deleted statement[edit]

I deleted the following statement as unsourced:

"It is said [by whom?] that Abyzou is full of hate for not being able to bear children herself. It is said that she fell in love with a Archangel, and bonded herself to them but did not bear them any children, realizing she could not conceive, she bacame unable to love, only lived for hate and the blood of children."

The Testament of Solomon does not say this, although in context it is implied as the source; see the passage on Abzyou (called Obizuth in the Testament) here. Cynwolfe (talk) 23:22, 5 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

WP:Christianity tag[edit]

I tagged this article with the WP:Christianity tag because, according to the article, this demon Abyzou crosses paths with several prominent figures in Christian belief or seems to find a place in some of the older sects. Not counting the apocryphal Testament of Solomon, the article states:

Abyzou is identified with Alabasandria "in Coptic Egypt" (Lead section).
Abyzou is "on several early Byzantine bronze amulets. With her hands tied behind her back, she kneels as she is whipped by a standing figure, identified as Solomon or Arlaph... [who is] identified with the archangel Raphael."
"In one magic-related text, the archangel Michael confronts Abyzou..."
"At the monastery of St. Apollo in Bawit, Egypt, a wall painting depicts the childbirth demon..."

I've never heard of the demon Abyzou before now, but it seems the article is relevant to Christianity and would appeal to readers interested in some the lesser known figures in Christian tradition. Boneyard90 (talk) 18:01, 20 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
