DIVINE COUNCIL      Pastor Lillie Ferrell
                 TeacherPreacher.com
The Divine Council

• A symbolic ruling body consisting of God as the
  supreme monarch and various supernatural
  attendants.
• Working through innumerable hosts of angelic
  servants, God creates and rules the physical
  universe, as well as the world of men.
• The Council of YHVH is responsible for
  maintaining order in creation especially earth
  and Israel.
YHWH the Judge


       • makes judicial decisions about
         the activities of its occupants.
       • initiates punitive actions
         against those forces (divine or
         human) which cause chaos
         and disorder(i.e. sin),
       • restores tsedaqah
         (righteousness) and shalom
         (wholeness, peace).
Angelic Host

• Serve YHWH in each of his corresponding offices.
• The King’s royal throne-room
   – praise their King and act as his official counselors, courtiers, and
     messengers.
• The Judge’s court
   – Act as witnesses, investigating detectives, bailiffs, and perhaps
     fellow judges.
• The Warrior vast army
   – wage war on evil beings
Monotheism - Majesty of Yahweh

• Yahweh is a unique God, but He is not alone
• The Divine council did not threaten the position of YHVH
  (Deut 10:17),
• The conception of a host of angels or heavenly beings
  surrounding Yahweh is always present in Israel. . . .
• People could not conceive Yahweh in another fashion. . .
• Far from clashing with monotheism this conception
  shows the Majesty of Yahweh.
Monotheism - Majesty of Yahweh


God has taken his place in the divine council; In
the midst of the gods he holds judgment . . I say,
“You are gods, sons of the Most High, all of you.”
(Ps 82:1, 6)
Who are the Divine Council Members?

• Many names occur in the book of Psalms, in Job
• the beings do not have regularly prescribed titles at all;
  the titles change.
• In other words, as the beings serve different functions
  they are titled accordingly.
• a messenger could also be a soldier in YHVHs army or a
  minister in the temple
