Angels and demons

From the splendor of the seraphic heaven and in the midst of the hymns of praise the angels raised to God, an unexpected turmoil arose among the ranks of the spiritual beings. Lucifer, adorned with radiant heavenly ornaments, was faultless in his ways from the day he was created until iniquity took root in him. Blinded by his own beauty, he became prideful and lost his wisdom, daring to no longer submit to the Creator, but to defy Him. Chapter from the book ”The church and the sleepless worms” by Mihai Urzica

Traditional paintings depict devils as black and hairy, with horns, beards, and hooves. In other words, they take on animalistic features, but they specifically resemble black goats. Chapter from the book Understanding the Old Testament by Fr. Dc. Alexandru Mihaila
