List of angels in theology
This is a list of angels in theology, astrology and magic, including both specific angels (e.g., Gabriel) and types of angels (e.g., seraphim).
Jerahmeel (archangel)
The Hebrew name Jerahmeel (Hebrew: יְרַחְמְאֵל Yəraḥməʾēl, Tiberian: Yăraḥmē̆ʾēl, "God shall have mercy"), which appears several times in the Tanakh (see the article Jerahmeel), also appears in various forms as the name of an archangel in books of the intertestamental and early Christian periods. The book 2 Esdras, also known as 4 Ezra, is regarded as canonical by the Ethiopian Orthodox Church and falls within the intertestamental books of the Apocrypha in Protestant Bibles used by the Lutheran Churches and the Anglican Communion; it has come down to us in Latin and appears as an appendix to the Vulgate.
Phanuel (angel)
Phanuel is the name given to the fourth angel who stands before God in the Book of Enoch (ca. 300 BC), after the angels Michael, Raphael, and Gabriel. Other spellings of Phanuel (פְּנוּאֵל or פְּנִיאֵל Pənūʾēl/Pənīʾēl, Tiberian: Pănūʾēl/Pănīʾēl) include Panuel, Paniel, Peniel, Penuel, Fanuel and Feniel. As Panuel his name means "God has turned", but as Paniel his name means "God is my face". Phanuel was one of the four voices Enoch heard praising God.
Azazil
In many Islamic and Islam-related traditions, Azazil (Arabic: عزازيل ʿAzāzīl, also known as Arabic: حارث Ḥārith) is the legendary prototype of the devil in Islamic culture. Azazil was considered to be among the nearest to God's throne, but because he sinned through pride, he became a devil. In Islamic tradition, Azazil is usually seen as the original name of Iblis, before he was expelled from heaven. Although Azazil is mostly portrayed as an archangel, who was already created when God made the jinn, in some reports Azazil is considered created as a jinni first but elevated to the rank of the angels.
Jophiel
The angel Jophiel (Heb. Yōp̄īʾēl, "Beauty of God"), also called Iophiel, Iofiel, Jofiel, Yofiel, Youfiel, Zophiel ( Ṣōp̄īʾēl, "God is my watchman") and Zuriel ( Ṣūrīʾēl, "God is my rock"), is an archangel in Christian and Jewish angelology. She is associated with beauty and art. According to the pseudepigraphal Revelation of Moses, another name for Jophiel is Dina (Hebrew: דִּינָה Dīnā, "Judgement"). In the text, Jophiel/Dina is described as an angel of the seventh heaven, a Cabalistic guardian of the Torah (and wisdom itself), who taught 70 languages to souls at the dawn of creation.
Michaelmas
Michaelmas (ˈmɪkəlməs ; aussi appelée la Fête des Saints Michel, Gabriel, Uriel et Raphael, la Fête des Archanges, ou la Fête de Saint Michel et de tous les Anges) est une fête chrétienne mineure observée dans le calendrier liturgique de certains pays de l’Ouest le . L'Église orthodoxe serbe observe cette fête, mais pas l'Église orthodoxe d'Orient. Michaelmas était l'un des quarter days, c'est-à-dire l'un des quatre termes trimestriels de l’année financière dans la tradition britannique et irlandaise. Catég

Les séraphins sont des créatures célestes ailées, possédant trois paires d'ailes, que l'on trouve dans la Bible autour du trône de Dieu. Le mot hébreu seraphim est un nom pluriel dérivé du verbe saraph, qui signifie « brûlant ». Le terme hébreu seraphim veut donc dire littéralement « les brûlants ».
Archange
Dans les trois religions monothéistes juive, chrétienne et musulmane, les archanges sont une catégorie d'anges. Ils en constituent le neuvième chœur. Dans la hiérarchie des anges, les archanges forment le second niveau, juste au-dessus des anges eux-mêmes (comme l'indique le préfixe arch- qui signifie « supérieur »). Le mot « archange » vient du grec / arkhángelos composé de / du grec arkhè qui veut dire à la fois « commandement » et « commencement » (c'est, en quelque sorte, la « tête ») et de / ángelos « messager ».
Raguel (angel)
Raguel (Greek: Ῥαγουὴλ ; Hebrew: רְעוּאֵל Rəʿūʾēl, Tiberian: Rŭʿūʾēl) also known as Raguil, Raquel, Rakul and Reuel, is an angel mainly of the Judaic traditions. He is considered the Angel of Justice. His name means "God shall pasture". This meaning is also related to the Hebrew word "rōʿī" (רֹעִי), meaning shepherd. Raguel is almost always referred to as the archangel of justice, fairness, harmony, vengeance, and redemption. In the Book of Enoch, cap. XXIII, Raguel is one of the seven angels whose role is to watch.
