Barzabel is listed in the second of [[Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa|Agrippa]]'s ''[[Three Books of Occult Philosophy]]'' (1533) as a spirit of Mars under the [[angel]] [[Graphiel]]. ''MS Harley 6482'', published more recently as ''A Treatise of Angel Magic'', from an older document by [[Thomas Rudd]] (1583-1656) around 1699 also features the spirit. This was in turn copied by [[John Heydon]] in his book ''[[Theomagia]]'' (1663). In 1910, [[Aleister Crowley]] wrote the ''Bartzabel Working'', also referred to as ''Liber CCCXXV''. He also wrote ''Liber Gaias XCVI'' which drew heavily from ''Theomagia'', also featuring Barzabel as a martian spirit. | Barzabel is listed in the second of [[Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa|Agrippa]]'s ''[[Three Books of Occult Philosophy]]'' (1533) as a spirit of Mars under the [[angel]] [[Graphiel]].
