1424 Azazel ENT_ISR_AZAZEL received_as Iblis ENT_ISL_IBLIS medium Islamic tafsir tradition identifies Iblis's pre-fall name as "Azazil" — directly cognate with the Hebrew Azazel (Leviticus 16:8-10, the scapegoat demon of the wilderness). The identification appears in major commentators including al-Tabari and Ibn Kathir, who record that Iblis was called Azazil before he refused to bow to Adam. The Azazel→Iblis chain transmits the wilderness demon / expelled divine being tradition rather than the Satanic accuser tradition; both converge in the Quranic Iblis figure.

1450 Azazel ENT_ISR_AZAZEL received_as Samael ENT_GNO_SAMAEL medium Samael in Jewish tradition draws substantially from the Azazel archetype: an angelic being who was expelled or degraded from the divine realm and associated with the wilderness/demonic sphere. The Zohar identifies Samael with the serpent of Eden; pseudepigraphical literature (2 Enoch, the Apocalypse of Abraham) conflates Azazel and Samael as names for the same adversarial angel. DDD_BIBLE s.v. "Samael" documents the convergence. The expelled-angel dimension of Samael comes primarily from the Azazel tradition.
