abaddon
destruction, the hebrew name equivalent to the greek apollyon,
i.e., destroyer of "the angel of the bottomless pit" rev.
9:11. it is rendered "destruction" in job 28:22; 31:12; 26:6;
prov. 15:11; 27:20. in the last three of these passages the
revised version retains the word "abaddon." we may regard this
word as a personification of the idea of destruction, or as
sheol, the realm of the dead.
