Christian references to angels abound in Western art and literature. What about Jewish heritage? Research by NELC Adjunct Associate Professor Mika Ahuvia explores the important role of angels in Jewish thinking. Her book on this topic, On My Right Michael, On My Left Gabriel: Angels in Ancient Jewish Culture, was published in 2021 by the University of California Press. Intrigued? You can read an enthusiastic review in The Times of Israel and watch a book launch interview sponsored by the Stroum Center for Jewish Studies.
