Can Someone Explain This?, A site containing untamed information on Archangel Azrael Options

I was searching to read on the Archangel of Death known as "Azrael" and I came up with this site:

Azrael

Now I have no idea why, but the site's information seems to be twisted, based on Christian/Pagan theories on the Archangel and life after death. Or is this part of an RHP game?

Anyone who knows about archangels are angelic spirits perhaps could tell me what this site is faunting?

I came across this website. Haven't quite looked it through, but seems promising.

Greetings,

Azrael has Biblical sources to his credit as well as books of Apocrypha. <Books which did not make it into the Bible for various reasons.>

He is not recognized as an Archangel by the Vatican. He is however one of the ministering class of angels of high position.

I have not seen a lot out there on summoning him except The Necromantic Ritual Book by Wendell Leliah if my memory is correct.

It gives a great method of contacting Azrael in a graveyard and communing with him. Although I do not advocate the tomb robbing recommended in the book. It deals with Necromancy.

This angel should be regarded as important to anyone who practices Necromancy.

I equate him to the 8th name of Marduk Namtillaku of Simons Necronomicon.

He is not to be confused with the Egregore / watcher from the book of Enoch Azazel which is the Christian Lucifer.

Before Azrael became the angel of death the Archangel Michael held the position and claimed souls with his sword. There is still a bond between Michael and Azrael because of this.

Google Azrael and Apocrypha or Bible as I do not remember my source for this but it should not be hard to find.

Judging that he has Hebrew Christian and Islamic sources I believe it is pretty safe to say he exist outside of some RPG game.

He is definitely not evil he is just doing his job. He is easy to summon if you don't mind siting in a graveyard at night. I would strongly recommend calling him if a loved one is on their death bed.

As Azrael can pass you over. There is a story in the Bible in which he took the souls of all first born in Egypt. Except for the Hebrews who splashed sacrificial blood on thier doors at the advice of Moses.

At least make friends with him before you die!

Peace
