| Sep 25 at 3:24 | comment | added | Nihil Sine Deo | @dieter much appreciated, as stated earlier I gave you the benefit of the doubt. My response remains the same, it was a vision, they were depictions of demons hence they could be feminine and the reference to Shinar only strengthens the case that they were not “angelic”. I don’t prefer the term angel as it’s a function namely a messenger, I much prefer a heavenly being. Nonetheless these women in the mentioned verse do not fit the description of angels, and the text does not use the term angel nor does it infer angel. | |

Instead, I'm comfortable to leave questions open, looking for a range of interpretations without choosing any, but preferring some or excluding others based on likelihoods that are influenced by word choices, culture, context, and other factors in hermeneutics. I also prefer to identify and challenge assumptions from myself and from others. Hope this makes my perspective clearer. | |
| Sep 24 at 20:24 | comment | added | Nihil Sine Deo | @dieter I’m going assume this is an earnest inquiry. Firstly this is a vision not a real event, cows don’t eat other cows and wheat don’t eat other wheat but yet that was the vision in the night for pharaoh. Secondly in the vision they had stork wings which are unclean birds, hence they not heavenly beings, they are demonic and since the flood of Noah demons resulting for the death of the Nephilim (not the fallen angels) are both males and females and lastly, they were going to shinar or Babylon, again a reference to evil. Nothing indicates “angels” or heavenly beings | |
