Spiritual beings in the biblical story

Bible Project·Bible Project·5:16

The Bible features a cast of characters beyond God and humans, including figures referred to as "Elohim," angels, the Satan, and demons. These spiritual beings are often misunderstood, and ancient biblical authors viewed them as heavenly creatures that populate a spiritual reality alongside ours. This video explores the roles and nature of these beings within the biblical narrative.
