In Mandaeism, Ṣaureil, also spelled Ṣauriel or Ṣaurʿil (Classical Mandaic: ࡑࡀࡅࡓࡏࡉࡋ), is the angel of death.
Ṣaureil features prominently in Book 1 of the Left Ginza as the angel who announces the message of death to Adam and Shitil (Seth).
[1] Ṣaureil is also an epithet for the Moon (Sen).
[2] He is also known as Ṣaureil Qmamir Ziwa (Classical Mandaic: ࡑࡀࡅࡓࡏࡉࡋ ࡒࡌࡀࡌࡉࡓ ࡆࡉࡅࡀ; or Qamamir-Ziwa[2]) in Book 1 of the Left Ginza.
According to the Left Ginza, he is called "Death" in the world, but as Kushta ("Truth") to those who know of Ṣaureil's true heavenly nature.
