Notes

  • For more information, see Angel Lore and Cupids which further angelic details.
  • Unlike a Seraph, information concerning a Cupid's angelic complexion or shape remains undefined in Canon.

Cherub Angels In Lore

A Cherub angel as depicted on Wikipedia

The information below is info derived from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherub but I reworded and reorganized the information.

Cherubs or Cherubim are an order of angels that are of a lower ranking than Seraphs but they outclass all other angels of the angelic choir or spheres which divides, separates and fully compromises the angelic society.

Attributes of Cherub Source.

  • They guard, watch and monitor God's throne room at all times.
  • They have four different faces, each representing a different organism, and have four wings that are used for flight. Two of the wings extended upward, meeting above and sustaining the throne of God; while the other two stretched downward and covered the creatures themselves.
  • God also stationed two Cherubs at the gate of the Garden of Eden.
