Book Description Soft cover. Condition: New. No Jacket. Some years ago when I started "collecting" angels as a literary diversion, it was certainly with no thought of serving as their archivist, biographer, and finally as their lexicographer. Such an idea did not occur to me--indeed, could not have occurred to me--until I had corralled a sufficient number of the heavenly denizens to make a dictionary of them feasible. At first I thought that angels, named angels, were to be found only in the Bible. I soon learned that, on the contrary, the Bible was the last place to look for them. True, angels are mentioned frequently enough in both the Old and New Testaments, but they are not named, save in two or three instances. Virtually all the named angels in this compilation are called from sources outside Scripture. Of the books in the New Testament, while the Synoptic Gospels and the Pauline Epistles have been 1ongtime favorites of mine, the book of Revelation always held a particular fascination for me, mainly because, I believe, of its apocalyptic imagery and involvement with angels. One day as I was leafing through its pages, my eye was arrested by verse 2, chapter 8: And I saw the seven Angela who stand before God; And to them were given trumpets. Of the seven Revelation angels I had no difficulty in establishing the identity of three; Michael and Gabriel (in Scripture) and Raphael (in "The Book of Tobit"). The last-named angel, by a happy chance, identifies himself: "I am Raphael," he discloses to his young charge Toby, "one of the seven angels who stand and enter before the glory of the Lord." And so, with three of the seven angels identified, the problem was to bring to light the remaining four. CONTINUES IN THE INTRODUCTION. The Book contains a listing of the Illustrations by name and page number. Seller Inventory # 825
