Abdiel - The name of Abdiel is first
mentioned in the Bible (1st Chronicles), where Abdiel

in history and literature, Abdiel (meaning "servant
of God") is an angel.
During the War in Heaven, Abdiel was the only angel
under Satan's command who refused to rebel against God.
Blasphemously making himself a mountain throne in heaven,
Satan first had to talk his subordinates into following
his scheme for a rebellion. Speaking to an assembly
of the angels under him, Satan blasted his followers
for obeying God, calling their loyal service a nasty
"prostration" and saying that they were really
meant to rule, not to be servile underlings. Abdiel,
however, heckled Satan, saying that the idea of a created
being rebelling against his Maker was crazy - like a
puppet turning against the puppet-maker who held its
strings. Abdiel argued that Satan had to be weaker than
God since God created him. Satan shot back that, no,
he was not a created being - which was another lie from
the Father of Lies. Abdiel just says no - flying away,
leaving his more impressionable colleagues behind to
be manipulated and tricked in to going along with Satan's
cosmic error. The complete tale is told in Puritan John
Milton's 12 volume epic poem Paradise Lost.

Azazel - was one of the chieftains
of the two hundred fallen angels who, according to the
Book of Enoch, came to earth to mate with mortal
women (Gen. 6:2-4). Azazel, it is said, taught men how
t fashion weapons and introduced women to such thins
as cosmetics (thus encouraging vanity). He is mentioned
by name in the book of Leviticus (16L8-10), where he
appears to have been some sort of a desert creature
to whom the ancient Israelites dedicated their scapegoats
containing the sins of the nation.
In ancient folklore, Azazel is one of 200 lustful angels
who descended to earth to have sex with attractive mortal
women - thus falling from grace. Azazel compounded this
offence against God by teaching forbidden knowledge.
Helping him here was the angel Gadreel, who taught humans
how to make weapons, as well as other fallen angels
teaching similar forbidden subjects like the vanity
of cosmetics and how to write. (See Semjaza) Azazel
started out as the name of a vague Old Testament desert
creature.
Each year, on the Day of Atonement, the Hebrew high
priest sent this creature a scapegoat. But before dispatching
the goat into the desert, the high priest symbolically
loaded down the animal with all of Israel's sins for
that year - thus purifying the Jewish people. Eventually,
Azazel became a fallen angel in the eyes of Hebrew mystics.

angels of judgment who clothes with the garment of righteousness

Azer - Angel of the element fire.
Azrael - The Angel of Death who is
"forever writing in a large book and forever erasing
what he writes: what he writes is the birth of man,
what he erases is the name of the man at death."
The Islamic angel of death with four faces, who is
covered with a million veils as he flies on four wings.
If you could look under the veils, you would see a body
completely covered with innumerable eyes - one eye for
each living person. Every time one of Azrael's eyes
blinks, a mortal is dying somewhere in the world.
Azrael keeps a roster listing of names of all human
beings, but he does not know when individual deaths
will happen. When the time for a particular person's
death has come, Allah lets a leaf drop from the tree
below His Throne - on which is written the name of the
person to die. Azrael then reads the name and separates
the soul from the person's body after 40 days. Sometimes
a mortal resists the separation, thought. To help things
along, Azrael will sometimes fly back to Allah to get
an enticing apple from Paradise to show the reluctant
mortal.
According to one Islamic legend, Azrael go his job
as the angel of death by helping Allah create Adam.
According to this story, Allah had originally sent off
the angels Djibril (Gabriel), Mikal (Michael) and Israfel
- not Azrael - to earth on a mission to facilitate the
creation. The trio was supposed to gather up different
types of clay for Allah to use in making Adam.
However, the earth refused the soil, warning the angelic
trio that the new creature would rebel against his Maker
and bring misfortune to earth. Therefore, the trio came
back to heaven without the variously colored soils.
An unhappy Allah then turned to the hard-nosed Azrael
to get the soil. Azrael wouldn't take and earthly no
for an answer. In the end, Allah rewarded the determined
Azrael for his successful mission by putting him in
charge of the sometimes tough job of splitting off dying
people's spirits from their bodies. |
