Origins of King Paimon

[lazarus]

I’ve heard people say King Paimon is the god of the Jinn but I have not seen backing to this? At least not much of it? I really could use some sources because King Paimon has really been influencing me to look more into this, especially every time I start researching his origins. I think his origins are important for the work we will do together. I’m also aware that he may originate from Arsu which is Palmyran, but that doesn’t have much information I can find on it either.

A member of the forum previously said that “paimon” is a name in persia (Iran) and it means “pact” or “path”

The name "Paimon"

A lot of you people might not know that the name Paimon or Paymon is a Persian word of meaning “Oath” or “Pact”. It has also been and is a boy name in Persia. Those who have worked with King Paimon or are close to him or have any information about his name, please come forth and join this thread and tell us what u think about this. I’m sure there’s a lot of other people find this interesting.

Paimon can also be derived from the Hebrew word for ticking bells Pomn which may be a reference to his majestic appearance.

This is what we call UPG here, or unverified personal gnosis. There is no historical basis to this, and I personally think this idea is primarily based on the fact that Paimon’s description in the Goetia is that of a Middle Eastern looking man riding a camel.
