Who is the Archangel Raphael in the Bible?

The Book of Tobit tells the story of a righteous Israelite of the Tribe of Naphtali named Tobit living in Nineveh after the deportation of the northern tribes of Israel to Assyria in 721 BC under Sargon II. (The first two and a half chapters are written in the first person.) He was particularly noted for his diligence in attempting to provide proper burials for fallen Israelites who had been slain by Sennacherib, for which the king seized all his property and exiled him. After Sennacherib's death, he was allowed to return to Nineveh, but again buried a dead man who had been murdered on the street. That night, he slept in the open and was blinded by bird droppings that fell in his eyes. This put a strain on his marriage, and ultimately, he prayed for death. Meanwhile, in faraway Media, a young woman named Sarah prays for death in despair. She has lost seven husbands to the demon of lust -- Ashmodai who abducts and kills every man she marries on their wedding night before the marriage can be consummated. God sends the angel Raphael, disguised as a human, to heal Tobit and to free Sarah from the demon. The main narrative is dedicated to Tobit's son, Tobiah or Tobiyah (Greek: Τωβίας/ Tobias), who is sent by his father to collect a sum of money that the latter had deposited some time previously in the far off land of Media. Raphael represents himself as Tobit's kinsman Azariah, and offers to aid and protect Tobias on his journey. Under the guidance of Raphael, Tobias makes the journey to Media, accompanied by his dog. Along the way, he is attacked by a giant fish, whose heart, liver and gall bladder are removed to make medicines. Upon arriving in Media, Raphael tells Tobias of the beautiful Sarah, whom Tobias has the right to marry, because she is related to his tribe. He instructs the young man to burn the fish's liver and heart to drive away the demon when he attacks on the wedding night. The two are married, and the fumes of the burning organs drive the demon away to Upper Egypt, while Raphael follows him and binds him. Meanwhile, Sarah's father has been digging a grave to secretly bury Tobias (who he assumes will be dead). Surprised to find his son-in-law alive and well, he orders a double-length wedding feast and has the grave secretly filled. Since he cannot leave because of the feast, Tobias sends Raphael to recover his father's money. After the feast, Tobias and Sarah return to Nineveh. There, Raphael tells the youth to use the fish's gall to cure his father's blindness. Raphael then reveals his true identity and returns to heaven. Tobit sings a hymn of praise. He tells his son to leave Nineveh before God destroys it according to prophecy. After the prayer, Tobit dies at an advanced age.[2] After burying his father, Tobias returns to Media with his family.

Is Castiel an angel in the Bible?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There are only three angels named in the Bible: The archangels Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael, so no, Castiel is not an angel mentioned in the Bible.

More about Castiel: Castiel is a fictional character on the television series Supernatural. If the producers Kripke and Singer got their inspiration for him from anywhere in particular, they seem to be rather quiet on the matter. His name does not appear in the Bible or other Judeo-Christian writings. Although his name is theophoric, that is it embeds one of the many names of God, "El," the name Castiel does not have scriptural roots.

While there are only three angels mentioned in the Bible, there are multiple mentions of demonic names and most of the information we have surrounding such beings as angels and demons come from other spiritual writings from Judaism and Islam. The demon Azazel, another thorphoric name ("Azaz" means "rugged" or "rough" in several Aramaic dialects), has appeared as a character in at least one other production besides Supernatural; he is featured in the movie Fallen with Denzel Washington and John Goodman.

Additional Comments:

Though not mentioned in the Bible, Cassiel is the Latin name of an archangel in post-biblical Judeo-Christian religion, particularly that of the Kabbalah. Unlike many other angels, Cassiel is known for simply watching the events of the cosmos unfold with little interference. He is the angel of solitude and tears, and is said to preside over the deaths of kings. He is often included in lists as being one of the seven archangels and often associated with the Seventh Heaven.

In Jewish mysticism and Mesopotamian mythology, Cassiel is associated with the planet Saturn, the day of the week Thursday, and the direction north. He is the controller of the moon.

In the magical text Berit Menuchah, Cassiel is associated with Kefitzat Haderech, the ability to travel quickly through space. Magic spells using his name are cast to create destruction, to scatter crowds, to cause a person to wander aimlessly, or to fall from a position of power.

Ancient Hebrew amulets bearing his name are used to drive away one's enemies. The words on the charm are written with the blood of a bird and then tied to the foot of a dove. The dove is then set to flight, taking one's enemy with it. Should the bird refuse to fly, it is a sign that one's enemies won't depart either.

The only angels named in the Bible are Michael, Gabriel and of course Satan or Lucifer the chief fallen angel. No other names are given. There are a few other named angels in apocryphal books like the Book of Enoch. Beyond that you go off into totally unscriptural waters.

Do angels have souls?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Of course Angels have souls. Or they have souls in the sense that they have morals and ethics. They live with God and apparently God- nor Jesus for that matter -have killed out of hatred or spite. In my books, having a soul means having a sense of right or wrong. Being soulless means that you feel no remorse or passion even. No feeling. Like vampires. And honestly, Angels are the farthest thing from. I hope that answers your question. :)
