Order Of Angels Powerful Angelic Cherubim
701 wordsCherubim: the Cherubim are the second mightiest order of angels. Unlike the common depiction of these angels in art, their 'actual' appearance is not anything like it.

Cherubim is plural for the word Cherub, and derives from the Hebrew word Kerry meaning knowledge or one who intercedes. They are the next closest to God in Christian mythology and are also the bearers ...
