Barachiel (Hebrew: בַּרַכְאֵל Baraḵʾēl, "God has blessed"), also known as Barakel, is one of the Archangels in Judaism, as well as Byzantine Catholic and Eastern Orthodox tradition. He is the Archangel of Blessings.
In the Third Book of Enoch, he is described as one of the angelic princes, with a myriad of some ministering angels attending him. He is described in the Almadel of Solomon as one of the chief angels of the first and fourth chora. In Jewish tradition, he is often associated with blessings, the planet Jupiter, and the Sephirah of Chesed.
