Why did Amenadiel almost die?

Why did Amenadiel almost die? - Monochrome Photo of Statue

In Lucifer's final episode of the first season we saw that Amenadiel almost died because of Maze's knife. But for Lucifer it was nothing. In previous episodes Maze threw knives at him.

Assuming that and that they are brothers: Why did the knife almost kill one and did nothing to another?



Best Answer

I think you missed the key dialogue in the previous episode. When Maze threw the knife at Lucifer and he caught it, he said something like:

Demon knives forged in Hell don't count, we all know these draw blood.

In other words, those knives would have hurt Lucifer, if they have hit him. Maze just assumed Lucifer would catch them, because she'd been throwing harmless "normal" knives at him for a while.

If Lucifer hadn't caught Maze's knife and it had hit him somewhere important, it absolutely would have hurt him, possibly badly. And Amenadiel wasn't just stabbed with a knife: it was driven deep into him, then scraped around inside his gut to ensure that it was a mortal wound.

Why are Amenadiel wings falling off?

Following his failure to bring Lucifer back to Hell, Amenadiel loses his wings. Believing it to be a punishment and test from God, Amenadiel makes it his priority to help Lucifer redeem himself. Despite Amenadiel assisting Lucifer in regaining his wings, he still fails to have his own wings brought back.

What happens to Amenadiel?

Amenadiel becomes God. He passed on the chance initially not only because he wanted to be with his family, but because he realized how much he enjoyed being on earth and making a difference that way.

Does Amenadiel get his wings back?

At the end of the third season, Amenadiel regains his wings after witnessing Charlotte's death and takes her soul to heaven.
