Our Misconceptions of Angels: Due to Christianity undergoing the non-Hebrew cultural control of Roman paganism for 1300 years unopposed ..we have adopted a very liberal & downplayed view of what they called, ‘Angels’ First, the term #angel is just a Greek transliteration. It’s true translation is #messenger in the context of ‘spirit-beings’. Scripture tells us of 2 overall types of Messengers: #Cherubim and #Seraphim (both seen here in the plural) Both are left untranslated from the Hebrew and because they are left untranslated, new definitions, descriptions & narratives can and have been applied Today we call women, ‘angels’ whenever we want to flatter or praise them. This is based on a liberal & misconceived idea of what Angels were They. Are. Male. They are not female, feminine OR children! But paganism gave us myths portrayed in art & story, of pagan goddesses, etc masquerading as angels. This was the pagans incorporating their pagan cultural mythologies into their conversion to Christianity. As if putting on Christianity as sheepskin to hide who the clergy really were (the empire of Rome under Saturn, having coiled up behind the walls of the Vatican having retained their sovereignty & hiding their treasury in a new Capitoline Hill) But when we reverse translate the words and retrace the etymology, we see exactly what Angels are.. #Cherub is actually a mis-transliteration which hides even the actual Hebrew word. This word is ‘Swordsman’. Then #Seraph which translates to ‘Burning One’, in reference to a figurative serpent-like creature with copper or brass color (hence: burning), which can also include a figurative reference to venemous. This was also symbolized as one of the 12 Hebrew Mazzaroth, the constellation which Rome called Scorpio but originally included Libra as its head (giving us the Egyptian & Hebrew ‘Crocodile/ Dragon’) Other Hebrew ex-canon scriptures, have used other foreign words for ‘Seraphim’. One such word is #Chalkydri. This is the Greek word, ‘Brazen’ (Khalkos) and Serpent (Hydra). Another word used is #Phoenix, the legendary ‘Firebird’ whose etymology is disputed and is said to trace from Latin to Greek to Hebrew but whose story originated in Egypt, yet connected to Arabia & Persia and twisted through the cultural allegories of each of these civilizations. All of that aside, we have Cherubim (Swordsmen) and Seraphim (Burning Ones). Both of these words are descriptive rather than literal, as the Hebrew language is incessantly figurative. These are describing their roles, duties and in Hebrew.. A sword, is protective. To burn, is wrath. So we have ‘Angels’ (Messengers) of #Protection as well as of #Judgement. These are the two attested roles of Angels throughout Scripture. Seraphim are not some effeminate choir. Cherubim are not some pedo-army of cupids.
