Ramiel
Chief of tens1 Enoch 6
Chief of thunder
Sixth chief of tens. Distinct here from Rameel of the night. 1 Enoch 20 lists a holy Remiel over those who rise; apocalypses also know a Ramiel who oversees true vision. The fallen office is the counterfeit of that voice: thunder used as pedagogy and as a lie.
Also named Ramlel, Remiel, Rumael.
- Etymology
- “Thunder of God” (raʿam + ʾel).

What was taught
Ramiel taught thunder as speech: how to hear a message in the crack, how to time a terror to a cloud, how to make a human take noise for revelation.
