Megalak

Megalak: According to Mathers in his 1898 translation of the Sacred Magic of Abramelin the Mage, the name of this demon comes from a Hebrew term meaning “cutting off.” He is said to serve the infernal rulers Magoth and Kore, although Kore’s status as a demon is questionable. In the edition of Abramelin published in Cologne by Peter Hammer, this name is rendered Magalech.
