Asmodeus: The Demon King Of The 9 Hells. Lust Incarnate

Asmodeus is one of the “Seven Princes of Hell“, a demon whose evil is matched only by his talent. He specializes in spreading lust, and he doesn’t just prey on ordinary people. Kings, queens, and even divine beings have been affected by his touch. One of the many figures that rule the hell that we also find in other cultures.

Some Renaissance Christians feared that Asmodeus was the Prince of the 9 Hells. Asmodeus is also presented as 1 of the 7 rulers of hell. In the symbolization of demons, each of these characters personifies one of the 7 deadly sins such as lust, gluttony, greed, sloth, anger, envy, and pride.

He is said to be a demon of passion, jealousy, and rage. The meaning of his name may also come from the Hebrew shamad, meaning “to destroy.” He is also known as the destroyer of men and demon of lust.
