Ananiel, Anânêl (Aramaic: עננאל, Greek: Ανανθνά) was the 14th Watcher of the 20 leaders of the 200 fallen angels that are mentioned in an ancient work called the Book of Enoch. The name means "Rain of God" even though his name is often confused with Hananiel. Michael Knibb[1] believes his name to be "cloud of god".
