Theangel ’s status as God ’s firstborn and his favorite son .
Thoughthe show ’s scriptural figure Amenadiel does not look in theBibleor any other religious texts , theangel ’s position as God ’s firstborn and his favourite Word , as well as his most loyal and trust , progress to it seem likely that theLucifercharacter Amenadielis ground on the Abrahamic religious belief ’ Angel Falls Michael .
Meanwhile , Mazikeen , often ring Maze , is a member of the Lilim , a class of powerful demons descend from Lilith ( Adam ’s first wife ) ; she served as Hell ’s well torturer and remain Lucifer ’s most intrust friend , accompanying him on Earth when he left Hell . Her name is likely drawn from the Hebraical term mazikin , as note in the Talmud , and is understood to refer to invisible demons that a person could come across in day-to-day lifetime .
Raziel is an holy man within the instruction of Jewish religious mysticism , aver to be the " custodian of mystery " . During the Battle for Supremacy , she side with Michael . Lastly , the Centennial State - Maker of the Universe inLucifer , Goddess , is probably based on Asherah . Scholars have suggested that ancient Israelites may have worship Asherah as the married woman of Yahweh ( God ) ; asherim , cultus objects relate to the worship of Asherah , are mentioned in the HebrewBible .
