Angels.
Angel is the name for spiritual beings who are messengers of God. The word originated from the Latin, angelus, itself derived from the Greek, ángelos, and means messenger. Hebrew word for angel is mal'ach. Angels are supposed to be immortal spirits, which live in Heaven. Dionysius believed there were nine orders of Heavenly beings of which angels were the lowest and seraphim were the highest.
According to many religions an angel is a spiritual being created by God. According to religious tradition, angels live in heaven and act as God’s servants and as messengers between God and man. They also serve as guardians of individuals and nations. Angels traditionally are pictured as have a human body and wings. Poets and artists have portrayed angels as symbols of innocence or virtue.
Many religions have teachings about angels or similar beings. In some primitive religions, legends tell of bright, powerful spirits that appear in dreams and visions and protect people or tribes. In Hinduism and Buddhism many major gods are accompanied by a band or court of spiritual beings.
Judaism, Christianity and Islam developed the most elaborate doctrines about angels. These religions recognize an order of beings in which angels rank above man but under god. God is all powerful and man is sometimes portrayed as in God’s image. In some traditions, Satan and other fallen angels rebel against this order.
The concept of angels with a human body and wings began in the Hebrew Bible or Old Testament and in Christianity. Later tradition refers to many archangels, or angels of higher rank, including Saint Michael. Select this link to view our Gingerbread Ornaments.
