The study of angels. The existence, nature, function, duties, and influences of heavenly forces called angels are important in the development of the monotheistic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. All three religions honor the texts of the Old Testament as divine revelation. They share roots in Middle Eastern history and Semitic languages; for example, the term for angel or messenger is malak in both Hebrew and Arabic.
All three religions also share the belief in the presence of an evil force, a disobedient angel, an adversary of God a satan in Hebrew who wreaks havoc on the human plane. In both the Koran and the Bible, angels are sent to strengthen believers, succor them here and in eternity, undertake military assistance, punish disbelievers, intercede for humans, act as GUARDIAN ANGELS, and mete out God’s judgment on the last day. Angels represent God, but are not to be worshiped for themselves.
