noun

الكروبيم

A winged creature attending God, described by Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite (c. 5th–6th century) as the second highest order of angels, ranked above thrones and below seraphim; similar to a lamassu in the pre-exilic texts of the Hebrew Bible, more humanoid in later texts.

Examples :

"The stained-glass windows in the old church depicted rows of angels, with the cherubim, plump and winged, hovering just below the more fiery seraphim in God's celestial court. "

صوّرت نوافذ الزجاج الملون في الكنيسة القديمة صفوفًا من الملائكة، مع الكروبيم، الممتلئين والأجنحة، يحومون أسفل السارافيم الأكثر نارية في محكمة الله السماوية.
