George from Dallas Texas sent in the following question. What is the origin and meaning of the Seraphim name? The name Seraphim refers to more than one Seraph class angel. It's meaning is rooted in ancient Hebrew, and is literally translated as "the burning ones". In Old Testament scripture it states that the Seraphim angels that surround God's throne are burning with light, which represents their eternal love and worship of God. Hence they were given the name Seraphim. Some scholars believe that the origin of the name Seraphim actually predates ancient Hebrew, and could possibly have it's origins in ancient Babylon or Egypt. It is the meaning of the word Seraphim that has helped artists and theologians in attempting to define what the Seraphim might look like. We appreciate George taking the time to send in this unique question. Please be sure to browse around our website some more for more interesting angel and religion related info.
