== Historical Background ==
Seraphim originated in Jewish belief as celestial beings with human forms. This led to their identification in Christianity as angel. In Medieval Christian belief, Seraphim (plural of Seraph) were 1 of 9 categories (choirs) of angels, depicted as angelic faces surrounded by 6 wings radiating outward from that face (they had no bodies, resembling wheels). They are said to emit such a radiant light, no one, not even divine beings can discern their form. In the 4th-5th Centuries CE, the hierarchy was:
:
First Tier (Closest to God)	Second Tier 	Third Tier (Farthest from God)
Seraphim 	Principalities	Dominions
Cherubim 	Virtues 	Archangels
Thrones 	Powers 	Angels
However, by the Middle Ages, the hierarchy was revised to the following:
:
First Tier (Closest to God)	Second Tier 	Third Tier (Farthest from God)
Seraphim 	Dominions 	Angels
Cherubim 	Virtues 	
Archangels 	Principalities	
 	Powers 	
 	Thrones 	
Regardless of the arrangement, Seraphim were in the highest tier and the highest choir in that tier (the closest of all angels to God). They were said to be the caretakers of God's throne, working to keep perfect order in the Divine. Seraphim purify things with an all-consuming flame and they never stop working and their energy never falters, nor their zeal. As such, they are described in very fiery terms. They are said to "burn with the fire of charity" (Charity was known as one of the Heavenly Virtues, the most important one).
