Abrahamic Guardian Angels

A **Guardian Angel** is an Angel that is assigned to protect and guide a particular person, group, kingdom, or country under the command of God. There are guardian angels for every person, group and country and are only done in the by the lowest and weakest angels unless they are important enough for stronger angels with the highest being an Archangel.

## Description

The theology of angels and tutelary spirits has undergone many refinements since the 5th century. Belief in both the East and the West is that guardian angels serve to protect whichever person God assigns them to and present prayer to God on that person's behalf. The archangel Michael is also described as a Guardian Angel.

Chabad believes that people might indeed have guardian angels. For Chabad, God watches over people and makes decisions directly with their prayers and it is in this context that the guardian angels are sent back and forth as emissaries to aid in this task. Thus, they are not prayed to directly, but the angels are part of the workings of how the prayer and response comes about.

## Overview

The belief in guardian angels can be traced throughout all antiquity. The concept of angels that guard over particular people and nationalities played a common role in Ancient Judaism, while a theory of tutelary angels and their hierarchy was extensively research in the 5th century by Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite. There is a similar Islamic belief in the Mu'aqqibat. According to many Muslims, each person has two guardian angels, in front of and behind him, while the two recorders are located to the right and left.

Other examples in the New Testament are the angel who succored Christ in the garden, and the angel who delivered Saint Peter from prison. After Peter had been escorted out of prison by an angel, he went to the home of "Mary the mother of John, also called Mark". The servant girl, Rhoda, recognized his voice and ran back to tell the group that Peter was there. However, the group replied: "It must be his angel". In this view, the function of the guardian angel is to lead people to the Kingdom of Heaven.
