Are there female fallen angels? If yes, what might be their names? In this article, we will offer answer to these questions. Keep reading to explore the female fallen angels’ names.
Fallen angels are celestial beings who were cast out of heaven for sinfully rebelling against God. One of the well known fallen angels is Lucifer, chronicled in the Book of Isaiah 14: 12:
“How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations!”
When it comes to gender among angels, many of them were addresses as male with the pronoun “he and his.” A typical example is noted in Daniel 10: 6 which says:
“His body was like beryl, his face like the appearance of lightning, his eyes like torches of fire, his arms and feet like burnished bronze in color, and the sound of his words like the voice of a multitude.”
From the biblical verse above, it is clearly indicated that angels are male. This therefore gives immense rise to the question whether all angels, especially the fallen angels are male.
According to the Book of Enoch, the fall of angels is categorized into four – first fall, second fall, third fall and fourth fall. For better understanding of this mentioned falls of angels, read this blog post: Names of fallen angels
