Zerachiel

"Zerachiel" ("God's command") also known as "Zahariel" or "Saraqael" is one of the primary angels who leads souls to judgement. An Angel of Healing, he is also the presiding angel of the sun, prince of ministering angels (those who watch over mortals), and the angel of children, particularly children of parents who have sinned (and are therefore at risk of falling into sin as adults themselves). He is said to have dominion over the earth. In Enoch I (the Book of Enoch) (Chapter 20) he is listed as one of the seven holy angels who watch; the angel who is set over the spirits who sin in the spirit. In the list of Pope Gregory I, one of the seven archangels is called Zachariel. [1]
