Garden of Thought E.273 Demons

It's taken 5 appearances from JJ Johnson of Southern Demonology for us to get to demons. But, here there be demons. The views of demons changed very much once Christianity spread versus before. So we start with Mesopotamia in Sumer, Babylon, Akka and the Levant. We visit and clarify on certain figures like Lilith, Lamasu, Pazzuzu, Peimon and Moloch. Is Beelzebub Ba'al or the reverse? Or neither? How did Zoroastrianism change everything? Some familiar numbers are discussed. Of course, we cover Satan, Lucifer, the Devil and other topics. Which writings are worth your time. Which aren't might surprise you. Are Djinn demons? Are Nephilim demons? Let's dive into the underworld and beyond to discuss actual demonology according to actual canonical texts and some adjacent writings.
