Grendel

Grendel is a monstrous creature from the Old English epic poem Beowulf. Described as a descendant of the biblical Cain, Grendel is a malevolent being who terrorizes the Danish king Hrothgar and his warriors in their mead-hall, Heorot. The creature is depicted as a powerful, shadowy figure who attacks the hall nightly, devouring the warriors and causing widespread fear. Grendel's name is thought to derive from the Old English word "grendel," meaning "to raid" or "to attack," reflecting his predatory nature. In Hebrew, the name can be translated as גרנדל. The creature's role in Beowulf is pivotal, serving as the first of three major antagonists that the hero Beowulf must confront. Grendel's attacks symbolize the chaos and evil that must be overcome by heroic action and divine intervention. The character has been widely analyzed and interpreted in modern literature and scholarship, often seen as a representation of the darker aspects of human nature or the struggles between good and evil.
