Learn about the Seven Archangels with iMinds insightful knowledge series.
The history of Angels rests predominantly in the Middle East. Other cultures had gods, goddesses or faeries, but in the Middle East they worshiped angels as their gods. Once the idea of a single all powerful God evolved, however, it was necessary to create another space for angels. And so, they became known as mediators between the newly created all powerful God and his servants –humankind- on Earth. The concept of angels was particularly native to Jewish and Babylonian culture.
The word angel comes from the Greek word for "messenger".
