“They are seven, they are seven! In the depths of the ocean they are seven! In the brilliance of the heavens they are seven! Neither male nor female are they. They are as the roaming windblast. They know no mercy, they rage against mankind.”
The Seven Udug are a group of seven nameless evil spirits who appear repeatedly in Mesopotamian incantation literature as a collective force of destruction. They are neither male nor female, neither fully divine nor fully demonic — they exist in a liminal space, attacking gods (they cause eclipses by assaulting the moon) and humans alike. They bring disease, madness, and death. Their relevance to biblical tradition lies in the recurring motif of seven evil spirits: Luke 8:2 states that Jesus cast seven demons out of Mary Magdalene; Matthew 12:45 describes an unclean spirit returning with seven others worse than itself. The number seven as a unit of demonic power is Mesopotamian in origin, and these storm demons are its earliest expression.
