarding the gate of hell appeared.
Except for Satan and witches who can heal black magic, the demon's body cannot be reborn by itself after creation, so it can only improve its strength by devouring other creatures. Therefore, the demon army is always accompanied by an endless smell of blood.
Demon Level List Version II
The demons who live in the endless burning hell have mastered the essence of everything - chaos. Because everyone is the same kind, the rules of hell are no less than those of heaven:
1, Demon King, Head of Satan
2. Pierce-level magician
3. Edvorseray-level magician
4, the Mister-level magician
5. Angbershad-level magician
6. Chester-level magician
7. Hous-level magic soldier
8, Telvi-level magic soldier
Some famous demons
Lucifer
The most favored one among the "satan-level" demon kings. Milton's Paradise Lost means that because Lucifa refused to submit to Jesus, he led one-third of the angels to raise the anti-flag in the north of heaven. After three days of heavenly drama, Lucifer's rebels were finally defeated by Michael and fell into hell after nine mornings and evenings in chaos.
Since then, God created a new world and human beings. In order to revenge and seize the new world, Lucifa turned into a snake and sneaked into the Garden of Eden, lured Eve to eat the fruit of the forbidden tree of knowledge, and then she seduced Adam to commit the crime of disobeying the divine order, so Lucifa made God's new creation fall together as he wished, and for The demon gods opened the door to this new world, and since then, sin, illness and death have finally been on the ground. The most famous description of Lucifer in the Bible is actually a little obscure. Isaiah 14 verses 12-14, which describes the glory of Lucifer and does not nominate the Taoist surname, and this paragraph may be copied from the ancient myth of Canaan (part of the state of Israel). The New Testament, Luke, records that Jesus talked about seeing Satan fall into the deep pit of hell from heaven.
There is another saying that Lucifa is the god of ancient Rome, and the image is the god holding the torch. Lucifa was the first to be the name before the devil fell, and it is said to be the early godfather of the Middle Ages. This usage is so common that it is natural for Milton to use Lucifa when he wrote Paradise Lost. The real "dawn star" Lucifa should be a derivative legend of Middle Eastern folk myths. Similar legends are found in Canaan, Egypt and Persia. The Canaanites thought that the star of dawn was the god of Shaiem, and the star of dusk was the god of Shahem. Because of jealousy of the glorious sun god, Shahem rebelled, which ended in a fiasco and was thrown down from the sky.
Lucifa is the most dazzling devil "star". It is known as the star of dawn (i.e. Venus). Before the rebellion, he was the most beautiful and powerful of all the angels in heaven. With his brilliance and courage, no angel can compare with it. The author of Revelation records that its ancient dragons fall with one-third of the stars in the sky. Lucifa is about to be a dragon. Obviously, Lucifa has the status of a blazing angel. There are more outrageous legends, and there is also the saying that Lucifer's brother is Michael or even Christ.
It is listed as the most favored one among the "Saddan-level" demon kings. Dante's Divine Comedy and Milton's Paradise Lost all say that Lucifer led one-third of the angels in the sky to raise the anti-flag in the north of heaven because he refused to submit to the Holy Son Christ. After three days of heavenly drama, Lucifer's rebels were finally defeated by Christ and fell into hell after nine mornings and evenings in the chaos. After that, God created a new world and human beings. In order to revenge and seize the new world, Lucifer turned into a snake and sneaked into the Garden of Eden, lured Eve to eat the fruit of the forbidden tree of knowledge, and then she lured Adam to commit the crime of disobeying the divine order. Therefore, Lucifer degenerated the new creation of God as he wished, and opened the door to this new world for the demon gods. Since then, sin, disease and death have finally spread all over the ground. These are obviously based on Lucifer's name after rationalizing the ambiguous narrative of Satan in the Bible. The most famous description of the term Lucifer in the Bible is even more obscure. In verses 12 to 14 of Isaiah, it describes the glory of Lucifer without nomination of Taoism, and this paragraph may be copied from the ancient myth of Canaan (a part of the land of the founding of Israel). The New Testament Gospel of Luke records that Jesus said that he had seen Satan fall into the pit of hell from heaven.
In fact, Lucifer will be regarded as a demon's one. It should be a misunderstanding. He is a fallen angel, originally the Holy Spirit of Dawn (i.e. Light) in the non-Christian system. In the Middle Ages, there was a poem that said: ... Lucifer, howfallesttheefromtheheaven....( Lucifa, you descended from the sky like this). The fall mentioned here is 'down to the earth', not 'fallen', and heaven refers to the sky. But I want this paragraph to be the pseudo-personality of the light of dawn. However, under the secularization of medieval Christianity, believers mostly misinterpreted the Bible with poor intelligence. In addition, Lucifer was originally a pagan god, and people actually equated Lucifer with FallenAngel. Isaiah 14:12: "Bright star, son of the morning, why did you fall from heaven? .... I want to hold my throne above the stars..." This paragraph does not refer to Satan, but God ordered Jacob to write a poem about why the king of Babylon did evil. Perhaps because the narrative is too much like Satan, it is generally believed that it can be extended to Satan. The bright star is 'morningstar' in English, and light-bearing (light-born) is also a morning star, which is even confusing. In other words, Lucifer unfortunately had such an end in the same way as the biblical metaphor of Satan. It is also said that Lucifa was the god of ancient Rome, shaped like a god holding a torch. Lucifa was the first to be the name before the devil fell, which is said to be the godfather of the early Middle Ages. This usage is so common that when Milton wrote Paradise Lost, he naturally used Lucifer. The real 'star of dawn' Lucifa should be a derivative legend of Middle Eastern folk mythology. Similar legends are found in Canaan, Egypt and Persia. The Canaan people thought that the star of dawn was called the god of Shalem, and the star of dusk was called the god of Shahem. Because of jealousy of the glorious sun god, Shahem rebelled and ended in defeat and was thrown down from the sky. There are more outrageous legends, and there is also the saying that Lucifer's brother is Michael or even Christ.
Mammon
Mamen is the name of the devil that emerged among the Jews during the New and Old Testament times, which means 'wealth' in the ancient Syriac. In the New Testament, Jesus used an adjective to accuse the disciples of greed. Described as the evil god of wealth, he tempted people to kill each other for wealth. In Paradise Lost, the angels who were sent to hell discovered countless treasures under the command of Mamen to build their own temples
Asmodes: Asmodeus is the representative of the seven deadly sins '**. The demon is also one of the seventy-two pillar demon gods of King Solomon. This demon god may have been transmitted from Persia by Zoroastrianism. It was originally one of the six major subordinates of the Zoroastrian dark demon god Aliman, which is love. The demon god of desire. When he evolved into Judaism, he was called "the head of evil spirits" and "demon gods". Originally, he was not a very important demon in Christianity, and he appeared in the Tobit Book. He monopolized his favorite human woman and killed all the men who married that woman. Finally, he was forced out of his original form by the archangel Raphael. After escaping to Egypt, he was captured by the archangel Gabriel. It was not until medieval magic books that it was widely used as synonymous with demons, such as "Sanctioned Creation", "King of Hell", "Revenge Prince", **. Mr. Lu, wait.
In the original Zorzorian myth, he was a demon who could kill people, and hunted the souls of killing and livestock, leading the magicians of the world to wage war. According to Jewish legend, he has a human appearance, wings and a fiery red face. He is familiar with the knowledge of treasures in the earth and has the ability to transform. It is said that the ash burned from the liver and heart of the fish has an exorcism effect on him. Legend has it that the fallen angel was a wise angel (or a blazing angel), and after being introduced into the seventy-two-pillar demon god of King Solomon in the Middle Ages, it was described as a demon with three heads, the head of a man, a herd cow and a lamb. The dragon riding in hell has a waterbird-like foot and snake tail, can spit fire in his mouth, holds a poisonous gun, and knows astronomy and mathematics. His pleasure is to attract people to drink or gamble or trigger his desire to commit crimes.
Bar Saal
Since the launch of Diablo 2, Barr has become the most popular fallen god!
Bar is the greatest enemy of the Lord, one of the seventy-two pillars of King Solomon. The history of this god can be traced back to more than 1,400 BC. The Semites have a record of worship. He is the son of Shem (the son of Noah, the ancestor of the Semites). He is the highest god among the Semites, many The literature can find records of the Semitic worship of their glory.
Baal is sometimes called 'Bal' or 'Bae', which literally means "lord" in Sanphrase; the meaning of "owner" was the same as the sun or god at that time. Later, Baal, like God, represented 'God'. Baal is not a unique god name. Depending on the time and place, it represents different local gods. For example, Bel-Marduk, the god of Babylon, and BaalShamen, the Phoenician god.
This god is worshipped in Syria and Persia, and even exists in Canaan culture. He is the son of the supreme god Ile. His birthday and feast days are commemorated in the festival in Canaan. This god even worships the Phoenicians, and together with his wife Asarux, he represents the rich culture of the Phoenicians. The symbol is not only the sun god but also the god of agriculture. When the disaster comes, people think that it is the anger of the god Baal, and his animal etiquette even has to offer living people or children, so they give birth to the fire god Moloch. With the running east and west of the Phoenician navigation industry, Baal was introduced to the Mediterranean Sea during the Moses period, including the Midinite culture (the Arab family in the Midian region) and the Kingdom of Moab (the Semites at that time). It can be seen in the Old Testament that the ancient Jews also had this god. The worship may be because people everywhere worshipped too much at that time, and the ritual was too extravagant. They not only offered living people, but also built expensive temples, mobilized thousands of priests and labor, and even showed ** scenes. It makes some people feel disgusted and become the origin of the fallen god.
Leviathan: Leviathan means "crack". In the Old Testament Book of Job, the giant crocodile that God showed to Job in the whirlwind is also the image of a big whale and a big dolphin. It originated from the snake worship culture absorbed by the Israelis in Egypt.
When the ancients saw the snake peeling and leaving, they mistakenly thought that the snake was an immortal creature, so there was a custom of snake worship everywhere, and its deformation was like the worship of crocodiles and dragon gods. After Christianity, it was quoted as a synonym for demons, an anti-sacred force. Because of the cunning impression of snakes recorded in Genesis, Levi Anson was crowned with jealousy as one of the seven sins.
The original form of Leviaen has also appeared in other religions. Like the earliest Canaan culture, he was a sea snake named "Lotan" with seven heads, and was finally killed by Baal. He is also a demon in Ugatric's culture (Ugatric, a Gusemi clan in Syria). Chapter 100 of "Legend of Gold" also mentions the son of the Leviathan snake. The upper body is a dragon body, the lower body is a fish, the body is as big as a cow, and has sword-like teeth. He lives in the Rhone River in southern France and the nearby forests. He constantly eats the local residents and destroys the ship, and is finally recovered by the Holy Mary Martin with a cross.
Beelzubub: Beelzubub is the demon king mentioned by Christ Jesus in the New Testament, so he also has a high reputation in the battle for the name of Satan. In terms of the meaning of the word "Baai", it was called "god" by the Mesophthaya people in ancient times, and "Zebub" means prince, which may be the sun god in the Phoenix scriptures, but was later sacrificed as the 'king of dunghills' by the Canaan people. There are also traces of this demon king in Greek mythology, because Zeus, the father of all gods, is also known as the "fly evade". In the New Testament, the Jews called the ghost king. Baai-zebui is second only to Lucifer in Palestine, and people often regard him as the same person as Satan and Lucifer. Even when Jesus healed people, some people questioned whether he drove out ghosts by the ghost king Beelzebub. Legend has it that he was a member of the Holy 3 team in the blazing angel, who failed to escape in the Genesis War. In the Chronicle of Kings, the mention of the pagan god of Solomon worship refers to Baal, the sun god of Canaan. In the New Testament, the suppression of paganism was even more serious at that time, that is, the deity was transformed into the ghost king Beelzebu.
Abadon
'The Messenger of the Bottomless Pit', 'King of the Plague', 'The Dark Angel of Death', 'The Devil of Hell'. The Apocalypse records that the "fallen angel" will appear when the fifth angel blows the horn. As soon as the horn sounds, a star in the sky will come to the ground, open the door to the bottomless pit with dark smoke, and then the locust demon army led by Abaddon will come out and torture human beings for five months. Abadon is the Hebrew word abad - he can kill people - and the Greek translation is Apollyon, which is "the destroyer". The name Abaddon means destruction, destruction, ruins, tomb, underworld and death in Judaism.
In the ninth chapter of the Bible's Revelation, the demon of Abaton is mentioned: 'Abaton, the fallen angel who lives in the deepest part of hell, was released to make human beings more painful when the final judgment came: like a military horse ready to fight, with a golden crown on its head, a man's face and a woman's hair, with The woman's face, the lion's teeth, the scorpion's tail, wearing iron armor, the vibrating sound of her wings is like a fast-riding carriage, attacking human beings with poison needles. Although it will not be fatally injured, the living person will suffer the pain of death for five months.
After that, the devil's faith has a more detailed description of his appearance. It is said that he has wings like a sickle, like a man with green scales, a hooked nose, a bear-like foot, and a man with thick red hair grinning at his nose and spitting smoke and fire from time to time. And there are many people who have been hit and died because of his terrible appearance
Samael
There is Samair's English name is Satanal, which may be the same as the Satana that will be mentioned later. The Christian Bible does not record that it is the fallen angel who appeared in the Greek Balk Apocalypse. Its name has the meaning of "poisonous glorious messenger", and 'sam' is also called "poison" in Hebrew. In the book, it is alleged that the so-called knowledge tree is actually just a vine planted by Samair. God cursed the tree and forbids human beings to eat it. Adam ate fermented grapes, which was equivalent to drinking wine. The wine represented the blood of God and was therefore exiled by God. Therefore, the evil deeds brought about by alcohol include murder, adultery and adultery. **, false oath, theft, etc. Samair is equivalent to the true body of defrauding Adam to eat fruit in Genesis. After Lilith, the husband of the Witch of the Night (Lilith) also refers to Samar.
Samair was supposed to be a high-ranking angel, listed among the seven angels of creation. Later, he did not know why he fell. It is said that when he first ordered to create a group of angels to create people, only Samar succeeded, and because of his knowledge and achievements in creating people, God ordered him to take charge of human life and was called the 'angel of death'. It should be the same as the swager Azrael.
Samar was originally a blazing angel, a snake-shaped angel with minus 6 wings, and is known as the "angel of death" in the world; "Red Dragon" is famous. "Samaire holds a bile-painted gun at the tip, standing in front of the hell dog at night, spreading death as he walks."
Beliel
Also known as Beliar, Berial, Blil. It is an angel created by Milton, and may have been the first god of Jewish legends in Palestine. Literally, it is worthless, lowly and not worth mentioning. The 13th verses of the Old Testament-Deuteronomy are only used for 'worthless' adjectives. The New Testament of the Bible - 2 Corinthians 6:14 says that 'The identity of the Son of Darkness is opposed to Jesus Christ, which is an alias for Satan. In the "Battle of the Son of Light and the Son of Darkness" in the Dead Sea Book, it is said that the despicable is the deputy monarch of heaven, the leader of the Dark Legion and the first evil of the rebellion. The original name is Satanail, the most dangerous and ferocious of all fallen angels. He is conceited as the first angel to be born. One of his most successful counterattacks after the Fallen was to instigate the Kingdom of Judah to rebel against God again and worship its magic, so that he was abandoned by God and destroyed by Babylon. In the interpretation of Kabbalah Mystery, evil is constantly defined as a separate thing, because we can't accept the evil side of God, so we must flow evil out of the one body of God. Adam Kadmon (theprimordialman), the name of Kabbalah's perfect good spirit for the original people, is about to turn into a savior, but compared with the evil spirits of the separated class, they use the word AdamBeliyya'al'.
Bilie also occupies a seat in the famous King Solomon's 72-pillar Demon God. Bilie in the Magic Book is a beautiful but depraved angel, riding in a chariot of fire and sophistry words to provoke the relationship between relatives. Serve as a diplomatic envoy in hell.
Beelzubub
He is the ghost king mentioned by Christ Jesus in the New Testament, so he also has a high reputation in the battle for the name of Satan. Also known as Baal-Zebul, Baal-Zebub. In the meaning of 'Baal', it was the word used by Mesopotamia to call "god", and 'Zebub' means prince, which may be the sun god in the Finiji scriptures, but was later sacrificed to the "king of dunghills" by the Canaan people. There are also traces of this demon king in Greek mythology, because Zeus, the father of all gods, is also known as "fly evade". In the New Testament, the Jews called the ghost king. Baal-Zebul is second only to Lucifer in Palestine, and people often regard him as the same person as Satan and Lucifer. Even when Jesus was healing people, some people questioned whether he relied on the ghost king Beelzebu to drive out demons (Matthew 12:24, Mark 3:22, Luke 11:15). Among them, Jesus compared Beelzebu to driving ghosts as 'It is impossible for Satan to drive out Satan', which means that it is impossible for his family to drive away from his family. This is to show that it is based on divine power to cure diseases. It may be thought that the next generation will think that Bezebu here refers to Satan. Legend has it that the fallen angel said that he was a member of the Anthem team in the blazing angel and escaped in the Genesis War. In the Chronicle of Kings, the mention of the pagan god of Solomon worship refers to Baal, the sun god of Canaan. In the New Testament, the suppression of paganism was even more serious at that time, that is, the deity was transformed into the ghost king Beelzebu. Demonology positions him as the prime minister of hell, and there are also works that take Bezebub as the emperor of hell, setting that Satan is only the 'impy leader' who came to hell, hoping to seek the cooperation of Beelzebu to fight against the heavenly court. Paradise Lost depicts it as a thoughtful and dignified sage, second only to Lucifer among those who have fallen to heaven. Solomon's works are carved into huge calves or long-tailed rams, and the most famous form is probably giant flies.
Azazel
The leader of the fallen guard angel (grigori), the leader of the rebel angels in the lost paradise. The Hebrew word "the strong man of God" means that it is as powerful as a god and completely removes movement and wilderness. There are also names such as Azael, Asiel, Hazazel, Azel, etc. Before the fall, he had the status of a blazing angel or a wise angel, and was the commander of the guarding angel group. It is one of the angels who gave birth to 200 angels in the Noah era and the blazing angel Sang Yangsha and other human women. They were once defeated by the angel Raphael, which is included in the first to second verses of the eighth chapter of the Old Testament hypocrisy of Enoch. After Nephilim (the giant born of guarding angels and human beings) created disasters all over the country, As a commander, Azazle naturally took full responsibility. It is said that he was buried in a deep pit near Jerusalem by other archangels, in eternal claustrophobic, and thrown into the lake of fire on the last day of judgment. Another legend is that Azazel refused to lead the guard angels to serve human beings, saying, "How can the son of fire worship the son of earth?" As a result, he was punished. The representative of Azazel is the goat, and the sheep-headed demon mentioned in the Apocalypse may refer to him. Every year on September 10, the Jews make atonement day, that is, to kill the goat and worship the head to plead for sins. The monarch of hell in demonology, the ** of human beings, and the guardian of goats. In hell, he was appointed as a left-hander by Lucifer because of his original lofty status and power. According to the inheritance of Judaism, it has seven snake-shaped heads, fourteen faces and 12 wings. And ride on the snake.
Mastema
"Malicious" in Hebrew and "condemned" in Aramaic, also known as Mansemat. There are many stories of this fallen angel in the Old Testament hypocrisy book. Basically, he was the commander of the guarding angel with Azazle. At first, he came to the world with Biele and was punished for remembering the girl in the world. During Noah's flood, he ruled the evil spirits left on the earth and were exterminated by the flood. When God was about to throw the fallen angels into hell, Mostima pleaded with God, and God left one-tenth of the fallen angels in the world. After that, it brought many troubles to the world, such as **, denouncement, execution and other crimes. It is said that the magician who fought against Moses in Egypt at that time inherited his magic.
Leviathan
The wordmeans 'crack'. In the Old Testament Job, the giant crocodile shown by God to Job in the whirlwind is also a big whale or a big dolphin. It originated from the snake worship culture absorbed by the Israelis in Egypt. When the ancients saw the snake peeling away, they mistakenly thought that the snake was an immortal creature. Therefore, there was a custom of snake worship everywhere, and its transformation was like the worship of crocodiles and dragon gods. After Christianity, it was quoted as a synonym for demons, an anti-sacred force. Because of the cunning impression of snakes recorded in Genesis, Leviaansen was crowned with jealousy (Envy), one of the seven sins.
The prototype of Levi Anson has also appeared in other religions, such as the earliest Canaan culture. He was a sea snake called 'Lotan' and had seven heads, and was finally killed by Baal. He is also a demon in Ugatric's culture (Ugatric, a Gusemi clan in Syria). The Legend of Gold (Legendaaurea; 1470-1530) Chapter 100 also mentions the children of the Leviaansen snake. The upper body is a dragon body, the lower body is a fish, the body is as big as an ox, and has sword-like teeth. They live in the Rhone River in southern France and the nearby forests, constantly eating the local residents and breaking them. The bad boat was finally subdued by the saint Mardan with a cross.
The following text is extracted from Chapter 41, verse 12 of the Old Testament Job: "When it comes to the body of the crocodile (i.e. Levi Anson), its strength and beautiful skeleton, I can't keep silent. ... His teeth are terrible, and he praises the strong scales and nails, which are tight. Closed and tightly sealed. The scales are connected one by one, and even the air can't penetrate into it. They are all connected with each other, and the cementation cannot be separated. He sneezed and emitted light. His eyes were like morning light. Burning torches and flying sparks came out of his mouth. Smoke came out of his nostrils, like a boiling pot and a lit reed. His breath was on the coal, and flames came from his mouth. There was strength in his neck, and everything in front of him jumped with terror. His meat pieces are connected with each other, close to his body and can't be shaken. His heart is as strong as a stone, as strong as the millstone. His belly is like a sharp tile, and he is like a nail rake through the mud. He made the abyss boil like a pot, and made the sea like the ointment in the pot. The road he took then glowed, which made people think that the abyss was like white hair. There is no fear on the earth as he created. He despises all the great ones, and he reigns on the proud aquarium."
Asmodeus
Among the seven major sins, he is "**. Desire represents the devil. He is also one of the seventy-two pillar demons of King Solomon, and also known as Asmodeus, Aesma, Aschmedai, Asmoday, Asmodee, Asmadai, Asmodius, Asmodaios, Hasmoday, Chashm Odai, Azmonden. This demon god may have been transmitted from Persia by Lun religion. It was originally one of the six big hands of the dark demon god Ahriman: Aeshma-deva. The word itself means "rage". It's love. The demon god of desire. When he evolved into Judaism, he called him 'the head of the evil spirit' and 'the demon god'. Originally, he was not a very important demon in Christianity, and he appeared in the book of Tobit. He monopolized his favorite human woman and killed all the men who married that woman. Finally, he was forced out of his original shape by the archangel Raphael. After fleeing to Egypt, he was captured by the archangel Gabriel. It was not until medieval magic books that it was widely used as synonymous with demons, such as 'sancted creation', 'king of hell', 'revenge prince', '**. Mr. Lu, etc.
In the original myth of the religion, he was a demon who could kill people, hunted the souls of killing people and livestock, leading the magicians in the world to wage war. According to Jewish legend, he has a human appearance, wings and a fiery red face. He is familiar with the knowledge of treasures in the earth and has the ability to transform. It is said that the ash burned from the liver and heart of the fish has an exorcism effect on him. Legend has it that the fallen angel was a wise angel (or a blazing angel) before the fall, and after being introduced into King Solomon's seventy-two-pillar demon god in the Middle Ages, it was described as a demon with three heads, the head of a man, a herd cow and a lamb. The dragon riding in hell has a waterbird-like foot and snake tail, can spit fire in his mouth, holds a poisonous gun, and knows astronomy and mathematics. His pleasure is to attract people to drink and gamble or trigger his desire to commit crimes.
Douma
The Hebrew word 'silence' (Psalm), the place where the prophet Isaiah of Judah, was revealed in the Bible. The silent angel of death, the angel of death that Jewish occultists will see after death; also known as the Guardian of Egypt. The demon leader of the burning valley in the far suburbs of Jerusalem.
Balberith
The representative of the demon king who ordered a soul contract with someone. Originally a wise angel, the fallen queen became the chief priest of hell; the clerk.
Devil science
Demonology positions him as the prime minister of hell, and there are also works that take Bezebub as the emperor of hell, setting that Satan is just a "impy leader" who comes to hell, hoping to seek the cooperation of Bezebub to fight against the heavenly court. Paradise Lost depicts it as a thoughtful and dignified sage, second only to Lucifer among those who have fallen to heaven. Solomon's works are carved into huge calves or long-tailed rams, and the most famous form is probably giant flies.
The word devil has many agreed words in English, such as Demon; Devil; Familiar; Diablo; Each has its own etymology, and the word 'Satan' is actually a demon's name for today's people, which is more commonly believed in English. The argument of etymology is just like the Chinese 'demon' originally came from the Buddhist 'Sura', and the two words are already closely related and inseparable. The Hebrew word originally meant "enemy". In Paradise Lost, the archangel Raphael said to Adam, "Satan is his name now, and his name in heaven has been lost." In the early days of the Old Testament, Judaism did not have the concept of 'demon'. At that time, Satan was closer to the 'exper'. Meaning (or prosecutor; it can be seen in the second chapter of the Old Testament Job), a version was later derived that believed that Satan was an angel who strictly pursues the truth and could not tolerate acts against the truth.
From the narrative in the Apocalypse, it can be seen that the prophet has a conventional view of angels and demons through the development of religion in his works. The so-called demonology should also be compared with the angel group after the formal identification of angels (the author The understanding of the source of demon faith is still shallow, and it is expected that there will be more corrections of great virtues). This distinct dualism of good and evil was first the concept of Zoroastrianism, which prevailed in Persia. In the myth of Zoroastrianism, God's well-being is clearly divided into two camps of good and evil. This doctrine obviously affected later Judaism, and Satan will be a fallen angel, which is nothing more than the reason for falling into heaven. But it has become unknown in later generations? Of course, if this is a mythical story, his focus will be on 'Satan (sin) against God (justice) and destroyed'. As for the process, it can be prevaricate with a story that will achieve this moral goal. We know best than Satan, but he is the cunning snake of Adam and Eve. Although this story is often Listen, I still only see the chapter of the biblical hypocrisy "The Life of Adam and Eve". People's fear of snakes is innate, and so are the ancients. Therefore, snakes in mythology are often used to represent the unopen state of civilization. Satan's first image is covered with snakes, but the small snake makes the myth a little not wonderful. When the snake is exaggerated, it becomes a dragon, which is also the end of human fear.
After the anthropomorphic story spread, the humanoid Satan also appeared. Originally, he was a glorious angel with wings. Because of too much sympathy for human beings, he resisted from the position of God. Michael, the chief warrior of God, together with one-third of his followers. Kicked out of heaven, (Even the story tells that the original glory of Satan is not comparable to Michael. After Satan's failure, Michael was promoted from an archangel to a blazing angel.) Therefore, he can only go to hell to be his great demon king. In fact, in the Bible and Christian works, this god and Michael and others are the angels who serve on their behalf (?) There are countless, and more than half of the articles are named names for these fallen angels. Later, when scholars examine the evidence, they will naturally bring these angels to pair them with Satan, resulting in the seven most common demon kings who are most commonly known as Satan. One of the most famous is Lucifer, and the Lost Land is actually Lucifer. The other six demon kings, also known as Satan, are listed below: Abadon, Samael, Beelzubub, Azazel and Mastima.
From the introduction of the above seven fallen angels, it can be seen that most of them will be regarded as real Satan, which is just far-fetched. Anyway, there can be many fallen angels, but there can only be one head of Satan. There is still no conclusion about who is the real identity of Satan, because of Lucifer's name. If it really arises from misunderstanding, then he is just the protagonist in the novel. And the names of Abaton and Satan appear in the Apocalypse at the same time. If the Apocalypse comes from the same hand, it is difficult to say that the two of them are of the same identity. Again, he has an extraordinary identity in the New Testament of the Bible, and he also has a leading position in the battle between the Son of Light and the Son of Darkness in the Dead Sea Scroll. However, such a name is a little nonsensical, and there is no direct evidence that his name is Satan's correct name.
Beisib and Samar are angels for a good reason, but the incident that the first two fell to the guarding angels (details will be told later) is another systematic myth. It is too arrogant to put the two together, and in the end, only Samar is left. Personally, I prefer that Samar is Satan's original identity in heaven (if you think that Satan is really an angel). In the hypocrisy recorded in Samar, the fallen angel, the reason why it becomes a hypocrisy (the Old Testament chapter of unknown author or of unknown origin) is that he said another paragraph about human expulsion. The story of Eden, which conflicts with the Genesis we see now, was abandoned in a situation where it could only be one. If the author's mood is not like Milton just wants to correct Satan, Satan may be a derivative of Samar. In addition, Samair's post-narrative legends come one after another, which is relatively complete. We can not rule out this statement. However, now the identity of Satan is too controversial. If you really want to make a conclusion about the secular cognition, it can be said that it is better to leave the space of fantasy to everyone.
It is said that there is also a demon here: Satanael/Satanial, who was introduced by the Bogomill sect that emerged in Macedonia (present-day Bulgaria and Yugoslavia) in the first half of the 10th century. The book of Enoch also mentioned the name, but it means that he is one of the guardian angels. It should not be the same person, but it is sure that the file about this demon is to inherit Samar's identity and amplified. The Bogomil sect denies the organization of the church, divides the world into two sides of absolute good and absolute evil, and holds a very ascetic extreme ideas. The trinity in their eyes refers to God the Father, the Son God and the devil; God the Father is the dominion of everything, and the Son God holds the dominion of heaven, and the devil holds all the domination on earth. Right. It is said that Satan and Christ are the twins of God. Satan became the most noble angel of angels and sat on the right seat of God. Because he wanted to further obtain an equal status with God, he was expelled from heaven together with one-third of the angels who followed him. Since you can't be the god of heaven, you want to create your own world to be the god of this new world. So he created the material world and created Adam and Eve together with the Armistice Commitment System of God the Father. God allowed him to rule this world. But when Eve was born, Satanye turned into a snake and Xia Yu gave birth to Cain. After that, Cain would kill his brother, and all the sins came from Satane.
This is very similar to the Jewish mystical sect. In short, it is to completely abandon all material pursuits and seek to return to the Supreme God. Jewish Mysticism believes that the Supreme God seals the genit-light of the Supreme God in the human body. If you want to defeat the Creator (demon), you must find this light. And Satan certainly has the status of a blazing angel in this story. After the 16th century, Satan was regarded by Christianity as the embodiment of the seven sins: the pride of Lucifer, the greed of Mammon, the anger of Satan, the desire of Asmodeus, the overeating of Beelzebub, the jealousy of Leviathan, and Baalpi. The laziness of Belphegor. The so-called seven sins of Christian theology and the so-called seven virtues are relative virtues, and the original proposer should be Jesus. The above-mentioned demons are not the incarnations of Satan, but the representative demons of the sins of Satan. The funny thing is that these seven evil places overlap with some of the previous demon kings, and other demons that are not among the previously mentioned great demons are actually implied by this method that they have the nature of Satan. Because the demon image is used to represent these seven evil thoughts. It was proposed by Peter Binsfield in 1589. Previously, it was only represented by seven ferocious animals. These demons spread to folk customs and are often used as summoning objects for magic books. Sometimes it is used as the embodiment of Satan.
In fact, most of the above monsters are scattered, but they also have a considerable fate, that is, the garbage cleared after Christianity purifies the world has been personified into demons and fallen angels by some intentional personnel entities that have collected this strange state. In this way, the world under hell is more sound than the purified heaven. After the spread of demonology, in the field of hell, there is land (in hell), there is power (Sataan), and there are people (more fallen angels), which is already like a country. The Pandaemonium, which we often hear, is said to be the palace of Satan (or Lucifer). This demon's organization has also become as organized as a human society, class, and even able to organize Satan's exclusive demon army (sometimes when I think about people's imagination, I don't know if it's too much). Poor or childish?), There is also a complete description of the structure of hell in the Hell chapter of the Divine Comedy. If you are interested, you can go and have a look. Seven Lords of Hell
There is also a roster of the seven kings of hell. The source is unknown. They regard themselves as Lucifer's courtiers and have a very high power and status in hell, and their names may also be taken from the metaphorical words for bad things in the Bible:
Baberet Balberith
Douma
Sullied Suriel
Mephostophilis
LucifugeRophocale
Melilim
