A Gathering of Angels: Angels in Jewish Life and Literature looks at Jewish history in a unique waythrough the eyes of angels. A rabbi and a scholar, Morris B. Margolies pores through nearly three thousand years of literature and lore in an enlightening exploration of the angels, who shape and reflect Jewish beliefs, hopes, and fears.

Synopsis:

A Gathering of Angels looks at Jewish history in a unique way — through the eyes of angels. This unique book encompasses angels from familiar biblical tales such as the angels on Jacob's ladder, Elijah the prophet-angel, and Satan, the most famous fallen angel — as well as angels from more esoteric texts and sources like the mystical classic Zohar, hasidic tales, and the Dead Sea Scrolls.
