One at the head and one at the foot. In the Old Testament when we have a description of the Mercy Seat - where God met with man - there were two cherubim. One on either end.<BR/><BR/>I have a CD of Irish Worship and one of the songs about the cross has a phrase about all the heaven's being silent, "The Spirit brooding 'round that empty throne." Then the proclamation that "He is Risen". What a wonderful image.<BR/><BR/>I've never given the number of angels any thought. Very interesting thing for me to contemplate now.Kay Dayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14915323487092648396noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132398834656674229.post-55673335202332487112008-03-16T19:48:00.000-07:002008-03-16T19:48:00.000-07:00InterestingInterestingJenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11155942148979194567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3132398834656674229.post-83852210751711770832008-03-16T16:20:00.000-07:002008-03-16T16:20:00.000-07:00I wonder if it was to keep our focus on Christ.

Since there were no people to do that, God had angels do it for Jesus' birth. You know,I never thought about it very much, the fact that they weren't there at the resurrection. But I believe they turned away just as God did when Jesus was on the cross. Good deep thinking, Q.Momsthewordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06794683299776977697noreply@blogger.com
