Kabiri. Deities and very mysterious gods with the ancient nations, including the Israelites, some of whom — as Terah, Abram’s father — worshipped them under the name of Teraphim. With the Christians, however, they are now devils, although the modern Archangels are the direct transformation of these same Kabiri. In Hebrew the latter name means “the mighty ones”, Gibborim. At one time all the deities connected with fire — whether they were divine, infernal or volcanic — were called Kabirian.
