Meaning of exgod | Babel Free

Noun CEFR B1

Definitions

One who was formerly a god or revered as such.

Examples

“A tribe subjected by a stronger one often feels that its own gods are weaker, and so they are discredited, and that those of its conquerors are mighty and so they prevail. Occasionally vistors^([sic]) seem to cherish rancor against the religion of their victims, and hence many devils are really exgods, thus degraded.”
“When next I looked up, there was another exgod at the desk. An older guy. In a toga, his hair and beard long-curled and oiled. Holy mud, it could have been Poseidon, himself . . . but was not.”
