About this creature:
Thrones angels, also known as Ophanim. The Hebrew Bible is where the idea of throne angels first emerged:
Ezekiel 1:15-18
“As I looked at the living creatures, I saw a wheel on the ground beside each creature with its four faces. This was the appearance and structure of the wheels: They sparkled like topaz, and all four looked alike. Each appeared to be made like a wheel intersecting a wheel.
As they moved, they would go in any one of the four directions the creatures were faced; the wheels did not change direction as the creatures went. Their rims were high and awesome, and all four rims were full of eyes all around.”
In the Book of Ezekiel, the prophet sees four majestic beings with many faces, wings, and eyes supporting God’s throne. These creatures have since been identified as the throne angels in mythological accounts of angels.
