The archangel Raphael (Metatron-Enoch) was, according to Milik, charged by God to bind Asael (or 'Azazel': Satan, the "ultimate" fallen angel and divulger of God's holy Secrets and heavenly Mysteries, whom the others worshipped) hand and foot, and to heal the earth which the fallen angels had corrupted (the name 'Raphael' "means" 'God heals'; Asael is confronted by Raphael at 1 En 10:4-8 and by Enoch, as clearly 'both' are charged with the same mission, at 13:2). Milik notes the word-play on the double meaning of the verb "rafa" 'to tie' and 'to heal.' Reflecting upon God's decree in rejecting the fallen angels' petition, Milik says that "the Watchers seem to be "already" chained up by the [for in order to be able to pray, to lift their arms in the gesture of suppliants, they have to have their bonds loosened" — that is, "spiritually", if they will, through repentance (a genuine yearning for which, however, they appear to be 'past feeling' 4:19, and it is this stark reality of which Heaven is all too aware).
