Tzadkiel is not Michael but s/he certainly is an angel, not an archangel like Michael, but a sufficiently great and important being for Urth/Ushas. S/he is the Angel of Divine Justice. (My info comes from Gustav Davidson's -A Dictionary of Angels-, Free Press 1967, which is not one of those idiotic gift-books of angels, but a scholarly work). I don't have the book to hand, so cannot tell you more, but I do have a xerox of the list of the 30 top angels (and the 103 fallen angels). -alga ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Jack Lyons — 23 Apr 1999, 10:14 follows, by subject match Alice Turner On Fri, 23 Apr 1999, Alice Turner wrote: :Now wait a sec here.

Tzadkeiel (acknowledging that this is fiction) is not a supernatural being. :(My info comes from Gustav Davidson's -A Dictionary of :Angels-, Free Press 1967, which is not one of those idiotic :gift-books of angels, but a scholarly work). A scholarly work on supernatural beings? I contend that F. Murray Abraham is an angel. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
