I really really really hate the "Biblically accurate angel" thing, meme.
I hate it so much.
For one it is not from the Bible and for two is not an angel.
It is from the Tanach and it is a מַלְאָךְ Malach (singular).
Malachim (plural) have no free will, their name/title means messengers, and they have jobs.
The whole thing of being making pictures or whatever and then doing a caption of "Be not afraid" is annoying and frustrating.
Once again a facet of Judaism is taken and made into a joke. It is taken by goyim and used for their amusement with no care or regard to how we may feel about it, how it degrades us, how disrespectful it is to us and our culture.
In our texts the words that are used to describe Malachim are best translated as awesome, the original meaning. As in inspiring of awe.
Goyim instead of have turned them into these Lovecraftian horrors essentially which doubly disgusting when you taken into account that H.P Lovecraft was a massive antisemite.
Some Malachim we actually know the names of, which xtianty calls Archangels and misunderstand what they are and their purpose is.
These Malachim like all Malachim have no free will and have jobs.
It is very common to find Jews who are named after these Malachim.
These Malachim are also associated with protection, the protection of Am Yisrael as a whole and with the protection of us individuals.
Malachim are not jokes. They are beautiful, they are a wonder, they are one of Hashem's many creations (Fun Fact they were created on the Second Day, what we call Monday in the Gregorian Calendar) and a large part of Judaism both as a religion and a culture.
I wish goyim could respect that, but that would mean that would need to learn to respect us and our culture and stop using us for their amusement and well we have yet to see that happen.
I know Jews make jokes in regards to Malachim, but generally speaking there is a very large and distinctive difference between when we do it and when goyim do it.
And that is when the overwhelming majority of Jews do it, it comes from a place of love, respect, and understanding of the significance and meaning whereas when goyim do it, it is a mockery. It is a degradation whether they realize it or not.
And at the end of the day their will always be a difference when someone who belongs to a culture makes a joke about something in their culture/their culture then when someone who does not belong does it.
The same how way how it will always be diffrent when you make a joke or say something about your family vs when someone who is not a member of family does it.
