Angels and their Categories

Some time ago I wanted to write about the categories of Angels that exist and these days of Chance I have found a "Rosary to San Miguel Arcangel" where they all come

This Rosary is smaller since each tamale consists of: 1 Our Father and 3 Hail Marys

And the categories of Angels are:

I. Supreme Hierarchy:

Seraphim

Cherubim

Thrones

II. Middle Hierarchy:

Dominations

Powers

Virtues

III. Lower Hierarchy:

Principalities

Archangels

Angels

The Smiling Angel (cathedral of Reims)

Well, what a satisfaction to be able to write about the Angels to be able to know them always a little more.

329 St. Augustine says: "'Angel' is the name of their office, not of their nature. If you seek the name of their nature, it is 'spirit'; if you seek the name of their office, it is 'angel': from what they are, 'spirit', from what they do, 'angel.'"188 With their whole beings the angels are servants and messengers of God. Because they "always behold the face of my Father who is in heaven" they are the "mighty ones who do his word, hearkening to the voice of his word".189
