For the first time in over a century, the Book of Abaddon again sees the light of day. It has received many names, such as the Enthronement of Abbaton or the Discourse on Abbaton, telling the story of how the Angel of Death received his name and office. Abaddon, the angel of the bottomless pit mentioned in the Book of Revelation, is portrayed as an Archangel along with Michael and Gabriel -- not as one of Satan's rebels, as is the popular interpretation. This ancient, gothic tale is one of the least known books of the apocrypha, but its importance is monumental. It is rumored to have been derived from the works of the first Messianic Jews that lived in Jerusalem during the early development of the Church. Therefore, clear parallels between both Jewish and Christian tradition are unveiled in this ancient, forgotten tale. Perhaps, Judaism and Biblical Christianity are not so different, after all.
