Castiel (Supernatural)
Castiel (; nicknamed "Cas") is a fictional character portrayed by Misha Collins on The CW's American fantasy television series ''Supernatural (American TV series), Supernatural''. An Angel of the Lord, he first appears in the fourth season and is used to introduce the theme of Christian theology to the series. In the series, Castiel brings Dean Winchester back from Hell and frequently helps him and his brother, Sam Winchester, Sam, in their battles with various demons and angels along the way.

Theophory In The Bible
Theophory is the practice of embedding the name of a god or a deity in, usually, a proper name. Much Hebrew theophory occurs in the Bible, particularly in the Old Testament (Hebrew Bible). The most prominent theophory involves names referring to: * El, a word meaning ''might'', ''power'' and (a) ''god'' in general, and hence in Judaism, ''God'' and among the Canaanites the name of the god who was the father of Baal. * Yah/Jah, a shortened form of Yahweh/Jahweh, the pronunciation of the Tetragrammaton‎ YHWH (יהוה). **They are also known as Yahveh/Jahveh and Yehovah/Jehovah. * Levantine deities (especially the storm god, Hadad) by the epithet '' baal'', meaning ''lord''. In later times, as the conflict between Yahwism and the more popular pagan practices became increasingly intense, these names were censored and ''baal'' was replaced with ''bosheth'', meaning "shame".

Cassiel ( ''Qaṣpīʾēl'', "God is my wrath")—also known as Kassiel, Qassiel, and other phonetic variations—is an angel appearing in extracanonical Jewish, Christian, and Islamic mystical and magical works, often as one of the Seven Archangels, the angel of Saturn, and in other roles. He is also known as Caftsiel and Captsiel ( ''Qap̄ṣīʾēl'', "God is my leap"; , '), among other phonetic translations and variations. In Jewish mystical literature Cassiel is invoked in an ancient Hebrew charm to tell if an enemy is running away. Gustav Davidson writes that Cassiel is described as the ruler of the seventh heaven in 3 Enoch, citing Odeberg's edition. However, Odeberg's edition only states in a footnote that Cassiel is "(one of) the guardian(s) of the door of the seventh Hall" in ''Hekhalot Rabbati''. In turn, Cassiel is described in ''Hekhalot Rabbati'' as a guardian of the ''sixth'' palace, armed with a lightning-dripping sword (which shouts "Ruin!") as well as a b ...
