Lord of Spirits: Angels and Demons II - The Divine Council [Ep. 2]

Fr. Stephen De Young and Fr. Andrew Stephen Damick are back with their second episode focused on angels and demons in the Orthodox tradition, laying more critical groundwork for this program by talking about God's Divine Council, then looking at the various kinds of angels, and finishing up by talking about what demons are and why they’re still around.

Listening to this from Wales in the UK. So needed to hear this!❤🎉

Alright butt

[@colmwhateveryoulike3240]

Excellent. On a sidenote re the lack of Hebrew term for goddess, I'm no linguist but I once saw someone point out that "Yaweh" obeys the feminine structure even though it's listed in Strong's as a masculine noun.

[@elektrotehnik94]

If that is true, it might be extremely interesting for a lot of modern discussions of people regarding gender & God

[@colmwhateveryoulike3240]

@@elektrotehnik94 Yes well as a non expert I'd certainly be interested. God is genderless while encompassing everything He made genders to be so a lot of the language used to describe Him has limits.

[@ChristianAuditore14]

@@colmwhateveryoulike3240 God is a man

[@colmwhateveryoulike3240]

@@ChristianAuditore14 God became a man, yes, and He is our Father, but He has no gender except in the person of Christ. But that would have nothing to do with the gender of the word "Yaweh".
