Fascinating. My grandmother used to say "Michael on my right, Gabriel on my left, Uriel before me and Raphael behind me" when she put me to bed when I was a kid. I never really gave it much thought. Thank you for making this presentation and the information it contains available.
Weird presentation. One question were Ángels supposed to protect Jews, and if so where were they during the Shoah, and if not, what good were they?
