Lelahel

The angel whose name means “the praiseworthy God” — whose office is healing of the body, the granting of love, the giving of true renown.

Lelahel is the 6th of the seventy-two angels of the Shem HaMephorash — the divided Name of God, drawn from the three verses of seventy-two letters each in Exodus 14:19–21. The name Lelahel means the praiseworthy God. The angel’s office is healing of the body, the granting of love, the giving of true renown.

A note on this material

The seventy-two Shem HaMephorash angels are the angelic counterpart to the seventy-two demons catalogued in the Lesser Key of Solomon. Each Shem angel countermands a specific Goetia spirit. The site presents these as a defensive catalogue: the reader who recognises the pattern of the demon’s office is given the name of the angel who answers it.

The office Lelahel holds

The tradition assigns to Lelahel the office of healing of the body, the granting of love, the giving of true renown. The reader who has seen the corresponding pattern in modern life — healing of the body, the granting of love, the giving of true renown — calls on Lelahel by name. The call is not a request for spectacular intervention. The call is the older grammar’s way of placing the matter in the keeping of the angel whose office it is.

Call on Lelahel when the pattern of healing of the body, the granting of love, the giving of true renown has touched your life and the natural remedies have not been sufficient.

The psalm verse

Each of the seventy-two Shem angels is paired with a psalm verse the tradition assigns as the angel’s standing prayer. The verse for Lelahel is:

“Sing praises to the Lord, who dwells in Zion! Tell among the peoples his deeds!” Psalm 9:11

The verse is the standing call. Speak it, or write it, or hold it silently — it is the form the tradition gives for placing the matter under Lelahel’s office.

The Goetia pair

In the countermanding tradition, Lelahel stands against the Goetia spirit Valefor — the 6th spirit of the Lesser Key of Solomon. Where Valefor’s recorded domain has touched a reader’s life, the answer the tradition prescribes is not engagement with the spirit. The answer is Lelahel.

How the tradition prescribes the call

  1. Name the pattern. Write down, clearly, the specific way you suspect the influence is operating. Vague suspicion gives the influence cover.
  2. Call on Lelahel by name. Speak or write the call. Do not address the countermanded spirit directly.
  3. Recite the psalm verse. Psalm 9:11 is the standing prayer assigned to Lelahel. Read aloud where possible, in the morning hour.
  4. Carry the paired stone. Clear Quartz is the stone the tradition pairs with Lelahel’s choir, the Seraphim. Worn near the throat or carried in the pocket for the duration.
  5. Repeat for forty days. The tradition is consistent on this duration — long enough to break a settled pattern.
