Angels

[Cerberus 7]

What was the name of the angel at the tomb of Jesus?

[craft1948]

as I remember there were 2 angels at his tomb but neither were named....

Blimey, craft1948!
You've got a good memory - I can't remember what happened last week, and you can remember 2,000 years back!

I think they were called Cherry Binn and Sarah Fimm. Odd that because angels are supposed to be male. Such a silly solecism to make in a story which in other respects is so very obviously true.

The accounts differ, and not all gospels define them as angels. Two record one person(?) at the tomb, and the others record two. No names are given, but Matthew describes the person as a 'young man', Mark describes him as an 'angel', Luke says 'two men', whereas John goes completely over the top, as usual, by describing two seated angels, one at the foot and one at the head of the place where Jesus had lain.

They were most likely grave robbers, if they in fact they ever even existed.

chakka, that is unlikely: cherubim and seraphim are simply the plurals of cherub and seraph.
