Escape From Hell
Part-2
The Serpent transformation from “Guardian Cherubim” to the “Accuser” or the “Adversary” after the expulsion from Eden apparently did not limit his access to the Creator Elohim according to the book of Job. In the book of Revelation the serpent and other Elohim who joined him dwell within a certain realm outside or within the earth atmosphere- “hollow moon” like concept. These same entities could very well be the “Watchers” described in the book of Enoch.
Then a war broke out in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon, and the dragon and his angels fought back. 8But the dragon was not strong enough, and no longer was any place found in heaven for him and his angels. 9And the great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.
The Watchers were a group of heavenly beings—angels—sent by God to observe and guide humanity. However, they rebelled against divine command:
Desire for Human Women: According to 1 Enoch 6–2, two hundred angels, led by Semjaza, descended to Mount Hermon and took human wives. They said to one another: "Let us take wives from among the daughters of men and beget us children."
The Watchers taught humanity forbidden knowledge, including metallurgy, weaponry, cosmetics, astrology, and other arts
The book of Revelation also describes these “watchers” who not only taught us forbidden knowledge but at the same time accused us of our deeds day and night.
10And I heard a loud voice in heaven saying:
“Now have come the salvation and the power
and the kingdom of our God,
and the authority of His Christ.
For the accuser of our brothers has been thrown down—
he who accuses them day and night before our God.
This is a surveillance operation that these “Watchers” are performing and as mentioned in the book of Job, human activities were reported day and night to the Kingdom.
Currently, the governments around the world are preparing the way for this “heavenly” surveillance to be transferred to the earth so that these fallen Elohim can continue their operations when they are cast down. It should become obvious that people like Elon Musk among others are nearing the completion of this project. See 40,000 Starlink satellite live map HERE. It is the completion of the World Wide Web and it is obvious who the “spider” is.
Aside from the Elohim who appear to be a collective of beings from a kingdom, following are the list of deities on earth mentioned in the Old Testament provided by Claude Mariottini

1. Adrammelech (2 Kings 17:31)
The name of one of the gods the people of Sepharvaim worshiped. The Sepharvaim were a group of people the Assyrians settled in Samaria after the fall of the Northern Kingdom.
2. Anammelech (2 Kings 17:31)
Another god of the people of Sepharvaim. The people of Sepharvaim worshiped their gods by sacrificing their children by burning them.
3. Ashima (2 Kings 17:30)
A god worshiped by the people of Hamath who settled in Samaria after the fall of the Northern Kingdom.
4. Ashtoreth (1 Kings 11:5)
Ashtoreth was the goddess of the Sidonians. Ashtoreth is the name by which the Canaanite goddess Astarte is called in the Old Testament. She was the consort of Baal, the Canaanite storm god.
5. Baal (Numbers 25:3)
Baal was the Canaanite storm god. Baal was also associated with the fertility of the land. The word “Baal” means “lord,” “husband.” Many people in Israel worshiped Baal in his different manifestations. The earliest mention of Baal in the Old Testament is in Number 25:3 when the people of Israel yoked themselves to the Baal of Peor.
6. Bel (Jeremiah 51:44)
The name by which Marduk, the god of the Babylonians, is called in the Old Testament. Bel appears in the Apocrypha, in the addition to the book of Daniel.
7. Chemosh (1 Kings 11:7)
The national god of the Moabites to whom Solomon built a temple in the mountains east of Jerusalem. The writer of Kings calls this god “the abomination of Moab.” The Moabites were called “The people of Chemosh” (Numbers 21:29).
8. Dagon (Judges 16:23)
Dagon appears in the Old Testament as the god of the Philistines. The nature and characteristics of Dagon are not very clear. Some scholars have identified Dagon as a “grain” god while others have identified him as a “fish” god. It seems that the Philistines adopted the cult of Dagon after they settled in the land of Canaan.
9. Kaiwan (NRSV) or Kiyyun (ESV; Amos 5:26)
Amos calls Kaiwan “your star-god.” Kaiwan was an astral god worshiped by some people of the Northern Kingdom after they became vassals of the Assyrians. This god is associated with the planet Saturn.
10. Milcom (1 Kings 11:5)
Milcom is known as “the abomination of the Ammonites.” He is also known as Molech. Jeremiah says that the Israelites offered their sons and daughters as a sacrifice to Molech by burning them. The meaning of the name is not clear. Probably, the meaning of the name is derived from the word “melek,” the Hebrew word for king.
11. Molech (Jeremiah 32:35)
Molech is the same god as Milcom above. The name Molech comes from the consonants of the word “melek,” “king” and the vowels of the Hebrew word “bosheth,” a word that means “shame.”
12. Nebo (Isaiah 46:1)
The name of a Babylonian god that appears only in Isaiah. The name of this god appears in the name of Nebuchadnezzar, king of Babylon.
13. Nehushtan (2 Kings 18:4)
This was the bronze serpent worshiped by some people in Judah in the days of Hezekiah. This deity was associated with the serpent Moses made in the wilderness (Numbers 21:8-9).
14. Nibhaz (2 Kings 17:31)
The name of a god worshiped by the Avvites, a people brought to Samaria by the Assyrians.
15. Nisroch (2 Kings 19:37)
The Assyrian god worshiped by Sennacherib, king of Assyria. According to the biblical text Sennacherib was worshiping his god when he was killed by his sons.
16. Rimmon (2 Kings 5:18)
A Syrian god. After Naaman was cured from his leprosy and proclaimed his faith in the God of Israel, he recognized that he would still have to bow down to Rimmon because he served the king of Syria.
17. Sakkuth (NRSV) or Sikkuth (ESV; Amos 5:26)
A Babylonian deity associated with astral worship. In the book of Amos, Sakkuth appears together with Kaiwan.
18. Succoth-benoth (2 Kings 17:30)
The name of a god worshiped by the people of Babylon who lived in Samaria after the Assyrians conquered the city of Samaria in 722 B.C.
19. Tammuz (Ezekiel 8:14).
A Mesopotamian god whose cult has been associated with the cycle of the harvest. The weeping for Tammuz is a reference to the death of the god, which in turn was associated with the agricultural calendar
20. Tartak (2 Kings 17:31)
The god worshiped by the Avvites, a group of people brought to Samaria by the Assyrians after they conquered the Northern Kingdom.
21. The Queen of Heaven (Jeremiah 7:18).
The name of an unidentified goddess worshiped by the people of Judah in the days of the prophet Jeremiah (7th and 6th centuries B.C.). The Queen of Heaven appears only in the book of Jeremiah (7:18; 44:17, 18, 19, 25). This goddess has been identified with the Mesopotamian goddess Ishtar and with the Canaanite goddess Ashtoreth, also known as Astarte.
But where is the serpent on the list? These gods dwelled in certain regions and had certain attributes as mentioned above. Weather, harvest and war obviously were some of the reason they were worshipped for.
According to the book of Exodus, after Moses killed an Egyptian he fled Egypt and ended up in the land of Midian.
When Pharaoh heard about this matter, he sought to kill Moses. But Moses fled from Pharaoh and settled in the land of Midian, where he sat down beside a well.
16Now the priest of Midian had seven daughters, and they came to draw water and fill the troughs to water their father’s flock. 17And when some shepherds came along and drove them away, Moses rose up to help them and watered their flock.
18When the daughters returned to their father Reuel, he asked them, “Why have you returned so early today?”
19“An Egyptian rescued us from the shepherds,” they replied. “He even drew water for us and watered the flock.”
20“So where is he?” their father asked. “Why did you leave the man behind? Invite him to have something to eat.”
21Moses agreed to stay with the man, and he gave his daughter Zipporah to Moses in marriage. 22And she gave birth to a son, and Moses named him Gershom, saying, “I have become a foreigner in a foreign land.”
The land of Midian was located in the northwest of Arabia (west of today Saudi Arabia). They were descendants of Midian, who was the son of the Hebrew patriarch Abraham and his wife Keturah. Jethro, the priest of Median is mentioned in the Quran as an Arabian prophet.
Mount Sinai is located in the region and the Bible describes it as the “mountain of God”. It is very likely that the priest of Midian through his father, Abraham was also a worshipper of Elohim, who the Arabs call Allah.
The term "Elohim" is considered a cognate of the Ugaritic "ʾlhm" (the family of El), the Aramaic "ʾĔlāhā," and the Arabic "ʾilāh" (or "Allah" as "The [single] God"). Therefore, while "Allah" is not a direct derivative of "Elohim" or "El," it is etymologically related through their shared Proto-Semitic root.
However, based on archaeological findings they also worshipped other gods as well which included YAHWEH who dwelled on mount Horeb (Sinai).
There are some Bible references that indicate a connection between YAHWEH and the serpent.
Then Moses answered, “What if they do not believe me or listen to my voice? For they may say, ‘The LORD has not appeared to you.’ ”
2And the LORD asked him, “What is that in your hand?”
“A staff,” he replied.
3“Throw it on the ground,” said the LORD. So Moses threw it on the ground, and it became a snake, and he ran from it.
4“Stretch out your hand and grab it by the tail,” the LORD said to Moses, who reached out his hand and caught the snake, and it turned back into a staff in his hand.
In another occasion serpents were sent out to punish people because their basic needs were not met and their situation was worse than that of Egypt as slaves.
They traveled from Mount Hor along the route to the Red Sea, to go around Edom. But the people grew impatient on the way; 5they spoke against God and against Moses, and said, “Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread! There is no water! And we detest this miserable food!”
6Then the Lord sent venomous snakes among them; they bit the people and many Israelites died.
Moses intervened and YAHWEH provided a solution via an image of snake but did not stop the snake from biting people. This could very well be todays symbol for medical industrial complex.
The Lord said to Moses, “Make a snake and put it up on a pole; anyone who is bitten can look at it and live.” 9So Moses made a bronze snake and put it up on a pole. Then when anyone was bitten by a snake and looked at the bronze snake, they lived.
This bronze serpent, known as Nehushtan, became an object of worship over time, which King Hezekiah later destroyed during his religious reforms, as the people were offering sacrifices to it. The name "Nehushtan" is a pun on the Hebrew words for "snake" (nāḥāš) or "brass" (nəḥošeṯ), suggesting meanings like "The (Great) Serpent" or "The (Great) Brass".
Some interpretations, particularly from non-mainstream sources, suggest that YHWH himself was originally associated with serpent worship. These views propose that YHWH's name may derive from the Semitic word for "snake" (hwh) combined with "Yah" (meaning life), leading to a meaning of "the living snake god". Evidence cited includes the Negev inscriptions, which depict YHWH as a serpent with a forked tongue, and the presence of serpent imagery on ancient altars and synagogue stones, such as the Beersheba altar and the Migdal Synagogue stone. Additionally, the connection between YHWH and the moon god Iah (Yah) is suggested, with both being associated with serpents in ancient Semitic religions.
It was Hezekiah who approximately 800 years later destroyed the serpent Moses had made.
He removed the high places and broke the sacred pillars, cut down the wooden image and broke in pieces the bronze serpent that Moses had made; for until those days the children of Israel burned incense to it, and called it Nehushtan.
In another instance a human sacrifice was offered to Yahweh.
Jephthah made a vow to the LORD. “If you deliver the Ammonites into my power,” he said,
31“whoever comes out of the doors of my house to meet me when I return from the Ammonites in peace shall belong to the LORD. I shall offer him up as a burnt offering.”
………..When Jephthah returned to his house in Mizpah, it was his daughter who came out to meet him, with tambourine-playing and dancing. She was his only child: he had neither son nor daughter besides her.
35When he saw her, he tore his garments and said, “Ah, my daughter! You have struck me down and brought calamity upon me. For I have made a vow to the LORD and I cannot take it back.”
36“Father,” she replied, “you have made a vow to the LORD. Do with me as you have vowed, because the LORD has taken vengeance for you against your enemies the Ammonites.”
37Then she said to her father, “Let me have this favor. Do nothing for two months, that I and my companions may go wander in the mountains to weep for my virginity.”
38“Go,” he replied, and sent her away for two months. So she departed with her companions and wept for her virginity in the mountains.
39At the end of the two months she returned to her father, and he did to her as he had vowed. She had not had relations with any man.
Is Yahweh the same serpent in the garden- the beast and the dragon mentioned in the book of Revelation? While the Jewish nation and the Judeo-Christians are attempting to hasten prophecy in order to summon the Messiah, they may find themselves in a peculiar situation in which they become tools that gather all nations for the battle of Armageddon against their Creator Elohim.
