Little concern for the text as well as a tradition and reception not covered by the canon makes the narrative grow and change considerably, as well as freely negotiate in the popular media of iconography, liturgy and theatre. As a completed narrative the fall of the angels appears only in the literature of the apocalyptic movement. The so-called Henoch tradition provides revelations about the cosmos and the secrets of Heaven and Earth. Through this mystery our present world is coded as a battle between good and evil.Themes in Biblical Narrative ;6.DemonologyHistory of doctrinesGood and evilReligious aspectsChristianityHistory of doctrinesGood and evilReligious aspectsHistory of doctrinesElectronic books.DemonologyHistory of doctrines.Good and evilReligious aspectsChristianityHistory of doctrines.Good and evilReligious aspectsHistory of doctrines.202/.16Stuckenbruck LorenAuffarth ChristophNL-LeKBNL-LeKBBOOK9910451190503321The Fall of the Angels2581760UNINA
