Where Mishael appears in Scripture
וּבְנֵי עֻזִּיאֵל מִֽישָׁאֵל וְאֶלְצָפָן וְסִתְרִֽי׃
And the sons of Uzziel; Mishael, and Elzaphan, and Zithri.
וַיִּקְרָא מֹשֶׁה אֶל-מִֽישָׁאֵל וְאֶל אֶלְצָפָן בְּנֵי עֻזִּיאֵל דֹּד אַֽהֲרֹן וַיֹּאמֶר אֲלֵהֶם קִרְבוּ שְׂאוּ אֶת-אֲחֵיכֶם מֵאֵת פְּנֵֽי-הַקֹּדֶשׁ אֶל-מִחוּץ לַֽמַּחֲנֶֽה׃
And Moses called Mishael and Elzaphan, the sons of Uzziel the uncle of Aaron, and said unto them, Come near, carry your brethren from before the sanctuary out of the camp.
וַֽיַּעֲמֹד עֶזְרָא הַסֹּפֵר עַֽל-מִגְדַּל-עֵץ אֲשֶׁר עָשׂוּ לַדָּבָר וַיַּֽעֲמֹד אֶצְלוֹ מַתִּתְיָה וְשֶׁמַע וַֽעֲנָיָה וְאֽוּרִיָּה וְחִלְקִיָּה וּמַֽעֲשֵׂיָה עַל-יְמִינוֹ וּמִשְּׂמֹאלוֹ פְּדָיָה וּמִֽישָׁאֵל וּמַלְכִּיָּה וְחָשֻׁם וְחַשְׁבַּדָּנָה זְכַרְיָה מְשֻׁלָּֽם׃
And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose; and beside him stood Mattithiah, and Shema, and Anaiah, and Urijah, and Hilkiah, and Maaseiah, on his right hand; and on his left hand, Pedaiah, and Mishael, and Malchiah, and Hashum, and Hashbadana, Zechariah, and Meshullam.
וַיְהִי בָהֶם מִבְּנֵי יְהוּדָה דָּנִיֵּאל חֲנַנְיָה מִֽישָׁאֵל וַעֲזַרְיָֽה׃
Now among these were of the children of Judah, Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah:
וַיָּשֶׂם לָהֶם שַׂר הַסָּרִיסִים שֵׁמוֹת וַיָּשֶׂם לְדָֽנִיֵּאל בֵּלְטְשַׁאצַּר וְלַֽחֲנַנְיָה שַׁדְרַךְ וּלְמִֽישָׁאֵל מֵישַׁךְ וְלַעֲזַרְיָה עֲבֵד נְגֽוֹ׃
Unto whom the prince of the eunuchs gave names: for he gave unto Daniel the name of Belteshazzar; and to Hananiah, of Shadrach; and to Mishael, of Meshach; and to Azariah, of Abed-nego.
וַיֹּאמֶר דָּנִיֵּאל אֶל-הַמֶּלְצַר אֲשֶׁר מִנָּה שַׂר הַסָּֽרִיסִים עַל-דָּנִיֵּאל חֲנַנְיָה מִֽישָׁאֵל וַעֲזַרְיָֽה׃
Then said Daniel to Melzar, whom the prince of the eunuchs had set over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah,
וַיְדַבֵּר אִתָּם הַמֶּלֶךְ וְלֹא נִמְצָא מִכֻּלָּם כְּדָנִיֵּאל חֲנַנְיָה מִֽישָׁאֵל וַעֲזַרְיָה וַיַּֽעַמְדוּ לִפְנֵי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃
And the king communed with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stood they before the king.
