According to Wikipedia, Samyaza is \u201c<a href=\"http:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Samyaza\" target=\"_blank\" class=\" decorated-link\" rel=\"nofollow\">a fallen angel of apocryphal Jewish and Christian tradition<\/a>\u201d and one of the \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.patheos.com\/blogs\/filmchat\/2012\/07\/aronofskys-noah-may-be-even-stranger-than-you-thought.html#more-3343\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\">Watchers<\/a>\u201d who have come up in earlier posts at this blog. Even more interestingly, it seems that some \u2014 but by no means all \u2014 of these later traditions may have identified Samyaza with Satan.<\/p>\n<p>Margolis is clearly neither in costume nor in character in this picture, so it\u2019s way too early to say where the film is going with this. But it\u2019s just one more thing that makes me very interested to see this film when it comes out in 2014.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We can\u2019t let more than a few weeks go by here without posting something about Darren Aronosky\u2019s Noah, so here\u2019s a link to some photos from the New York set that were posted at On Location Vacations a couple weeks ago.
