It is not arbitrary. He makes no reference to the Book of Revelations.

@@jcsgodmother The second set of angels he mentioned were basically arbitrary terms from The Old Testament that the person who wrote The Celestial Hierarchy mentioned by Dionysus to refer to groups of angels that are never specified in The Bible. That's like the way some denominations today might have specific definitions for the differences between a pastor, a reverend, a minister, a bishop, a deacon, a preacher, an apostle, etc., but those definitions would not may not be biblical.

@@jakeleo4518​​⁠​⁠in this context the meaning of awesome may be like „ terrifying“. It includes the word „awe“ which also means „reverence“ so it is truly an old word

Bible only says *"Archangel"* it's not plural.

Oh yeah. I wasn't aware of this. There's the eagle of St. John, winged lion of St. Mark, and the winged ox of St. Luke. I'm not sure what's St. Matthew's symbol is though.

Oh you're right. St. Matthew is associated with a winged angelic man. 😮

Curiously, those are are the symbols of the fixed signs of the zodiac: Taurus the bull, Leo the lion, Scorpio (in its transcendent form) the eagle, and Aquarius the water-bearer man.

While I know that Catholics often pray through an intermediary such as a saint, I've often wondered do Catholics (and Orthodox for that matter), ever pray directly to God or is that seen as a bit presumptuous?

@@Dave_Sisson All prayers are directed to God. When using an intercessor you're simply praying with someone or some saint to God at the Same time. In 1 Timothy 2, St Paul asks to urge all to petion, prayer, and intercede and make thanksgiving for all people. The Church is the Body of Christ, Christ is the mediator between God and Mankind. The Church as a whole prays and intercedes for God.

@@haronsmith8974 Thanks. Other denominations interpret that passage as meaning (other) humans should pray with them. So for Catholics you can pray directly to God, but you can also get expert assistance from a saint or the collective entity of the Catholic church? Very interesting, thanks for explaining that.

@@Dave_Sisson Of course Catholics pray directly to God. That is clearly what the Lord's prayer is. They also ask others to pray for them. Basically, God formed the Communion of Saints and it is very powerful and Christians should use it for the purposes that it is created.

@@Dave_Sisson who says we don't?

No, you are exactly right. Satan was a Seraphim. He is only called a cherub in Ezekiel because "cherubim" means guardian, referring to a role. So he was simply that a guardian. Seraphim, on the other hand, refers to appearance; fiery serpents, and there's more than enough evidence in the Bible suggesting Satan has serpentine qualities. So a cherub (guardian) could be a seraph in apperance/quality and a seraph could be a cherub in duty. I believe the key area of confusion is in names given to the hierarchies (cherubim, seraphim). Instead of cherubim, a more suitable name for the hierarchy would be Chayot Ha Kodesh, otherwise known as the four living creatures. Their main function, being throne bearers of God's throne, in addition to being cherubs. It should be noted that while the seraphim may act as cherubs, the role of throne bearer belongs to the living creatures alone.

​@timothyeyo9245 both of you are wrong. no where in the bible does is say that the devil was a fallen angel.

He took this from the Kabbalah which is invented arround the Jewish Torah and according to Jewish people there is no such thing as fallen angels. Satan is an angel like all other who’s task is to make man sin. In the book of job satan pleaded with god that job was a good man. You need to learn the real books

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in the story of Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden, wasn't it implied that Satan eas the snake or serpent that convinced her to eat from the Apple, therefore forcing from that place? If he was a Seraphim and old-time scholars made this connection, perhaps Seraphim are depicted without serpentine forms because they don't want to emulate the first betrayer from among their ranks??

@nope4909 The devil and his angels are all fallen because they have sinned and are condemned. Just in the same way Man is fallen.

No, NEVER heard of them. This is the 1st time. Considering that I am often reading up about them for decades. Am extremely interested in them + read up as much as I can access. Thank you v much for this golden nugget.

There is also Metatron who is said to have one eye and one tongue for every human of Earth to give testimony for their deeds.

Probably a translation of 'shines like beryl' which is often seen as Aquamarine. Though delightfully that means they got some wide range: Goshenite-Clear/white Heliodor-Yellow Morganite-Pink Emerald-Green Bixbite-Red

None of what you wrote is from the Bible. There is no such thing as *"Thrones"* or *"Ophanim",* your description is of them, reads more like *the Cherubim.* *Seraphim* are God's personal guards. There is no description of them seeing all or knowing all, that is made up. *The Seraphim* have nothing to do with cases or matters on earth or in Heaven, *Jehovah* doesn't need a witness, he is the supreme witness of events.

🇷🇺☦️🤝☪️🇵🇸For the life of me, i cannot understand your obsession with C.S. Lewis, I mean the guy was just a fiction writer, a nobody really, not a holy teachers, so who cares what he says? He is a chewed up cliche, and a shallow one. Despite following the holy hierarchies of St. Dionysius, Aquinas' Angelogy and interpretation is false & isn't loyal to our hy Scriptures and teaching on the subject - he simply got the nature of Angels WRONG. As for the ranks of Cherubs vs. Seraphs, it is much more complicated than what you think, and I contend that by having the Seraphs higher than the Cherubs, St. DDionysius meant that they are the closest to CHRIST's throne, in the 3rd heaven, but not the closest to the Father who is beyond space and time. So, yes, the Seraphs are the closest to the Son, but who are the ones who guard the border between the 3rd heaven/creation and the Father who is absolutely divinely simple - the Cherubs. So we can say in that sense that BOTH the Seraphs and Cherubs sre equal in rank. Here is the most accurate description of the holy revelation & teachings of St. Dionysius and the ancient Christian & Jewish oral Tradition: 1️⃣☢️1st triad (Third Heaven) - the Cherubs, Seraphs & Thrones, are nearest to the Godhead, 'ever dwelling in the vestibule of Divinity'. *that is the reason why God made them from different kinds of light* Cherubs Hebrew: כְּרוּב pl. כְּרוּבִים (in Akkadian: 𒅗𒊏𒁍 karabu "to bless" such as 𒅗𒊑𒁍 karibu) *God created them from electricity & are the highest rank which guards the border between the 3rd heaven and the Father* "The name Cherubim means 'Fullness of knowledge'. Through them the Providential Energy streams forth as a transcendental Light perfectly illuminating the soul, uniting it with the Divine Wisdom, and imparting a full and lucid understanding of the Divine Immanence in all things." Seraphs (Hebrew: שרף pl. שְׂרָפִים) *God created them from the venom of rattle snake with 6 wings dwelling in 3rd heaven* "From the Seraphim, the 'Burning' or 'Fiery' Ones, flows the stream of supercelestial Grace. Like fire they consume all that separates man from God, enabling him to rise to the highest fulfillment of his destiny through the perfection and unification [2] of all the activities of the soul, and its union with the Divine." Ophans (Hebrew: אופנים - אופן pl.) *God created them from fire as forms of wheels of His heavenly throne dwelling in 3rd heaven* "Thrones, 'Divine Seats', make manifest the purifying power of Providence which wholly penetrates the consciousness. Through them the soul is uplifted to the Divine and becomes established in the constancy of divine service." 2️⃣☢️2nd triad (Second Heaven) - the Dominions, Virtues, and Powers, are given the middle place as indicating the ordered governance of Providence. Through them the soul is liberated from all that is below and assimilated to that which is above. *God made them all of regular light* Supreme Angels (מלאכי עליון :Hebrew) "The Dominions impart order and justice, through which true liberty is gained."

The idea is more that the principality is the metaphysical will of the collective body: every group of people have a 'personhood' of sorts. They would not have a separate name because they are the category, and they exist in a hierarchy. For example, Berlin has a principality that unites it, which is under a Brandenburger principality, under a Saxon/North-German principality, under a German, under a Germanic, under a European principality, under god.

In this case the Trhones would be something like machines holding up Gods authority, so like... sonars? I guess...

Perspectives are unlimited just like the universal language 'numbers'.

If I remember correctly, lillith is not an angel.

@@chimeremnmaozioko17 you would be correct, she was not an angel, in Hebrew lore, Lilith, she was the first woman, she had a problem with Adam and left, because she wanted be in control during bedtime, I'll keep it PG. In Isaiah angels talked to a woman get her to go to heaven, she denied their request grew wings and flew away. Reading scripture, it does not say there was more than 1 woman, but it does imply this, read Genesis 1:26 And God said, let us make man in our image, after our likeness; and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over all the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creepy thing that creepeth upon the earth. When we look at verse 27, so God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him, male and female created he them, but if look at verse 28, and God blessed them, and God said be fruitful and multiply, and replenish the earth. Then we look at Gen 2:15 And the Lord God took the man, and put him in the garden of Eden, to dress it and keep it, verse 16 And the LORD God commanded the man, saying Of every tree of the garden tho mayest freely eat, verse 17 But of the tree of knowledge of good and evil, thou shall not eat of it, for in he day that though eatest thereof thou shall surely die. Then verse 18 And the LORD God said, it is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him. Just by reading this it is not clear, I read it and God created man and woman together, but then lays Adam down created woman from his rib. If God created them and clothed them before hand, why are they both naked after he laid Adam down? Why is the woman created from man, while we are told they created together? Something is off, either missing or lost in translation, something is missing, or it's all way should be said, just we need to connect it together. This is where the story of Lilith comes into play, but not mentioned by name ever. Imho it was either Lilith or Death in the garden, I remember God telling Adam to not eat of the fruit but not Eve, so there is something to Lilith as the first woman. I am not saying bible is a lie, I believe it 100%, just not telling us everything, which is fine, we shouldn't know everything anyways imho, specially when comes to God and his design. You can not read scripture and not question it like everything else, but remember people don't believe in the bible cause it contradicts itself, but because it contradicts them. Scripture does say we could entertain angels and not even know, this refers that humans look like angels, they look like man. When read Genesis, it implies this also. Remember it said we will creat them in our image, which is angels, physical and spiritual, God. Read James 2:26 for the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. In the end it's up to you to accept Jesus or not, but remember when death comes you either repent in the flesh, or die in the spirit, for death is judgment. For Jonas spent 3 days and 3 nights in the belly of the whale, so shall son of man spend 3 days and 3 nights in the belly of the earth, then judgement.

You have hit upon a characteristic of Christianity. And that is to make things up. Sometimes it is to fill in details that aren't there, and sometimes it is apparently just for the sake of making things up. Watch any video on Noah's ark or the Creation story and you will read dozens of comments by people, none of whom agree with the others, but who nevertheless try to sound as if they have the authoritative, final word of truth. But It's more than that. The bible stories themselves do not agree with each other. There are two creation stories in Genesis. They are different in style and tone and the details don't match, as if they were written by separate authors and just stitched together, which is exactly what happened. The gospel stories also don't agree with each other. And it is not the case that "Well, it's really the same story told from four viewpoints." No, they are different and they do not agree with each other. But this is what you would expect if people collected stories that had been floating around for years as the gospels were, or were never written down, but were just oral traditions like the Old Testament narratives, and were only jumbled together by several writers many years later.
