Nsab (original) (raw)

In Mandaeism, Nṣab (Classical Mandaic: ࡍࡑࡀࡁ, lit. 'Plant') is an uthra (angel or guardian). He is also called Nṣab Rba ("the Great Nṣab") or Nṣab Ziwa ("the Radiant Nṣab" or "Splendid Plant"). Nṣab and Anan-Nṣab ('cloud of Nṣab', a female consort) are frequently mentioned together as a pair in the Right Ginza and Qolasta.
