Why do some Angels have an EL at the end of their name

I’ve worked with Angels in the past but this never really occurred to me.

Why do angels or at least some of them have an EL at the end of their name?

Even some Daemons like Azazel have an el?
Why?

El loosely translated means " of god" like Samael means “poison of god” if I remember correctly

My findings so far, don’t take them as absolute though: Hoover, Jacuzzi, Photoshop - El? And Other Trademarked Godnames.

That Elohim name really bothers me.

So there are other ways of pronouncing angelic names right?
Like taking out the EL and adding aeheh?

That’s what they told me, though this is also relevant of course:

Hogging sacred syllable that way fits with my own UPG of the troll god, and also with what @anon31277086 describes there.

It all, also, fits with the experience I had smashing the core of it, and liberating energies afterwards: My 9/11 Work - Part 1.

People may continue to generate a mini-lampshade (to use Sultitan_Itan’s metaphor) by using the forms of worship, but “Team Ascent” forces are active in slowly changing things so that no more payments get made into its accounts, so to speak. :thinking:

Here’s my take on it. The Abrahamic systems basically have convoluted Elohim with Yaweh. Essentially they want you to think Yaweh is the Elohim, when in actuality I do not believe it to be so. Elohim basically means the ultimate creator god or source or origin of all, what some call zero, most likely existing outside of our sphere or the entity known as Yaweh’s. It is just another deific name that has been bastardized by the Abrahamic traditions.

Elohim is shortened to El in many cases, especially in names of Hebrew origin. It’s basically an addendum to the name that means ‘of Elohim’, kind of like the addendum ‘son’ on many European names. Samuel, Rachel, etc.

Now consider this. Azazel. Raphael. Michael. Samael. All with the addendum El. If you consider these beings to embody different energetic aspects of the ultimate source, and you make sure you note the difference between the elohim of the Abrahamic cults and the actual Elohim, it is not such a far stretch, is it? It is actually quite fitting.

So think of names like Azazel or Michael as meaning “this aspect of source” or “that aspect of source”. Nothing sinister, lol.

Then Why did Melchizedek partake in the body and blood with Abraham and bless him. Then Abraham blessed him back with a tenth of everything he owned. Yaweh, and Jesus (Yeshua), or YAHUAH and YAHUSHA Father and Son in ONE! Those who have eyes to see let them see. It took me a while to see also, and I was just like you, but now I see. Most High new Abraham was going to mess up big and blessed him anyway. Then Made a covenant with him in the desert were darkness fell upon him because Most High YAHUAH new how dark it would get because of his betrayal, but HIS Son has set us free indeed. The animals that were cut in half represent the three religions of that place that are not truth except one and the Dove was Left whole.

Many have already pointed out the religious background of EL. You see it in a lot of religious names from the region (not just the ones that are also a traditional angel name).

Then many of the 72 Angels have names ending in “iah”.

Some of the angels of omnipotence have names ending in lu, such as Tabatlu, Bualu, Tulatu, etc.
Although I don’t know of an established connection, these names always reminded me of a couple of Sumerian wind deities (Pazuzu, Lamashtu).

I think its important to consider that the term ‘angel’ isn’t a universal taxonomic categorisation. Different entities (some perhaps real others perhaps imagined), notions and egregores tend to be shoved into various artificial taxonomies.
For comparison, take the term “demon”. Christian traditions have taken all sorts of things and blanket shoved them under this umbrella term.

Etymology isn’t my specialty, but as I understand it, the term “Angel” is a truncation of Angelus which if I gather meant “messenger” (or similar). Some of what we now call angels were referred to as Malachim in hebrew texts (which I believe also means messenger). So entirely possibly that the quick generic term ‘messenger’ was just translated and then truncated and boom like that a new taxonomic term.

So I sort of see the term ‘angel’ as being an artificial category with a lot of different stuff from various traditions shoved into it.

Angel names are verbs or descriptors, some of which are derived from Godnames. the -El suffix gives them the powers of Severity, while the -Iah suffix gives them the powers of Mercy.

Example: Godname: El Gibor (Lord of Power)
Sephirah: Geburah (Power)
Archangel name: Geburah + El = Gabriel (Power of El)

Example: Godname: YHVH Rapha (YHVH who Heals)
Sephirah: Hod (some say Tiphereth). Both translate to Splendor
Archangel name: Rapha + El = Raphael (El who Heals)

El means Lord and is a shortened form of Ba’al from the Ugarit.

Yah is a short form of YHVH which is a mask for Heh, the Egyptian/Kemetic god of Air in the Ogdoad of Hermopolis.

There are different suffixes in different cultures. For example, -eos or -ah in Greek, or -is/-es, -er, -u, or -an/-un/-on in Egyptian.

Middle Eastern spirits change teams all the time, just like sports athletes. The Gods are their team owners.
