The tradition of decorating Christmas trees has been an essential part of the holiday season for centuries. At the top of many Christmas trees sits an angel – a symbol of the heavenly hosts who announced the birth of Jesus to the shepherds on that first Christmas night. For many people, these angelic tree toppers are gentle, comforting figures with serene expressions, soft robes, and delicate wings. However, a surprising trend has emerged in recent years, driven by viral memes and internet culture: using biblically accurate angels as Christmas tree toppers.
These biblically accurate angels are far from the cute and comforting cherubs people have grown accustomed to seeing on Christmas trees. Instead, they’re mysterious, awe-inspiring, and sometimes so frightening that they tell people who see them not to be afraid. These angels, as described in the Bible, can feature multiple wings, eyes covering their bodies, and wheels within wheels. The resurgence of interest in these otherworldly beings challenges the traditional view of angels.
Here’s why biblically accurate angel Christmas tree toppers will surprise you, and why decorating your Christmas tree with biblically accurate angels has spiritual value.
