P.421 - §4 After the second millennium of sojourn at seraphic headquarters the seraphim are organized under chiefs into groups of twelve (12 pairs, 24 seraphim),


and twelve such groups constitute a company (144 pairs, 288 seraphim), which is commanded by a leader.

Twelve companies under a commander constitute a battalion (1,728 pairs or 3,456 seraphim),

and twelve battalions under a director equal a seraphic unit (20,736 pairs or 41,472 individuals),

while twelve units, subject to the command of a supervisor, constitute a legion numbering 248,832 pairs or 497,664 individuals. Jesus alluded to such a group of angels that night in the garden of Gethsemane when he said: "I can even now ask my Father, and he will presently give me more than twelve legions of angels."


P.421 - §5 Twelve legions of angels comprise a host numbering 2,985,984 pairs or 5,971,968 individuals,

and twelve such hosts (35,831,808 pairs or 71,663,616 individuals) make up the largest operating organization of seraphim, an angelic army.


A seraphic host is commanded by an archangel or by some other personality of co-ordinate status, while the angelic armies are directed by the Brilliant Evening Stars or by other immediate lieutenants of Gabriel.

And Gabriel is the "supreme commander of the armies of heaven," the chief
executive of the Sovereign of Nebadon, "the Lord God of hosts."
