BOOK OF ANGELS - ANGEL STORIES FROM BIBLE

Many think angels are one of the more fanciful elements of Scripture, but this illuminating and entertaining collection of angel stories from the Bible shows that there are just too many angels for them to be metaphorical, allegorical, or unimportant.

So that children will come to know angels, Marigold Hunt explains what angels are (and are not!) and gathers here in one volume most of the stories of angels in the Bible, including exciting tales of:

• The fallen angels, beginning with the devil himself, tempting Adam and Eve
• The angel who barred the gates of Eden so Adam and Eve could never enter again
• The angels who announced that Sara, Abraham’s aged wife, would have a baby
• The angel who stayed Abraham’s hand as he was about to sacrifice his son Isaac
• The angels in Jacob’s dream who climbed the stairway to Heaven
• The angels who saved Sidrach, Misach, and Abdenago from the fiery furnace
• The angel Gabriel, who foretold the birth of Jesus and John the Baptist
• The choirs of angels who sang above Bethlehem when Jesus was born 
• The angel who freed Peter from prison

-and many more!
