Angels

Angels (bənê haĕlōhîm - the sons of God [1]) are of the Heavens and made from lightning and fire (while humans are made from dust and of the Earth) [3].

Many are jealous of Humans (including holy and fallen), sharing the view that God has put man first, placing their layer of Heaven (Paradise) closer to him and favoring them over angels. God also visits Man in Paradise but does not do the same for angels in their respective realms. Finally, at the creation of Man, God instructed all angels to worship Adam because he was made in the image of God. This perceived favor of man over angels is also part of the reason for Satanael's fall.

Classes of Angels:

 * Fallen Angels: Angels who have lost their original divinity and purpose, punished by God for rebelling.
 * Satanael, Azazel, Samael, Samyaza
 * Holy Angels: Angels who are not fallen and remain pure/holy in the eyes of God.
 * Archangels: Michael, Gabriel, Ramiel, Raphiel
 * Important: Azrael, Raziel, Rahab, Mastema [Virtues]

Tiers of Angels:
(see: Holy Angels) There are multiple tiers and types of angels. Each tier is also assigned one or more leaders (ex: Archangels). Secrets are important in Heaven and reflect divinity, thus higher tiers of angels are given more knowledge and Fallen Angels are barred from many of these secrets because of their fall in divinity [2].

[1] In Daniel 4 there are three allusions to a class of cosmic beings called “the watchers” (the plural form is in Dan 4:17; the singular form “watcher” is in Dan 4:13, 23). The word “watchers” (sometimes called the “watcher angels”) seems to be synonymous with the term “angels [The Birth of Satan: Tracing the Devil's Biblical Roots]"
 * Watchers: the angels sent to watch over Earth before the flood (Antediluvian period) [5]. Among these are the Fallen Watchers who, led by Samyaza, were part of a secret renegade society, slept with women of Earth producing Giants (Nephilim), and shared Divine knowledge with Man.
