Sefer Raziel Hamalakh3/26/2021
The Liber Razielis Archangeli, its 13th-century Latin translation produced under Alfonso X, survives.Like other obscure ancient texts such as the Bahir and Sefer Yetzirah, the work has been extant in a number of versions.The title itself is mentioned in another magical work of late antiquity, The Sword of Moses.Critical historians regard it as a medieval work, most probably originating among the Ashkenazi Hasidim, as citations from it begin to appear only in the 13th century.
The likely compiler of the medieval version is Eleazar of Worms, as Sefer Galei Razia, which developed to what we have now as Sefer Raziel HaMalakh, including more writings written by people of various theological opinions. The printed version of Sefer Raziel is divided into five books, some of it in the form of a mystical midrash on Creation. It features an elaborate angelology, magical uses of the zodiac, gematria, names of God, protective spells, and a method of writing magical healing amulets. Raziel was sent to earth with specific purpose to teach Adam and Abraham the ways of Nature. The Book of Raziel explains everything from astrology of the planets in our solar system, and explains how the creative life energy starts with a thought from the spiritual realms, transcending into speech and action in this physical world.
