who are the four angels mentioned in the bible
Seven Archangels Jewish people borrowed the names for angels from Babylonian star catalogues, a part of its folklore and cosmology, during their forced exile known as the Babylonian captivity starting in 605 BCE, first with the prophet Daniel, then later with Authors such as Ezekiel who styled the star constellations, that were held as "sons of the gods" (Sons of the Sky Father deity in Babylonia), as angels from the Lord of Israel, in fact living animals in the heaven (the abstract forms of the constellations) that were referred to as Cherubim, and with that he styled what was revered as the sons of the gods in Babylonia as servants of the Lord of Israel. The 2 BC Book of the Parables, chapter XL, echoes such folkloric representations, and gives the name of the four angels with whom the Ancient of Days comes, the ones standing before the Lord of Spirits, the voices of those upon the four sides magnifying the Lord of Glory as: Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, and Phanuel.
Seven Spanish Angels The song is about an outlaw and his lover who are trying to outrun a posse sent to return them to Texas. When they are cornered, they decide to fight the approaching lawmen. Before the final gunfight, the two embrace, speaking of their belief that God will spare them. The gunfight then commences, with the outlaw firing upon the posse. He is immediately shot and killed, prompting his distraught lover to pick up his rifle. She tearfully prays, "Father, please forgive me; I can't make it without my man." She deliberately points the empty weapon it at the lawmen and is then shot dead. After each death, the titular angels gather to pray for the lovers. This is followed by "thunder from the throne" and the angels "tak[ing] another angel home". [3] Seals stated that "We tried to make [the story] ethereal but also believable". As written the song included the lines: "Now the people in the valley swear/ That when the moon's just right/ They see the Texan and his woman/ Ride across the clouds at night", which Sherrill preferred not to record feeling the track would run too long.[2]
