--------------- MESSAGE urth.v026.n001.9 --------------- From: "Ori Kowarsky" <orik at sprint.ca> Christoper R. Culver wrote: "I think that the "judge" version of Tzadkiel, analogous to the Archangel Michael, would be certainly be divine. Whether of not he receives communication directly from the Pancreator is one of the more interesting mysteries of Urth." I do not blieve that Tzad is remotely connected to the Archangel Michael, in either motive or substance. If he comes off like an angel on the Day of Jugement this is a carefully orchestated effect, done for the benefit of Sev and his personal, shall we say, demons.

Now wait a sec here. 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

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.
