Zadkiel (Hebrew: צִדְקִיאֵל Ṣīḏqīʾēl, 'God is my Righteousness'), also known as Hasdiel,[a] is an archangel in Jewish and Christian angelology.
As an angel of mercy, some texts claim that Zadkiel is the unnamed biblical Angel of the Lord who holds back Abraham to prevent the patriarch from sacrificing his son, Isaac.
Because of this, he is usually shown holding a dagger.
[3] In Jewish mysticism and Christian Kabbalah, Zadkiel is associated with the classical planet Jupiter.
[4] The angel's position in the sephirot is fourth, which corresponds to Chesed "Kindness".
