The Seraphs (Seraph for singular) Seraphim, meaning the Burning Ones, are the highest choir of angels in Heaven, being the closest to God only behind the True Archangels. The Seraphim are the highest angelic beings associated with the prophet Isaiah's vision of God in the Temple when God called him to his prophetic ministry. They are described as having six wings, with two wings covering their faces, two covering their feet, and two used for flight. Tradition places seraphim in the highest rank
