Re: Enoch and the Flat Earth, Fallen Angels and Nephilim

CHAPTER LXXIV.
1. And I saw another course, a law for her, (and) how according
to that law she performs her monthly revolution. 2. And all
these Uriel, the holy angel who is the leader of them all,
showed to me, and
p. 100
their positions, and I wrote down their positions as he showed
them to me, and I wrote down their months as they were, and the
appearance of their lights till fifteen days were accomplished.
3. In single seventh parts she accomplishes all her light in the
east, and in single seventh parts accomplishes all her darkness
in the west. 4. And in certain months she alters her settings,
and in certain months she pursues her own peculiar course.
5. In two months the moon sets with the sun: in those two middle
portals the third and the fourth. 6. She goes forth for seven
days, and turns about and returns again through the portal where
the sun rises, and accomplishes all her light: and she recedes
from the sun, and in eight days enters the sixth portal from
which the sun goes forth.
7. And when the sun goes forth from the fourth portal she goes
forth seven days, until she goes forth from the fifth and turns
back again in seven days into the fourth portal and accomplishes
all her light: and she recedes and enters into the first portal
in eight days.
8. And she returns again in seven days into the fourth portal
from which the sun goes forth. 9. Thus I saw their position--how
the moons rose and the sun set in those days.
10. And if five years are added together the sun has an overplus
of thirty days, and all the days which accrue to it for one of
those five years, when they are full, amount to 364 days. 11.
And the overplus of the sun and of the stars amounts to six
days: in 5 years 6 days every year come to 30 days: and the moon
falls behind the sun and stars to the number of 30 days.
12. And the sun and the stars bring in all the years exactly, so
that they do not advance or delay their position by a single day
unto eternity; but complete the years with perfect justice in
364 days.
13. In 3 years there are 1092 days, and in 5 years 1820 days, so
that in 8 years there are 2912 days. 14. For the moon alone the
days amount in 3 years to 1062 days, and in 5 years she falls 50
days behind: [i.e. to the sum (of 1770) there is
p. 101
to be added (1000 and) 62 days.] 15. And in 5 years there are
1770 days, so that for the moon the days in 8 years amount to
2832 days. 16. [For in 8 years she falls behind to the amount of
80 days], all the days she falls behind in 8 years are 80.
17. And the year is accurately completed in conformity with
their world-stations and the stations of the sun, which rise
from the portals through which it (the sun) rises and sets 30
days.
CHAPTER LXXV.
1. And the leaders of the heads of the thousands, who are placed
over the whole creation and over all the stars, have also to do
with the four intercalary days, being inseparable from their
office, according to the reckoning of the year, and these render
service on the four days which are not reckoned in the reckoning
of the year.
2. And owing to them men go wrong therein, for those luminaries
truly render service on the world-stations, one in the first
portal, one in the third portal of the heaven, one in the fourth
portal, and one in the sixth portal, and the exactness of the
year is accomplished through its separate three hundred and
sixty-four stations.
3. For the signs and the times and the years and the days the
angel Uriel showed to me, whom the Lord of glory hath set for
ever over all the luminaries of the heaven, in the heaven and in
the world, that they should rule on the face of the heaven and
be seen on the earth, and be leaders for the day and the night,
i.e. the sun, moon, and stars, and all the ministering creatures
which make their revolution in all the chariots of the heaven.
4. In like manner twelve doors Uriel showed me, open in the
circumference of the sun's chariot in the heaven, through which
the rays of the sun break forth: and from them is warmth
diffused over the earth, when they are opened at their appointed
seasons.
5. [And for the winds and the spirit of the dew† when they are
opened, standing open in the heavens at the ends.] 6. As for the
twelve portals in the heaven, at the ends of the earth, out of
which go forth the sun, moon, and stars, and all
p. 102
the works of heaven in the east and in the west. 7. There are
many windows open to the left and right of them, and one window
at its (appointed) season produces warmth, corresponding (as
these do) to those doors from which the stars come forth
according as He has commanded them, and wherein they set
corresponding to their number.
8. And I saw chariots in the heaven, running in the world, above
those portals in which revolve the stars that never set. 9. And
one is larger than all the rest, and it is that that makes its
course through the entire world.

LXXVI. The Twelve Windows and their Portals.
CHAPTER LXXVI.
1 And at the ends of the earth I saw twelve portals open to all
the quarters (of the heaven), from which the winds go forth and
blow over the earth. 2. Three of them are open on the face (i.e.
the east) of the heavens, and three in the west, and three on
the right (i.e. the south) of the heaven, and three on the left
(i.e. the north).
3. And the three first are those of the east, and three are of
†the north, and three [after those on the left] of the south†,
and three of the west. 4. Through four of these come winds of
blessing and prosperity, and from those eight come hurtful
winds: when they are sent, they bring destruction on all the
earth and on the water upon it, and on all who dwell thereon,
and on everything which is in the water and on the land.
5. And the first wind from those portals, called the east wind,
comes forth through the first portal which is in the east,
inclining towards the south: from it come forth desolation,
drought, heat, and destruction. 6. And through the second portal
in the middle comes what is fitting, and from it there come rain
and fruitfulness and prosperity and dew; and through the third
portal which lies toward the north come cold and drought.
7. And after these come forth the south winds through three
portals: through the first portal of
p. 103
them inclining to the east comes forth a hot wind. 8. And
through the middle portal next to it there come forth fragrant
smells, and dew and rain, and prosperity and health. 9. And
through the third portal lying to the west come forth dew and
rain, locusts and desolation.
10. And after these the north winds: from the seventh portal in
the east come dew and rain, locusts and desolation. 11. And from
the middle portal come in a direct direction health and rain and
dew and prosperity; and through the third portal in the west
come cloud and hoar-frost, and snow and rain, and dew and
locusts.
12. And after these [four] are the west winds: through the first
portal adjoining the north come forth dew and hoar-frost, and
cold and snow and frost. And from the middle portal come forth
dew and rain, and prosperity and blessing; and through the last
portal which adjoins the south come forth drought and
desolation, and burning and destruction.
14. And the twelve portals of the four quarters of the heaven
are therewith completed, and all their laws and all their
plagues and all their benefactions have I shown to thee, my son
Methuselah.
LXXVII. The Four Quarters of the World: the Seven Mountains, the
Seven Rivers, &c.
CHAPTER LXXVII.
1. And the first quarter is called the east, because it is the
first: and the second, the south, because the Most High will
descend there, yea, there in quite a special sense will He who
is blessed for ever descend.
2. And the west quarter is named the diminished, because there
all the luminaries of the heaven wane and go down.
3. And the fourth quarter, named the north, is divided into
three parts: the first of them is for the dwelling of men: and
the second contains seas of water, and the abysses and forests
and rivers, and darkness and clouds; and the third part contains
the garden of righteousness.
p. 104
4. I saw seven high mountains, higher than all the mountains
which are on the earth: and thence comes forth hoar-frost, and
days, seasons, and years pass away.
5. I saw seven rivers on the earth larger than all the rivers:
one of them coming from the west pours its waters into the Great
Sea. 6. And these two come from the north to the sea and pour
their waters into the Erythraean Sea in the east.
7. And the remaining four come forth on the side of the north to
their own sea, 〈two of them〉 to the Erythraean
Sea, and two into the Great Sea and discharge themselves there
[and some say: into the desert].
8. Seven great islands I saw in the sea and in the mainland: two
in the mainland and five in the Great Sea.

LXXVIII. The Sun and Moon: the Waxing and Waning of the Moon.
CHAPTER LXXVII.
1. And the names of the sun are the following: the first
Orjârês, and the second Tômâs. 2. And the moon has four names:
the first name is Asônjâ, the second Eblâ, the third Benâsê, and
the fourth Erâe.
3. These are the two great luminaries: their circumference is
like the circumference of the heaven, and the size of the
circumference of both is alike. 4. In the circumference of the
sun there are seven portions of light which are added to it more
than to the moon, and in definite measures it is s transferred
till the seventh portion of the sun is exhausted.
5. And they set and enter the portals of the west, and make
their revolution by the north, and come forth through the
eastern portals on the face of the heaven. 6. And when the moon
rises one-fourteenth part appears in the heaven: ⌈the
light becomes full in her⌉: on the fourteenth day she
accomplishes her light.
7. And fifteen parts of light are transferred to her till the
fifteenth day (when) her light is accomplished, according to the
sign of the year, and she becomes fifteen
p. 105
parts, and the moon grows by (the addition of) fourteenth parts.
8. And in her waning (the moon) decreases on the first day to
fourteen parts of her light, on the second to thirteen parts of
light, on the third to twelve, on the fourth to eleven, on the
fifth to ten, on the sixth to nine, on the seventh to eight, on
the eighth to seven, on the ninth to six, on the tenth to five,
on the eleventh to four, on the twelfth to three, on the
thirteenth to two, on the fourteenth to the half of a seventh,
and all her remaining light disappears wholly on the fifteenth.
9. And in certain months the month has twenty-nine days and once
twenty-eight. 10. And Uriel showed me another law: when light is
transferred to the moon, and on which side it is transferred to
her by the sun. 11. During all the period during which the moon
is growing in her light, she is transferring it to herself when
opposite to the sun during fourteen days [her light is
accomplished in the heaven], and when she is illumined
throughout, her light is accomplished full in the heaven.
12. And on the first day she is called the new moon, for on that
day the light rises upon her. 13. She becomes full moon exactly
on the day when the sun sets in the west, and from the east she
rises at night, and the moon shines the whole night through till
the sun rises over against her and the moon is seen over against
the sun. 1
4. On the side whence the light of the moon comes forth, there
again she wanes till all the light vanishes and all the days of
the month are at an end, and her circumference is empty, void of
light. 15. And three months she makes of thirty days, and at her
time she makes three months of twenty-nine days each, in which
she accomplishes her waning in the first period of time, and in
the first portal for one hundred and seventy-seven days.
16. And in the time of her going out she appears for three
months (of) thirty days each, and for three months she appears
(of) twenty-nine each. 17. At night she appears like a man for
twenty days each time, and by day she appears like
p. 106
the heaven, and there is nothing else in her save her light.
+
LXXIX-LXXX. 1. Recapitulation of several of the Laws.
CHAPTER LXXIX.
1. And now, my son, I have shown thee everything, and the law of
all the stars of the heaven is completed. 2. And he showed me
all the laws of these for every day, and for every season of
bearing rule, and for every year, and for its going forth, and
for the order prescribed to it every month and every week:
3. And the waning of the moon which takes place in the sixth
portal: for in this sixth portal her light is accomplished, and
after that there is the beginning of the waning: 4. 〈And
the waning〉which takes place in the first portal in its
season, till one hundred and seventy-seven days are
accomplished: reckoned according to weeks, twenty-five (weeks)
and two days.
5. She falls behind the sun and the order of the stars exactly
five days in the course of one period, and when this place which
thou seest has been traversed. 6. Such is the picture and sketch
of every luminary which Uriel the archangel, who is their
leader, showed unto me.

CHAPTER LXXX.
1. And in those days the angel Uriel answered and said to me:
'Behold, I have shown thee everything, Enoch, and I have
revealed everything to thee that thou shouldst see this sun and
this moon, and the leaders of the stars of the heaven and all
those who turn them, their tasks and times and departures.
LXXX. 2-8. Perversion of Nature and the heavenly Bodies owning
to the Sin of Men.
2. And in the days of the sinners the years shall be shortened,
And their seed shall be tardy on their lands and fields,
And all things on the earth shall alter, p. 107
And shall not appear in their time:
And the rain shall be kept back
And the heaven shall withhold (it).
3. And in those times the fruits of the earth shall be backward,
And shall not grow in their time,
And the fruits of the trees shall be withheld in their time.
4. And the moon shall alter her order,
And not appear at her time.
5. [And in those days the sun shall be seen and he shall journey
in the evening †on the extremity of the great chariot† in the
west]
And shall shine more brightly than accords with the order of
light.
6. And many chiefs of the stars shall transgress the order
(prescribed).
And these shall alter their orbits and tasks,
And not appear at the seasons prescribed to them.
7. And the whole order of the stars shall be concealed from the
sinners,
And the thoughts of those on the earth shall err concerning
them,
[And they shall be altered from all their ways],
Yea, they shall err and take them to be gods.
8. And evil shall be multiplied upon them,
And punishment shall come upon them So as to destroy all.'
LXXXI. The Heavenly Tablets and the Mission of Enoch.
CHAPTER LXXXI.
1. And he said unto me:
'Observe, Enoch, these heavenly tablets,
And read what is written thereon,
And mark every individual fact.'
p. 108
2 And I observed the heavenly tablets, and read everything which
was written (thereon) and understood everything, and read the
book of all the deeds of mankind, and of all the children of
flesh that shall be upon the earth to the remotest generations.
3. And forthwith I blessed the great Lord the King of glory for
ever, in that He has made all the works of the world,
And I extolled the Lord because of His patience,
And blessed Him because of the children of men.
4. And after that I said:
'Blessed is the man who dies in righteousness and goodness,
Concerning whom there is no book of unrighteousness written,
And against whom no day of judgement shall be found.'
5. And those seven holy ones brought me and placed me on the
earth before the door of my house, and said to me: 'Declare
everything to thy son Methuselah, and show to all thy children
that no flesh is righteous in the sight of the Lord, for He is
their Creator. 6. One year we will leave thee with thy son, till
thou givest thy (last) commands, that thou mayest teach thy
children and record (it) for them, and testify to all thy
children; and in the second year they shall take thee from their
midst.
7. Let thy heart be strong,
For the good shall announce righteousness to the good;
The righteous with the righteous shall rejoice,
And shall offer congratulation to one another.
8. But the sinners shall die with the sinners,
And the apostate go down with the apostate.
9. And those who practice righteousness shall die on account of
the deeds of men,
And be taken away on account of the doings of the godless.'
p. 109
10. And in those days they ceased to speak to me, and I came to
my people, blessing the Lord of the world.

LXXXII. Charge given to Enoch: the four Intercalary Days: the
Stars which lead the Seasons and the Months.
CHAPTER LXXXII.
1. And now, my son Methuselah, all these things I am recounting
to thee and writing down for thee, and I have revealed to thee
everything, and given thee books concerning all these: so
preserve, my son Methuselah, the books from thy father's hand,
and (see) that thou deliver them to the generations of the
world.
2. I have given Wisdom to thee and to thy children,
[And thy children that shall be to thee],
That they may give it to their children for generations,
This wisdom (namely) that passeth their thought.
3. And those who understand it shall not sleep,
But shall listen with the ear that they may learn this wisdom,
And it shall please those that eat thereof better than good
food.
4. Blessed are all the righteous, blessed are all those who walk
in the way of righteousness and sin not as the sinners, in the
reckoning of all their days in which the sun traverses the
heaven, entering into and departing from the portals for thirty
days with the heads of thousands of the order of the stars,
together with the four which are intercalated which divide the
four portions of the year, which lead them and enter with them
four days.
5. Owing to them men shall be at fault and not reckon them in
the whole reckoning of the year: yea, men shall be at fault, and
not recognize them accurately. 6. For they belong to the
reckoning of the year and are truly recorded (thereon) for ever,
one in the first portal and one in the third, and
p. 110
one in the fourth and one in the sixth, and the year is
completed in three hundred and sixty-four days.
7. And the account thereof is accurate and the recorded
reckoning thereof exact; for the luminaries, and months and
festivals, and years and days, has Uriel shown and revealed to
me, to whom the Lord of the whole creation of the world hath
subjected the host of heaven.
8. And he has power over night and day in the heaven to cause
the light to give light to men--sun, moon, and stars, and all
the powers of the heaven which revolve in their circular
chariots.
9. And these are the orders of the stars, which set in their
places, and in their seasons and festivals and months.
10. And these are the names of those who lead them, who watch
that they enter at their times, in their orders, in their
seasons, in their months, in their periods of dominion, and in
their positions.
11. Their four leaders who divide the four parts of the year
enter first; and after them the twelve leaders of the orders who
divide the months; and for the three hundred and sixty (days)
there are heads over thousands who divide the days; and for the
four intercalary days there are the leaders which sunder the
four parts of the year.
12. And these heads over thousands are intercalated between
leader and leader, each behind a station, but their leaders make
the division. And these are the names of the leaders who divide
the four parts of the year which are ordained: Mîlkî’êl,
Hel’emmêlêk, and Mêl’êjal, and Nârêl.
13. And the names of those who lead them: Adnâr’êl, and
Îjâsûsa’êl, and ’Elômê’êl--these three follow the leaders of the
orders, and there is one that follows the three leaders of the
orders which follow those leaders of stations that divide the
four parts of the year.
15. In the beginning of the year Melkejâl rises first and rules,
who is named †Tam’âinî† and sun, and all the days of his
dominion whilst he bears rule are ninety-one days. 16. And these
are the signs of the days which are to be seen on earth in the
days of
p. 111
his dominion: sweat, and heat, and calms; and all the trees bear
fruit, and leaves are produced on all the trees, and the harvest
of wheat, and the rose-flowers, and all the flowers which come
forth in the field, but the trees of the winter season become
withered.
17. And these are the names of the leaders which are under them:
Berka’êl, Zêlebs’êl, and another who is added a head of a
thousand, called Hîlûjâsĕph: and the days of the dominion
of this (leader) are at an end.
18. The next leader after him is Hêl’emmêlêk, whom one names the
shining sun, and all the days of his light are ninety-one days.
19. And these are the signs of (his) days on the earth: glowing
heat and dryness, and the trees ripen their fruits and produce
all their fruits ripe and ready, and the sheep pair and become
pregnant, and all the fruits of the earth are gathered in, and
everything that is in the fields, and the winepress: these
things take place in the days of his dominion.
20. These are the names, and the orders, and the leaders of
those heads of thousands: Gîdâ’îjal, Kê’êl, and Hê’êl, and the
name of the head of a thousand which is added to them, Asfâ’êl’:
and the days of his dominion are at an end.

The Book of Enoch, written during the second century B.C.E., is
one of the most important non-canonical apocryphal works, and
probably had a huge influence on early Christian, particularly
Gnostic, beliefs. Filled with hallucinatory visions of heaven
and hell, angels and devils, Enoch introduced concepts such as
fallen angels, the appearance of a Messiah, Resurrection, a
Final Judgement, and a Heavenly Kingdom on Earth. Interspersed
with this material are quasi-scientific digressions on
calendrical systems, geography, cosmology, astronomy, and
meteorology.
This etext has been prepared specially for sacred-texts, and is
a great improvement over other versions on the Internet, with
the introduction, correct verse numbering, page numbers from the
1917 edition, and intact critical apparatus.

The Book of Enoch, written during the second century B.C.E., is
one of the most important non-canonical apocryphal works, and
probably had a huge influence on early Christian, particularly
Gnostic, beliefs. Filled with hallucinatory visions of heaven
and hell, angels and devils, Enoch introduced concepts such as
fallen angels, the appearance of a Messiah, Resurrection, a
Final Judgement, and a Heavenly Kingdom on Earth. Interspersed
with this material are quasi-scientific digressions on
calendrical systems, geography, cosmology, astronomy, and
meteorology.
This etext has been prepared specially for sacred-texts, and is
a great improvement over other versions on the Internet, with
the introduction, correct verse numbering, page numbers from the
1917 edition, and intact critical apparatus.

The Truth About Angels and Demons Is Staring Us in the Face
Michael Heiser’s books cut through the myths and legends
surrounding these supernatural beings.
M. Night Shyamalan’s film The Sixth Sense catapulted the
director to overnight stardom. Most people who saw the film will
never forget the shock they felt when the trick ending was
revealed and they were forced to reassess the meaning of each
and every scene they had just witnessed. In the flash of an eye,
it became a very different movie, far richer and far stranger
than they had first imagined.
If I may leap from the secular to the sacred, from pop culture
to inspired Scripture, I suppose the two travelers on the road
to Emmaus must have felt the same way when Jesus opened up the
Old Testament to them (Luke 24:27). So, they must have thought
to themselves, that’s what Moses really meant—and David and
Isaiah and Ezekiel and Daniel! How could we have missed it when
the truth was staring us in the face all these years?
It is as if the viewers of the film and the travelers to Emmaus
were trying to put together a thousand-piece puzzle without
having been shown a picture of what the finished puzzle looks
like. Only when the director of the film, or the gospel,
revealed that picture were they able to use it as a key for
assembling the pieces into a coherent image and narrative. I
felt something of that sense of revelation when I happened upon
Michael Heiser’s book The Unseen Realm: Recovering the
Supernatural Worldview of the Bible, first published in 2015.
Heiser, who holds a PhD in Hebrew Bible and Semitic languages
and is the executive director of the School of Theology at
Celebration Church in Jacksonville, Florida, has devoted his
career to expanding the horizons of Bible-believing Christians
who have never known what to make of Scripture’s frequent
references to “gods” and “sons of God.” Using Psalm 82 as his
starting point, Heiser argues that God chose to work through a
divine council of supernatural beings whom he created and over
whom he holds full sovereignty. He intended for his council to
also include human representatives who would meet at Eden,
itself a nexus point between heaven and earth.
But man, tempted by a rebellious member of the council, sinned
and lost Eden. Things devolved further when a series of
supernatural beings assumed bodies and mated with human women to
produce a race of giants, the Nephilim (Gen. 6:1–4). The evil of
this race furthered the wickedness of men and led to the Flood,
but even that event did not put an end to human and divine
wickedness. The campaign to build the Tower of Babel showed that
evil and rebellion were still rampant among men and gods alike.
As a result of that rebellion, God portioned the land and turned
over those portions to the control of supernatural members of
his council (Deut. 32:8–9), leaving Israel for himself as a
remaining plot of holy land to be inhabited by the descendants
of Abraham, whom he called for that purpose. But the
supernatural guardians of those portions turned, one by one, to
evil, causing God to judge and curse them, as recorded in Psalm
82. Worse yet, the descendants of Abraham turned to evil and
began to worship the rebellious gods of the other nations,
causing God to exile them to Babylon, the very land where the
Tower of Babel had been built.
Angelic Ministry
Since the publication of The Unseen Realm, Heiser has continued
to flesh out the supernatural worldview of the Bible with two
recent books on the nature, origin, and functions of angels and
demons. Cutting through the myths and legends that have
surrounded these divine beings, Heiser allows us to see them
through the eyes of the writers of the Old and New Testament as
well as the Jewish and Greek writers who lived in the
intertestamental period.
Although Heiser presents his case and offers his conclusions in
an accessible manner, his points are backed up by a mountain of
textual, historical, anthropological, and linguistic research.
Indeed, one of Heiser’s great strengths is taking findings from
esoteric, highly academic papers and helping ordinary,
non-specialist readers understand their relevance for
interpreting the Bible and seeing the overall shape of God’s
work in human history.
In his 2018 book Angels: What the Bible Really Says About God’s
Heavenly Host, Heiser explains that message-bearing (what the
word angel means in Greek) marks only one of the many functions
performed by the supernatural, non-physical beings that God
created. Angels also act as ministers of God’s will, watchers
who are ever vigilant, soldiers in God’s heavenly host (or
army), interpreters to men of God’s messages, protectors of
God’s holiness, executors of God’s divine judgment, and members
of God’s council who participate in and bear witness to God’s
sovereign decisions and decrees.
Heiser presents a dynamic picture of God holding session with
his divine council, but he also lays down biblical limits for
angelic authority and advice. One of the best examples in
Scripture of God convening his council is 1 Kings 22:19–23, when
he asks how the wicked king Ahab might be defeated. After
performing a close analysis on the passage, Heiser concludes
that the “text presents us with a clear instance where God has
sovereignly decided to act but allows his lesser, intelligent
servants to participate in how his decision is carried out. God
wasn’t searching for ideas, as though he couldn’t conceive of a
plan. He allowed those who serve him the latitude to propose
options.”
In his overview of the study of angels between the period of
Exile and the ministry of Christ, Heiser marshals his prodigious
research to dispel two popular myths. First, he demonstrates
that Second Temple Jewish writers, including the translators of
the Septuagint (the Greek Old Testament) and the Qumran
community that wrote the Dead Sea Scrolls, did not eliminate the
language of angels as sons of god out of a fear of promoting
polytheism. Their writing shows quite the opposite: a clear
understanding that Yahweh is the only God but that he is
surrounded by a divine council of supernatural beings who are
often called gods. Second, he shows that the Dead Sea Scrolls do
not embody a dualistic vision of good and evil as equal and
opposite forces, but of angelic warfare between beings created
by the omnipotent and always-benevolent Yahweh.
Whereas the Old Testament speaks of the angel of the Lord
carrying out the judgment of God, the New Testament, written
after God became man, no longer mentions the Angel of the
Lord—because judgment has been “entrusted” to Christ (John
5:22). Angels are described as exacting God’s vengeance in the
apocalyptic book of Revelation, but in the rest of the New
Testament, they are usually seen as ministering to believers.
Some have argued that Christ’s death on the cross redeemed
fallen angels as well as fallen human beings, Heiser refutes
this theory, making it clear that “the sacrifice of Jesus does
not help angels. It helps believers—the children of Abraham by
faith.”
Demonic Rebellion
In his most recent book, Demons: What the Bible Really Says
About the Powers of Darkness, Heiser takes up the story of those
fallen angels whom even the death of Christ could not redeem.
The book dispels the myth, popularized in John Milton’s classic
poem Paradise Lost, of a single rebellion against God led by
Satan before the world was created, a myth that has little
actual scriptural support. Instead, Heiser defines demons, or
evil spirits, as “members of God’s heavenly host who have chosen
to rebel against his will.” Rather than taking place once, as it
does in Paradise Lost, this rebellion (as noted earlier in this
review) took different forms at different times: the serpent in
Eden, the sons of God who slept with the daughters of men, and
the disobedient sons of god Yahweh put in charge of the nations
after the Tower of Babel.
Still, despite their rebellion, the evil spirits continued to be
spirits living in a spiritual realm. As Heiser observes, “Their
rebellion did not mean they were no longer part of that world or
that they became something other than what they were. They are
still spiritual beings. Rather, rebellion affected (and still
characterizes) their disposition toward, and relationship to,
Yahweh.” As for the demons described in the Old Testament,
Heiser explains that some are “associated with the realm of the
dead and its inhabitants,” some are linked to specific
geographical locations opposed to God’s rule, and some are
“preternatural creatures associated with idolatry and unholy
ground.”
Regarding the third kind, Heiser notes that, while in theory any
ground “not occupied by the presence of God” could be considered
unholy, all places outside Jerusalem were not therefore places
of spiritual danger. Nevertheless, Heiser writes, “forbidding,
uninhabitable places in lands associated with other gods were
unholy in the sense of sinister and evil. This was especially
true of the desert wilderness, whether literal or used
metaphorically to describe places ravaged by divine judgment.”
It was into that wilderness that the scapegoat was sent on the
Day of Atonement (Lev. 16), a wilderness quite literally viewed
as a locus of “a cosmic struggle involving the spiritual world.”
Many modern readers, even if they believe in biblical inerrancy,
will find these themes unsettling, but they are attested to in
the Old Testament, carried forward into the Second Temple period
after Israel’s exile, and glimpsed in the exorcisms performed by
Jesus in the New Testament.
What Heiser has to say about Satan will be familiar to many, but
perhaps not his argument that the demons who seek to tempt,
subvert, and possess human beings were believed to have their
origin in the hybrid Nephilim that were born to the sons of god
and daughters of men. When those Nephilim died, Heiser claims,
their disembodied spirits became demons. Another unfamiliar
theme concerns the origin of the cosmic, political-territorial
spiritual warfare we discover in the Bible. Heiser says it began
not in a primeval rebellion by Satan and his minions, but
instead when “the sons of god [to whom God had apportioned the
nations] transgressed Yahweh’s desire for earthly order and just
rule of his human imagers, sowing chaos in the nations.”
But we need not fear, Heiser assures us; after Christ defeated
the power of Satan, he opened the way to a reclamation of the
demon-controlled nations. This reclamation took place at
Pentecost (Acts 2), when the gospel was carried to all those
lands previously ruled by the rebellious sons of god. Good
Friday, Easter, and Pentecost together healed the division begun
by Babel, making it possible for the Gentiles to free themselves
from false gods and embrace Jesus as Lord.
Breaking Down the Darkness
Though many readers might trip over the technical aspects of
Angels and Demons, with their lengthy charts and heavy emphasis
on the parsing of Hebrew and Greek terms, Heiser keeps things
moving and skillfully sums up his main points. I do wish,
however, that he had been more sympathetic to modern
spiritual-warfare advocates who share Heiser’s concept of cosmic
strife that includes a strong territorial element. Though I
agree with Heiser that the fallen sons of god were disinherited
by the Cross, the Resurrection, and the spreading of the gospel,
it’s hard to deny that certain areas of the globe remain
immersed in spiritual darkness.
Spiritual-warfare advocates have located just such an area in a
rectangle that stretches from the 10th to the 40th latitude
north of the equator. This “10/40 window,” as missions
strategists sometimes call it, encompasses North Africa, the
Middle East, China, Pakistan, and India. Given that the vast
majority of unreached people groups live in this window and that
persecution of the church is strongest there, it does not seem
unreasonable to suggest that a territorial reign of evil (or
stronghold) exists in that area of the globe, and that intense
prayer on the part of believers may help break down demonic
communication.
I believe Heiser’s books can inspire that needed movement of
prayer just as they have illuminated the full meaning and extent
of spiritual warfare in the pages of God’s Word.
