Origin

"Azazel" originates as a term used in chapter 16 of the Book of Leviticus. The chapter describes a ritual in which the high priest Aaron was to take two goats: one goat was to be a sin-offering to YHVH, and the other was to be cast out into the wilderness to Azazel. It is not entirely certain what Azazel originally meant; it could refer to the place where the goat was sent, or it could refer to some sort of demon or deity. In the King James Version, the phrase literally meaning "to/for Azazel" is translated as "as the scapegoat." Regardless, Azazel in some later texts, such as the Book of Enoch, is used as the name of a fallen angel.
