Raziel HaMalach [celebrated cornucopia of mystical texts and magical recipes].

The first section of this work, known as the Sepher HaMalbush, relates that soon after Adam was exiled from the Garden of Eden, he prayed to God with remorse over his fall from grace. Whereupon the Angel Raziel appeared in order to console Adam by imparting to him the wisdom of the Book of Raziel from which Adam’s descendants would be equipped to foretell their future. An intricate formula with complex instructions follows, indicating preliminary actions to be performed prior to studying the text. Included here are detailed spiritual laws of Nature, knowledge of the energy contained within the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet, the power of Man’s soul within the confines of physicality; in other words, how to harmonize physical and spiritual existence in this material world. In traditional circles it is broadly believed that possession of this book prevents one’s home from fire and also acts a protection for related negative matters.
