guardian angels (angels (spirits), spirits (beings), ... People (hierarchy name)) |

Note: Angels conceived as watching over or protecting a particular person, group, or place, common in many belief systems, including the Abrahamic religions. Belief in guardian angels can be traced throughout antiquity, for example in the culture of the Babylonians, Syrians, and Greeks. The concept of tutelary angels and their hierarchy was extensively developed in Christianity in the 5th century by Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Engelen die over een bepaalde persoon, groep of plaats waken en die beschermen. Ze komen voor in veel verschillende geloofsstelsels, waaronder de abrahamitische godsdiensten. Het geloof in beschermengelen gaat terug tot de oudheid, bijvoorbeeld in de cultuur van de Babyloniërs, Syriërs en Grieken. Concept en hiërarchie van de beschermengelen werden binnen het christendom verder uitgewerkt in de 5e eeuw, door Pseudo-Dionysius de Areopagiet. |
