On ancient Babylonian artwork you will find the original female winged image. Her name was Lilith. Her ancient Babylonian image can be found on the internet, just type in Babylonian Lilith. Today, Christians refer to her various and more modern images as a ‘lady angels’ – which is false and it is un-Biblical! As stated, you will find the original female winged image (from which all other statues and images eventually branched) on ancient Babylonian artwork. The Babylonians portrayed her as a large breasted woman with wings who had owls sitting at her feet. The Hebrew word ‘owl’ in Isaiah 34:14 is “Liyliyth, lee-leeth’; a night spectre, screech owl”. Lilith – or Hebrew liyliyth; lee-leeth – is recognized as a ‘succubi or succubus’ evil sexual spirit. Dictionaries define the succubi or succubus spirit as a ‘female demon’. You can also find the definition of incubus (which is another name of an evil sexual spirit) in the dictionary. Along with the incubus, the succubus is an evil sexual spirit that visits some people in the night – people who have unwittingly allowed these evil spirits access. One way access is allowed is discussed in my other document concerning Lilith and her connection to vampirism. The word Lilith even means night creature! The definition of succubus absolutely personifies Lilith – the female demon! Though demons do not really have a gender they can appear as if they do! They can even appear as a lady angel!
In Jewish folklore Lilith was supposed to have been the first wife of Adam – which is of course a lie. The story of Lilith originates from Jewish mythology (Jewish fables). Scripture gives us clear warning that we should not give heed to Jewish fables, or fables of any type – and that is why I am warning Christians about their lady winged images they call angels! Titus 1:14: Not giving heed to Jewish fables, and commandments of men, that turn from the truth. II Timothy 4:3-4: For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears; And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables. I Timothy 4:7: But refuse profane and old wives' fables, and exercise thyself rather unto godliness. Though Lilith is a fable, the evil sexual spirits behind this fable are very real. Today many Christians do not realize that they are giving heed to this fable merely by the winged images they have in their home. Their winged images and statues; or what they falsely call angels, may today look more modern than the ancient image of Lilith but their modern images still have an ancient pagan history. Having these winged images is another way that Satan’s evil access is allowed into many homes, including Christian homes! In Jewish mythology (Hebrew folklore) the original female winged images were referred to as Lilith. Today her name and image continue to be revered at Lilith Fairs. Due to renewed interest (extending beyond the Jewish people) Lilith’s myth has actually formed into a cult known today as Lilith Fairs. And some Christians are visiting these Lilith Fairs! Lilith, who is portrayed naked, clothed, or with wings (a supposed angel), is believed by her followers to have been the first wife of Adam. However, there is no scriptural evidence to back up this belief. The only scripture that even comes close to describing Lilith is found in Zechariah and it does not portray her as Adam’s wife but as Satan’s wicked servant. (The following will explain) Zechariah 5:5-11: Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth. And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah (which is a basket) that goeth forth. He said moreover, This is their resemblance through all the earth. And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead (a lid on the basket): and this is a woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah. And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. Then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came out two women, and the wind was in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork: and they lifted up the ephah between the earth and the heaven. Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear the ephah (where are they taking it)? And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar (a plain in Babylon): and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base. These two women with wings, in Zechariah 5:9, had wings like a stork; therefore, the prophet automatically knew these were not servants of the Lord because storks were unclean birds in the Old Testament.
Additional note about lady images with wings: In the Bible there is another scripture where a woman is given wings. It is found in the book of Revelation. However, the scripture itself will prove that this also is not a lady angel. Revelation 12:1-2, 5, 14: AND there appeared a great wonder in heaven; a woman clothed with the sun and the moon under her feet, and upon her head a crown ot twelve stars: And she being with child cried, travailing in birth, and pained to be delivered. And she brought forth a man child, who was to rule all nations with a rod of iron: and her child was caught up unto God, and to his throne. And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness, into her place, where she is nourished for a time, and times, and half a time, from the face of the serpent. The woman in Revelation Chapter 12 had a child – and angels do not have children. This was no angel! God never intended for people to take scripture out of context by making lady statues and images with wings and then labeling them as angels. Due to the ritualistic traditions of man many of God’s people are doing this and are being led astray. By having these images many Christians are following a false and dangerous spiritual path. They are certainly not following God’s Word. The winged woman in Revelation Chapter 12 is not an angel but is symbolic of the persecution and flight of Israel. Her eagle wings are symbolic of strength and safety. Isaiah 40:31: But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint. Some Bible scholars believe the wings in Revelation 12:14 are also symbolic of the Old and the New Testament. But, scripture still does not tell us we are to make an image of this winged woman in Revelation, because that is an idol, no matter what we call it!
Scripture in Zechariah 5:5-11 tells us that these winged women were carrying a basket of wickedness to a plain in Babylon to build it a house – yet more proof these were Satan’s servants and not the Lord’s. God’s servants would never build a house for wickedness. Zechariah Chapter 5 reveals to us that the women with wings were neither servants of God nor were they angels of God. Though the actual story of Lilith is not true the prophet was given a glimpse of the evil spirits that are behind the Lilith myth. The false goddess Lilith was revered by the Babylonians. The land of Shinar is in Babylon, and Shinar is where the winged women in Zechariah were going. Lilith’s image is still depicted today and comes in many different styles. Some of the more modern ones are portrayed as supposed angels. But, some look like a lady vampire and have wings like a stork. There are also movies out today that portray this image of Lilith and these movies are growing more and more popular among the young and old alike! The vampire Lilith is even a popular children’s comic book character! It is no coincidence that Lilith’s modern stork winged image bears a striking resemblance to the stork winged women in Zechariah 5:9, whose destination was Babylon – the spiritual home of Babylon’s revered Lilith. The description of wickedness given in Zechariah Chapter 5:5-11 is the very wickedness that today’s diverse Lilith images represent. The evil spirits that instigated the Lilith myth are the same evil spirits that have today instigated the feminist movement, abortion, witchcraft, homosexuality, and lady angels. Some of Lilith’s more modern images are depicted with wings like a stork (just as the winged women in Zechariah). At times, her modern image is portrayed without wings and usually found naked on the stage’s back drop design at Lilith fairs! To the Christian crowd Lilith’s most popular modern winged image is the revered lady angel. The Babylonians had a graven image of the Lilith that they revered – their version of the winged lady image had owls sitting at its feet. Remnants of Lilith’s ancient Babylonian image have been found on Babylonian artwork (check Babylonian history). Babylon is referred to in the Bible in Revelation 17:5 as the mother of harlots and abominations!
There are many different styles and depictions of Lilith (the lady winged image), but none more profound than the book of Zechariah 5:5-11: Then the angel that talked with me went forth, and said unto me, Lift up now thine eyes, and see what is this that goeth forth. And I said, What is it? And he said, This is an ephah (which is a basket) that goeth forth. He said moreover, This is their resemblance through all the earth. And, behold, there was lifted up a talent of lead (a lid on the basket): and this is a woman that sitteth in the midst of the ephah. And he said, This is wickedness. And he cast it into the midst of the ephah; and he cast the weight of lead upon the mouth thereof. Then lifted I up mine eyes, and looked, and, behold, there came out two women, and the wind was in their wings; for they had wings like the wings of a stork: and they lifted up the ephah between the earth and the heaven. Then said I to the angel that talked with me, Whither do these bear the ephah (where are they taking it)? And he said unto me, To build it an house in the land of Shinar (a plain in Babylon): and it shall be established, and set there upon her own base. Note: The scriptural underlining of he was added to show that God’s (wingless) angels are masculine, not feminine. The scriptural parenthesis was also added for emphasis. The Hebrew word for ‘women’ in Zechariah 5:9 is “nashiym, naw-sheem’; …[adulter]ess”. Even if a person has statues and images matching the Biblical description of an angel (which would be the likeness of a man without wings) this is also wrong, because scripture says we are not to have ‘images or likenesses of anything that is in heaven above’. Exodus 20:4 and Deuteronomy 5:8: Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above… Deuteronomy 4:16 says: Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female. New Living Translation reads: So do not corrupt yourselves by making a physical image in any form – whether of a man or a woman. The Hebrew word for ‘similitude’ in Deuteronomy 4:16 (OKJV) is “tem-oo-naw’; …something portioned (i.e. fashioned) out, as a shape…image, likeness”. II Corinthians 11:14: And no marvel; for Satan himself is transformed into an angel of light. Just by having these male and female images and statues (false angels of light) in our home we allow Satan to open spiritually evil doorways into our life. It is no coincidence that in Zechariah these winged women were carrying a basket of wickedness to the land of Shinar which is a plain in Babylon. After all Lilith was a Babylonian goddess. Again, though the actual story of Lilith is not true the prophet was given some insight of the evil spirits that are behind the Lilith myth – and what they look like. The prophet Zechariah was seeing Satan’s evil servants (the wicked powers of the air). Ephesians 6:12: For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Ephesians 2:2: Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience.
