Uriel (אוּרִיאֵל "Flame of God", Standard Hebrew Uriʾel, Tiberian Hebrew ʾÛrîʾēl) is one of the archangels of post-Exilic Rabbinic tradition, and also of certain Christian traditions. His name may have analogies with Uriah. The angels mentioned in the older books of the Hebrew Bible are without names.

A cherub (Hebrew כרוב; plural cherubim, כרובים) is a supernatural creature mentioned several times in the Tanakh (or Old Testament) and the Book of Revelation. In medieval Catholic theology the Cherubim are one of the highest ranks in the hierarchy of angels, along with Seraphim.

Because most English speakers are unfamiliar with Hebrew plural formation, the word cherubims is som ...

Holy Spirit - Depiction in art: Encyclopedia - Iconoclasm

Literally, iconoclasm is the destruction of religious icons and other symbols or monuments, usually for religious or political motives. In Christian circles, iconoclasm has generally been motivated by a literal interpretation of the second of the ten commandments, which forbids the making and worshipping of "graven images". It has sometimes been motivated by christological or even political concerns as well. People who engage in such practices are called iconoclasts, a term that has come to be applied to any person who breaks or disdains established dogmas or conventions. Conversely, people who revere or venera ...
