biblical angels
Scripture's divine beings
Biblical angels are spiritual beings who serve as messengers and agents of God in Jewish and Christian scripture.
They appear throughout the Bible delivering divine announcements, protecting the faithful, and executing judgment.
The familiar image of winged humanoids in white robes comes more from art history than scripture—biblical descriptions include terrifying multi-winged creatures covered in eyes (seraphim, cherubim) and wheels of fire.
The angel of the Lord appeared to her in a dream.
