Is Azazel a Demon?

Aaron shall present the goat on which the lot fell for the Lord and use it for a sin offering. The other is going to be, as we see here in verse 10, sent away into the wilderness to Azazel. So this is where we get the phrase scapegoat. And you'll notice how verse 11 really restates in a way what we had seen back up in verse 6. It's like the sword of the cherubim standing guard at the garden of Eden falls down on that sacrifice.
