Camael

Camael

Camael (Latin Camael), Means one who seeks God. (also known as Kamuel, Chamuel, Camiel, Camniel) is an angel in Judeo-Christian mythology and angelology, and is often included in lists as being one of the seven archangels. He is claimed to be the leader of the forces that expelled Adam from the Garden of Eden. Camael is not recognised by the Catholic Church due to the Vatican's decision to ban the veneration of angels not mentioned in the Bible Camael is an angel who revanges the light, also war-like and punishes those who are against God. Also known as an angel of Love, he is covered with fire.[1]
