Best Answer

Azrael was a descendant of Manasseh (a king) and was taken into exile for worshiping false gods. So he was a man not an angel. In regards to the arch angel you will notice the term is always singular (never plural) and means principal, chief or leader. In Jude 9 he is identified as Michael. The Bible reveals at Revelation 12 :7, that Michael (jesus) is the leader of God's holy angels and is warring against the dragon (Satan) and his angels.

Why do some angels have black wings and others have white?

When an angel has black wings, it means that they are a "fallen angel". A fallen angel is an angel who has been exiled or banished from their realm. This makes them the "anti-angel". An angel with white wings is the opposite - they are the "good" and pure angels. :D Edit- many images of "fallen angels" portray them with leathery bat-like wings as opposed to feathered bird-like ones. Frequently you will find that black feathered wings denote an Archangel of death (Azrael or Michael for example), not fallen in the mythology at all- in fact they were created first, and are given the job requiring the greatest trust. The equation of white with purity and goodness is maybe a little flawed- it was after all used as an excuse for the maintenance of slavery ;)

Is Sepatiel is an archangel?

There is no angel named Sepatiel, the closest is Sepatael, which is a fallen angel of dischord in the halls governing the lower layers of the pit and who guards the fallen throne. The suffix -el means "of god" as one of the oldest names of God is "El" which means 'all things.' Sepati does mean seat, so Sepatiel would translate to literally "The seat of God."
