About this listen

Celestial Hierarchy is a Pseudo-Dionysian work studying angels. It was written in Greek and some would place its composition in the fifth century. It had a great influence on the understanding of the hierarchies of angels.

Thomas Aquinas would use the work in his own writings, dividing the angels into three hierarchies, each of which contains three orders, based on how close they are to God:

  1. Seraphim, Cherubim, and Thrones
  2. Dominations, Virtues, and Powers
  3. Principalities, Archangels, and Angels
