rulers, authorities and cosmic powers governing this darkness, against the

Make sure that you put on the whole armor of God (Ephesians 6:11) before you
open the attachment and look at AZAZEL the embodiment of evil.

The story of how I, Stephen Yulish, drew this image is nothing short of
miraculous.This horrifying specter became the inspiration for the main
character of Azazel in both of my novels, "The Great Harpazo Deception" and
"Invasion:Israel" but I have never before explained how I obtained this image
of what I believe to be a fallen demonic angel. Now you can read the rest of
the story for the first time.
Over twenty years ago in 1983, I was the State Director of the Jewish National
Fund. Since leaving the University of Arizona the year before, I had turned my
career path from being a Professor to being a fundraiser for Israel. The
common thread that ran through both pursuits was my interest in Jewish
mysticism, Kabbalah. I had obtained an multivolumne English translation of the
Zohar and had read it through several times. I medicated, sought universal
knowledge(gnosis), studied astrology, reincarnation (Gilgul) and spirit
guides. In 1978, I had written a new age novel, "The Other World", which
glorified Satan and his mate Lilith. That novel had bounced around publishers
in New York for years(never published). I had even read a portion of it to a
group of people in a loft in Greenwich village. Boy was I cool. Boy was I lost
and perishing!
Suddenly one day in 1983 as I sat at my desk at the JNF, I found myself
doodling on a piece of paper. Over the next few months I "drew" scores of
drawings like the one attached above. I have no artistic ability but these
drawings were elaborate. I went and showed them to my friends Rabbi Plotkin
and Rabbi Rebbibo and they both were very impressed. They both encouraged me
to publish them. They both also loved Kabbalah and believed that these
drawings were from the yenne velt, Yiddish for the other world. I did get them
published in a University of California Journal, Draemworks, vol.4, no.3, 1984
pg. 180-181 which you have attached as well as in Kaballistic journal. This
drawing still appears under my name in amazon.com?! It says out of print but
has an ASIN number and says Human Sciences Press, 1984? But that is only part
of this ongoing story.
The article says
"An Excursion into the Yenne Velt"  Stephen Malcolm(sue me) Yulish

"There are many worlds that intersect our own "reality normal waking
consciousness. We encounter these worlds for brief moments while asleep or in
altered states of awareness, and then spend a great deal of time denying
either their existence or their validity. Of course, they do not need our
acceptance to exist, and so they are there no matter what we choose to
believe.
I have always paid a great deal of attention to states of consciousness other
than normal waking reality. My dreams, especially, have provided me with a
wellspring of creative imagery that connects me with my inner self as well as
with my other self. Dreams are not only mirrors for our psyche, but also
looking glasses into worlds that dont often see the light of day, yet are part
of us all.
The images that I have transported to this reality by way of pen and ink
drawings were done so in a state of waking dream. I was not asleep in the
ordinary usage of the term, but my body was still and my mind was quiet. I
have made use of dream images in my poetry and other writings, but I have
never drawn anything like the images you see here. One day last year, I
decided to pick up a pen and draw. I had no idea what I was drawing until it
was completed.
These are images from the other world-the Yenne Velt"
 

While I accepted the Lord Jesus as my Lord and Savior a few years later in
October of 1988 (isn't God's amazing grace wonderful?), I was still not
walking with Him. In January of 1990, I was talking to my future wife Paula
(isn't God's amazing grace wonderful!) about hell one day. While I knew that
God was real because of my revelation conversion experience, I still was not
convinced of the absolute reality of Satan and His dominions. Probably because
I had served them for so long and was in denial. Anyway, Paula, bless her
heart, told me to get rid of my novel, "The Other World" as well as my
channeled drawings because they were demonic. I had showed both to her before
I was saved and while she had recoiled in disgust then,she still married me
two months later. That night, I had a dream where I was holding my novel. I
had said, 'if there are any demons in here let them come out!' Well I was
bombarded by demonic forces that pummeled me until I honestly thought that I
would die. I summoned up my last ounce of strength and yelled, 'I rebuke you
in the name of Jesus!' They all disappeared. The next day I destroyed my novel
and all of my drawings.
Five years later the Lord told me to write a story about UFOs and the rapture.
He layed on my heart that the sudden disappearance of millions of Christians
would be explained to those left behind as an abduction by UFOs. He told me
that these so called aliens are really fallen angels who are working with
Satan to deceive the masses. I wrote a spec treatment for the then popular
X-Files TV show entilted "The Catching Away". I sent it off to Producer Chris
Carter on  May 30, 1995. On September 7, I received a letter from his
assistant Kitty Brophy that they had reviewed it but they were unable to use
it. Kitty then then said "We appreciate the opportunity to get acquainted with
your writing and wish you the best of luck in your future efforts."
It was not surprising that they did not want to use a religious theme but they
did not return the manuscript? Then nearly a year later on July 9, 1996, I
received a letter from the senior counsel at 20th century Fox, Anatole
Klebanow,telling me that it was their policy not to read any unsolicited
manuscripts and they were returning it to me "unread". I thought, Ms.Brophy,
had said a year before that they enjoyed the opportunity to get acquainted
with my writing. Oh well.
I then decided that I might have something here and so I began to write a
novel with new characters surrounding this concept of the rapture (gr.Harpazo)
being explained as an abduction by UFOs which became "The Great Harpazo
Deception". But what about Azazel?
Around that time circa 1996-1997, I received the image above from a member of
the Flagstaff community who had followed my letters to the editor for years
and was not impressed. He sent me the article attached with the note, 'I
thought that you were a Christian?'
I used the demonic image attached as the image for my chararcter Azazel, the
fallen demonic angel, in my novel. What I(Satan) had meant for evil, God used
for good. Not that Azazel was good by any means, but my novels "The Great
Harpazo Deception" and "Invasion:Israel" both reveal the evil nature of his
fallen angel. The novels shed light on the darkside, the hidden shadows of
evil.
Now you kinow the rest of the story behind Azazel and should be once again
amazed at the loving grace and mercy that God showed for this lost and
perishing Jew.
