1392,ENT_APOLLO,received_as,ENT_CHR_APOLLYON,high,"Revelation 9:11 names the angel of the bottomless pit ""Apollyon"" (Ἀπολλύων, ""Destroyer""), a transparent Greek wordplay on Apollo (Ἀπόλλων). The identification would have been unmistakable to Greek-speaking audiences: the great healing and oracular god becomes the angel of destruction and the abyss. Justin Martyr (1 Apol. 24) explicitly lists Apollo among the gods who are demons. The Apollo→Apollyon chain is the single most textually specific Olympian demonization in the New Testament.",SRC_JUSTIN_MARTYR_APOLOGIES,reviewed,PER_PATRISTIC

1394,ENT_ZEUS,received_as,ENT_CHR_DEVIL,medium,"Justin Martyr (1 Apol. 5) argues that Satan and the evil demons orchestrated all pagan worship; as sovereign of the Olympians, Zeus was structurally mapped to Satan as sovereign of the demonic realm. Augustine (City of God II.14) treats Jupiter/Zeus as the pre-eminent false deity whose example licensed all moral depravity in Roman religion. The structural correspondence — king of heaven / prince of demons — made Zeus the natural Olympian counterpart to the Christian Devil.",SRC_JUSTIN_MARTYR_APOLOGIES,reviewed,PER_PATRISTIC

1396,ENT_PAN,received_as,ENT_CHR_DEVIL,medium,"Pan's iconographic form — goat horns, cloven hooves, hairy goat haunches, lustful nature — is the primary visual source for the Christian Devil's physical appearance. Justin Martyr (1 Apol. 25) classifies satyrs and Pan-like beings among demonic figures. The ""Pan is dead"" story in Plutarch (On the Obsolescence of Oracles 17) was Christianized as the announcement of Satan's overthrow at the crucifixion. The iconographic Devil is a composite primarily derived from Pan, a reception that registers across patristic writing, medieval art, and demonology.",SRC_JUSTIN_MARTYR_APOLOGIES,reviewed,PER_PATRISTIC

Acts 19:23–41 depicts Artemis of Ephesus as the principal pagan opposition to Paul's mission — the Ephesian riot frames Artemis as the leading demonic rival to the gospel in Asia Minor.

1412,ENT_DEMETER,received_as,ENT_CHR_DEMONS,medium,Demeter's Eleusinian Mysteries were a primary patristic target: Justin Martyr (1 Apol. 66) presents the mysteries as demonic counterfeits of Christian sacraments; Clement of Alexandria (Protrepticus II) extensively mocks the Eleusinian rites as demonic obscenities.
