When Paul used the word “archas” he emphatically telling us that at the very top of satan’s domain is a group of demon spirits who have held their lofty positions of power and authority ever since ancient times…probably since the fall of Lucifer. Then Paul goes on to mention “powers” as those evil forces that are second in command in the devil’s dark dominion. The word “powers” is taken from the word ‘exousia’, and it denotes DELEGATED AUTHORITY. This tells us that there is a lower-ranking group of demon spirits who have received DELEGATED AUTHORITY from satan to do whatever they wan to do, wherever they desire to do it. The demon spirits in this second group use their delegated authority to carry out all manner of evil and wickedness.
