| Summary: | The classification of angels, which is now widespread in Christian circles, was studied and expounded by a late fifth-century theologian known as the Pseudo-Dionysius Areopagite. In his work The Celestial Hierarchy, this author classifies spiritual creatures into nine classes of angels, divided into three hierarchies, each one comprises different orders. In them he included the seraphim and the cherubim. However, this classification, which is still accepted today, is not in accordance with what the Scripture says. La clasificación de los ángeles, que hoy se encuentra generalizada en los círculos cristianos, fue estudiada y expuesta por un teólogo de finales del siglo V, conocido como el Pseudo Dionisio Areopagita. En su obra La jerarquía celeste, este autor clasifica a las criaturas espirituales en nueve clases de ángeles, divididas en tres jerarquías, cada una de las cuales comprende órdenes diferentes. En ellas incluyó a los serafines y a los querubines. Sin embargo, esta clasificación, que todavía hoy se sigue admitiendo, no está de acuerdo con lo que dice la Escritura. |
