Angels, Demons, and a Talking Ass
This chapter examines the Bible’s divine world. Along with different varieties of angels and demons there are medically prophylactic snakes, a talking ass, a curse-wielding box (the Ark), supernatural rocks, giant fish, and more that are discussed in this chapter. The chapter asserts that even angels defy easy categorization in the Bible; for example, they can be human or divine depending on the context. Their counterparts too—demons and even “Satan”—the chapter shows mean different things in different parts of the Bible.
