He is the archangel in charge of health and physical and emotional healing.
(Hebrew: ×ØÖøפÖøאֵל, RāpĢ„āŹ¾Ä“l, "he whom God heals"; Ancient Greek: įæ¬αφαĪ®λ, Raphaįø—l; Coptic: ā²£ā²ā²«ā²ā²ā²—, Rafaêl; Arabic: Ų±ŁŲ§Ų¦ŁŠŁ„‎, Rafā’Ä«l, or Ų„Ų³Ų±Ų§ŁŁŠŁ„, IsrāfÄ«l; Amharic: įˆ©į‹įŠ¤įˆ, RufaŹ¾el) is the archangel responsible for healing in most Abrahamic religions. However, not all religions consider Raphael's identification to be canonical.

In Christianity, Raphael is generally associated with an unnamed angel from the Gospel of John, who maintains the healing waters of the pool of Bethesda, although he is one of the main figures in the Book of Tobit, accepted as canonical by Catholics and Orthodox. . He is one of the three patron saints of the pilgrim. Likewise, he is recognized as an angel in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as he is briefly mentioned in the Doctrine and Covenants.ā€‹
