The Heavenly host (Hebrew: צבא השמים tsva hashamayim) originally referred to the sun, moon, and stars (Deuteronomy 4:19) conceived of as an army, and later referred to the army (or host) of God, as mentioned in Abrahamic texts; the Hebrew and Christian Bibles, and the Quran in particular. Some Biblical passages indicate entities making up the divine army such as stars (Daniel 4:35,Judges 5:20, Isaiah 40:26).
