Angel

Angels

(Latin angelus; Greek aggelos; from the Hebrew for "one going" or "one sent"; messenger). The word is used in Hebrew to denote indifferently either a divine or human messenger. The Septuagint renders it by aggelos which also has both significations. The Latin version, however, distinguishes the divine or spirit-messenger from the human, rendering the original in the one case by angelus and in the other by legatus or more generally by nuntius. In a few passages the Latin version is misleading, the word angelus being used where nuntius would have better expressed the meaning, e.g. Isaiah 18:2; 33:3, 6.
It is with the spirit-messenger alone that we are here concerned. We have to discuss
* the meaning of the term in the Bible, * the offices of the angels, * the names assigned to the angels, * the distinction between good and evil spirits, * the divisions of the angelic choirs, * the question of angelic appearances, and * the development of the scriptural idea of angels.
