    Yes Milton did write about him in Paradise Lost.

    You can also find reference to him in the Kabbalistic text the Zohar.

    Nice addition Isis!!!

    In the Zohar? I have the twenty two books of the Zohar which are exhausting. Do you know which books he is mentioned in. What a trip.

    The Victors write the history books, perhaps he was prometheus? Another in a long line of beings who were chastised for helping man. It's really disheartening you know, things like this try to help you and BAM, you get chained to a rock. How's that for justice?

    sorry, just non-sensical ramblings from a bitter man. Ignore ME!

    Prometheus was punished for his kindness and had to live not only chained to a rock but his liver eaten away and then grow back. He was eventually freed but not without much suffering. Perhaps you are right about Azazel , these helpmates always get a bad rap so to speak. A bitter man eh? Can I join the list even though I am a woman. LOL.

    It's in Vayeze 153a of the Zohar.

    Something interesting is that the meaning of Name Azazel is "God strengthens"!

    In The Zohar the rider on the serpent is symbolized by "the evil Azazel". Irenaeus calls Azazel "that fallen and yet mighty angel".

    Az as well as Aza both mean the same thing; power, strength or strong one.

    The similarity of the names shows that they were two sides of a coin in the same way that Adam and Eve, and Samael and Lillith were two aspects of one entity.

    In heaven the name still would have the suffix “El” added to it; Azael. The power of God.

    Here we go again. I wonder who decides what is evil and what is not. Oft times goodness gets confused with evil and evil is disguised as goodness. It is up to us to know the difference. I have found beauty in ugliness and I have found ugliness in beauty. I have found the light in all. I will always see the good in the way that most do not.

    Yes, I know him. He is the part of the psyche manifesting as a being you can invoke and use to pour Light into the earthly realm. In Tarot, Azazel is identified as The Devil.
