    The Archangel Series

    Jay French Presents...

    Zadkiel The Mercy of God


    The angel of freedom, benevolence, mercy and the patron angel of all who forgive. It was he who stayed
    Abraham’s hand from sacrificing his son, Jacob, and thus he still carries the dagger. He is considered to be
    the chief of the dominations (or dominions), and he bears the “Seat of the Soul” chakra (or Sacral chakra).
    Zadkiel along with Jophiel are Michael’s bearers, or seconds, in battle.
    When reproducing the Seal of Archangel Zadkiel (in Illustrator), I decided it would look nice to have the
    actual words in “Symbol” font, which is essentially Greek. However, when I used portions of the imagery on
    the seals and words on the actual illustrations, I translated these words into the “Celestial” version of “Angelic
    Script”, found in Hebrew mysticism. According to my research (which although it was vast, is not foolproof),
    here are the translations of what I believe to be the Hebrew words on the seal:
    ZADKIEL ZADKIEL Means: “Righteousness of God”
    AGIOS AGIOS A name of God
    SADAY SADAY Armies of Heaven
    ELION ELION To be Allowed
    ADONAY ADONAY “The Lord”
    About The Series
    Based on a combination of Christian, Judaic & Islamic legends & history, I was inspired to render these mysterious creatures in their more mysteri-
    ous and dramatic light. All too often angels are depicted as “cute” or “docile”, and I wanted a view of the warriors, the secret-keepers, the guides
    and messengers. Of course, this does fall under my basic love of archetypes, but my methodology reflected my thoughts to some degree, in that
    I wanted to capture the timeless conundrum of the angel concept. The particular class of Archangels seemed the best route for this thought, as
    most people are familiar with the big names, Michael and Gabriel. Along with Raphael, these are the only three angels mentioned by names in the
    Bible. I ended up with two distinct lists of what were classified as Archangels, one was a group of seven angels who stood before God, the second,
    a list of 15 (with several of the same names), was more divided by their jobs and personalities. I decided a series of seven would be quicker, though
    I better conceptualized the bigger list. Therefore I decided to produce the series in two phases, the first is the standard list of seven Archangels.
    Phase II will be the “complete” list of all 15 (the remaining six).
    The medium for these pieces, which I decided on almost as soon as I started considering the project, is somewhat peculiar. They are rendered as
    fairly detailed pencil drawings, scanned & altered in Photoshop (mostly just the glow effect), then I add the Angelic Seal in the background and
    print it in dull brown ink on parchment paper. The result is a nice “ancient-scroll” impression which is very appropriate. The seals and “signatures”
    are used in elements of the image, as well as Celestial Angelic Script translations of their names and representations.
    Below is an outline of the series, as planned, based on the research and my interpretations. Enjoy!
