        The paper deals with the importance of the Old Testament Slavonic Pseudepigrapha as a source of cultural information that might have influenced contemporary thinking and culture. The evil character analysed in the article can be found in the two Old Testament Slavonic Pseudepigrapha: The Apocalypse of Abraham and 2 Enoch. The character’s name is Azazel, and it is widely known nowadays thanks to its echo in Bulgakov’s novel Master and Margarita, as well as in Akunin’s novel Azazel, which was translated into English under the title The Winter Queen. The paper explains how the character of Azazel is presented in the Old Testament Slavonic Pseudepigrapha, and it highlights the significant transformation of its role from one Old Slavonic text to the other. The paper also discusses the origin of the expression scapegoat in Russian.
        U članku se razmatra važnost slavenskih pseudepigrafa Staroga zavjeta kao izvora opsežnih kulturnih informacija koje su mogle utjecati na suvremeno razmišljanje i kulturu. Zli lik analiziran u članku pojavljuje se u dvama slavenskim pseudepigrafima Staroga zavjeta: Abrahamovoj apokalipsi i Henoku II. Ime lika je Azazel, a danas je nadaleko poznato po svojim odjecima u Bulgakovljevu romanu Majstor i Margarita i Akuninovu romanu Azazel, koji je preveden na engleski pod naslovom Zimska kraljica. U članku se objašnjava kako je lik Azazela predstavljen u staroslavenskim pseudepigrafima i kako se bitno mijenja njegova uloga u različitim staroslavenskim tekstovima. U članku se objašnjava podrijetlo izraza žrtveni jarac na ruskome jeziku.
