Angel Quotes and a Verse

In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth,

a town in Galilee, to a virgin pledged to be married to a man

named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was

Mary. The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who

are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”

Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what

kind of greeting this might be. But the angel said to her,

“Do not be afraid, Mary, you have found favor with God.

You will be with child and give birth to a son, and you are

to give him the name Jesus. He will be great and will be

called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him

the throne of his father David, and he will reign over the

house of Jacob forever; his kingdom will never end.”

- Luke 1:26-33

"It is not known precisely where angels dwell - whether in the air,

favorite hiding place."
