Rulers of the World of This Darkness
1910 New Catholic Dictionary
One of the several terms Saint Paul (Ephesians 6) applies to the evil spirits, whose leader is the "prince of darkness". As a consequence of original sin the world had been given over to the "world-rulers of this darkness," but by the redeeming death of Christ it was bought back to the kingdom of God and of light.
