...which found its origins in Hebrew means destroyer. In the Bible it is both a place and a being. It is the place of destruction and an angel of the abyss. In Old Testament it is use to refer to the bottomless pit, in the New Testament he is the king of an army of locusts in the apocalypse. The Hebrew abaddon (Hebrew: אבדון; abaddon) is an intensive form of the Semitic root and verb stem abad (אָבַד) meaning "perish", "destroy"
Reference: Job 26:6, Psalm 88:11, Proverbs 27:20, Revelation 9:11
