Angels are spiritual beings that serve the Holy One, blessed be He, and their place is in the worlds of BIA (Beriah, Yetzirah, Asiyah). The translation of the word "malach" means messenger, because their role is to transfer divine abundance in the worlds and perform various missions. | |||
Unlike the divine powers in the world of Atzilut and the worlds above Atzilut, which are united with the Holy One, blessed be He, to the extent that they are not called by the name "world," in the BIA worlds there is separation and division, and in these worlds there are angels. The angels were created from the falling of lights in the "breaking of the vessels" (shevirat hakeilim), which fell as separate parts and their root is from the world of Tohu. | Unlike the divine powers in the world of Atzilut and the worlds above Atzilut, which are united with the Holy One, blessed be He, to the extent that they are not called by the name "world," in the BIA worlds there is separation and division, and in these worlds there are angels.
