Elijah (Greek- Elias ”my God is Jehovah”) In the Old Testament, 2 Hebrew patriarchs were translated to Heaven while they were still in the flesh: God ‘took’ Enoch (Genesis 5); Elijah was transported in a fiery chariot (II Kings 2:11). Enoch was transformed into the angel Metatron; Elijah into Sandalphon (although there is a legend that Elijah was an angel from the very beginning: ”one of the greatest and mightiest of the fiery angel host”). Another legend relates that Elijah fought the angel of death, subdued him, and would have annihilated him but for the intervention of God (Who had further use for this particular angel of death). In Talmud there is a similar tale relating to Moses’ encounter with an angel of death—in fact with several of them. Malachi 4:5 prophecies that Elijah would be the forerunner of the Messiah. In Luke, Elijah appears with Moses on the Mount of Transfiguration, in conversation with Jesus. In Heaven, according to Pirke Rabbi Eliezer, Elijah is the ”psycho pomp whose duty is to stand at the crossways of Paradise and guide the pious to their appointed places.” The Hasidic Rabbi Elimelekh of Lizhensk referred to Elijah after his transfiguration as the ”Angel of the Covenant”. In Jewish homes, at Passover festivals, the cup of Elijah is filled with wine, and a place is left vacant at the seder for him, ”the expected guest.” Blake, in his Marriage of Heaven and Hell, pictures Elijah as a composite devil and angel. ”I beheld the Angel who stretched out his arms embracing the flame of fire, and he was consumed and arose as Elijah.” Elilaios In gnosticism, he is one of seven archons residing in the 6th Heaven. Elim ”trees”; in Hebrew, ”mighty ones” The guardian angel of Libbeus the Apostle.

Elion is an angel invoked in the conjuration of the Reed, and also a ministering angel. By invoking Elion, Moses was able to bring down hail on Egypt at the time of the plagues. He is also the deity of Melchizedek whom Abraham is represented to have identified with Yahweh. (Genesis 14, 18, 19, 22) Eloai Listed by Origen as one of the seven archons in the Ophitic system.

Enoch-Metatron The patriarch Enoch, on his translation to Heaven (Genesis 5:24), became Metatron, one of the greatest of the hierarchs, ”king over all the angels”. (Compare with the Assyrian legend in the Epic of Izdubar.) On earth, as a mortal Enoch is said to have composed 366 books (the Enoch literature). Legend has it that Enoch-Metatron is twin brother to Sandalphon; that when he was glorified he was given 365,000 eyes and 36 pairs of wings. The spectacular mode of Elijah’s conveyance to Heaven (II Kings 2) had an earlier parallel in the case of Enoch, for the latter also was whisked away ”in a fiery chariot drawn by fiery chargers,” as related in The Legends of the Jews I, 130; but a few pages further on (page 138) it is revealed that it wasn’t a horse or a team of horses, but an angel (Anpiel) who transported the patriarch from earth to Heaven. But they may have been different journeys. To the Arabs, Enoch was Idris (Koran, sura 19, 56). In the Pirke Rabbi Eliezer the invention of astronomy and arithmetic is credited to Enoch.
