Scapegoat or God strengthens
In Hebrew tradition, Azazel is a name associated with the ritual of the scapegoat in the Book of Leviticus. It is often interpreted as 'the goat that departs' or as the name of a fallen angel in later apocryphal texts. In modern contexts, it carries a dark, mysterious, and powerful aura.
