Profile

Origin

Sariel[a] (lit. "prince of God") is a name of an angel in Jewish writings, especially Second Temple literature such as the Book of Enoch and the War Scroll. The name appears to have been used interchangeably with Uriel and Phanuel,[1] though note that Sariel and Uriel are listed separately in Enoch 20.[2]

In the chapter 20 verse 6 of the Book of Enoch, Sariel is one of the seven holy angels of the powers, and he is said to be "set over the spirits who sin in the spirit".[2] This verse is not preserved in the Aramaic fragments, but the angel Sariel is mentioned as one of four angels along with Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel in one location where the Greek and Ethiopic instead have Uriel.[3]

In the Aramaic version of Enoch 6:7, there is a fallen angel named Sahriel (lit. "moon of god")[b] who is listed as one of the leaders of the fallen angels; the Greek and Ethiopic versions have a different list of angels, though a Sariel (with the same spelling as the holy angel) is listed in some Greek manuscripts in a different place in the list.[4][5] In Enoch 8:3, Sahriel[c] is said to have to have taught humans the course of the moon.[6][7] Regardless, the Megami Tensei franchise treats both the holy angel Sariel and the fallen angel Sahriel as one and the same.

In the War Scroll, Sariel is one of four angels (along with Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael) whose name is to be written on the shields of tower soldiers.[8]

In the Ladder of Jacob and later Targum Neofiti, Sariel is identified as the one whom Jacob wrestled with and who renamed him Israel.[9]

Devil Survivor 2

One of the Seven Archangels. His name means "God's command," and he is said to be an angel of death.

His role is to watch over human souls and prevent them from sinning. He also governs the phases of the moon, but as a result of telling that secret to humans, he fell from grace. He is said to have silently left the heavens with dignity. He also has an evil eye that can hurt anyone it falls upon.Unused
