§Form & Usage▶
LJLA, Qum. also: אבדון < BH
אְָבַדּוֹן ; Tg.Prov. uniquely: יובדון ; Mand. apparently distinguishes between the native audana "desolate place" and the pl.t. loan ˀbdunia "abaddons".
Abaddon is known in English through its use in Christian Scripture at Rev. 9:11, where it is the name of the ruler of the netherworld. In Jewish tradition it is a name for one of the realms of the underworld.
