In Christian theology, Death is not graced
with a name, but is referred to by description as an "intelligent
being" in Job XXVII-22, and in Revelations VI-8,
as "sitting on a pale horse and His name was Death".
This is echoed in earlier, Gnostic texts, particularly
The Book of Enoch; "And I looked and saw a pale horse
and the one seated upon it had the name Death."
Dion Fortune stated an excellent
observation on modern mans view of Death in her 1942 book,
Through the Gates of Death; "We must get out of the
way of thinking that death is the ultimate tragedy...It
is only the man sunk in matter who calls the Angel of
Death the great enemy. His esoteric name is the Opener
of the gates of Life."
The Death Angell Sword is of superior design and craftsmanship, beautifully
detailed and handsomely-articulated. Massive in size and
made for a one of a kind display, the sword measures 53-inches
in length and weighs over 11 pounds. Handle,
guard and pommel are plated in silver and highlighted
with 24-karat gold details. The sword's 420A
stainless steel blade is massive and is jagged
edged.
