Although believing in angels remain one of Six Articles of Faith in Islam, one can not find a dogmatic angelology in Islamic tradition. Despite this, scholars had discussed the role of angels from specific canonical events, such as the Mi'raj, and Quranic verses. Even if they are not in focus, they have been featured in folklore, philosophy debates and systematic theology. While in classical Islam, widespread notions were accepted as canonical, there is a tendency in contemporary scholarship to reject much material about angels, like calling the Angel of Death by the name Azra'il.

As described in the book of Daniel, "one like a son of man" is clearly identified as the messianic and angelic redeemer of Israel, a truly heavenly redeemer known to Israel as the archangel Michael. According to the Kabbalah as described by the Golden Dawn there are ten archangels, each commanding one of the choirs of angels and corresponding to one of the Sephirot. It is similar to the Jewish angelic hierarchy.In the New Testament, the existence of angels, just like that of demons, is taken for granted. [40] They can intervene and intercede on behalf of humans. Angels protect the righteous ( Matthew 4:6, Luke 4:11). They dwell in the heavens ( Matthew 28:2, John 1:51), act as God's warriors ( Matthew 26:53) and worship God ( Luke 2:13). [41] In the parable of the Rich man and Lazarus, angels behave as psychopomps. The Resurrection of Jesus features angels, telling the woman that Jesus is no longer in the tomb, but has risen from the dead. [42] Interaction with humans [ edit ] Kristus i Getsemane (1873), an angel comforting Jesus before his arrest in the Garden of Gethsemane, by Carl Heinrich Bloch (1834–1890) God's messengers, those individuals whom he sends (often from his personal presence in the eternal worlds), to deliver his messages ( Luke 1:11–38); to minister to his children ( Acts 10:1–8, Acts 10:30–32); to teach them the doctrines of salvation (Mosiah 3); to call them to repentance (Moro. 7:31); to give them priesthood and keys (D.&C. 13; 128:20–21); to save them in perilous circumstances ( Nehemiah 3:29–31; Daniel 6:22); to guide them in the performance of his work ( Genesis 24:7); to gather his elect in the last days ( Matthew 24:31); to perform all needful things relative to his work (Moro. 7:29–33)—such messengers are called angels.".

In Judaism, angels ( Hebrew: מַלְאָךְ‎ mal’āḵ; "messenger"), are understood through interpretation of the Tanakh and in a long tradition as supernatural beings who stand by God in heaven, but are strictly to be distinguished from God (YHWH) and are subordinate to him. Occasionally, they can show selected people God's will and instructions. [16] In the Jewish tradition they are also inferior to humans since they have no will of their own and are able to carry out only one divine command.

Although their different roles, such as warriors for some archangels, may suggest a human gender, Christian artists were careful not to given them specific gender attributes, at least until the 19th century, when some acquire breasts for example.

Informally, students begin learning about angles in Year 1 where they are taught about position and direction.

If you told someone who purports to be a sage of Israel that the Deity sends an angel who enters a woman's womb and there forms an embryo, he would think this a miracle and accept it as a mark of the majesty and power of the Deity, despite the fact that he believes an angel to be a body of fire one third the size of the entire world. All this, he thinks, is possible for God. But if you tell him that God placed in the sperm the power of forming and demarcating these organs, and that this is the angel, or that all forms are produced by the Active Intellect; that here is the angel, the "vice-regent of the world" constantly mentioned by the sages, then he will recoil.– Guide for the Perplexed II:4 One of Melozzo's musician (seraphim) angels from the Basilica dei Santi Apostoli, now in the sacristy of St. Peter's Basilica Angel of the Revelation by William Blake, created between c. 1803 and c. 1805 Individuals [ edit ]
