Cherub means to pray, to bless. In the Old Testament they have an important task; they are God's companions and announce his presence. They were depicted on the Ark of the Covenant of the people of Israel and in Solomon's Temple. In Genesis 3:24 they become guardians of the tree of life, paradise. Hildegard von Bingen compares our soul to the sap in a tree. It is only this sap that causes all the fruit on the tree to grow. Origin: Middle High German sēle → gmh, Old High German sēla → goh, further origin uncertain; possibly from Germanic *saiw(a)lō, a derivation of the word for “lake”; According to old Germanic ideas, the unborn and the dead lived in the water: what belongs to the lake = the soul. A beautiful picture. Because if our soul is sick, we cannot grow either. A person's soul is like a lake. If you throw a stone into it, it becomes restless and there are waves. At some point the waves calm down and the surface is smooth again, but the stone remains at the bottom forever... The wheel appears on early Christian tombstones as a symbol of God and eternity. The book of Daniel reports the vision of flaming wheels around the head of God and Ezekiel of wheels with eyes that run and at the same time stand still, thus expressing the omnipotence of God. In the rustling of the trees you discover the whispers of your soul. Jutta Vogt-Tegen The more collected a person lives in the depths of their soul, the stronger the charisma that emanates from them and draws others into their fold Edith Stein The philosopher's stone perhaps lies in the depths of the soul.

He who is of God hears the words of God; you do not hear them because you are not of God. Then the Jews answered him, Do we not rightly say, You are a Samaritan and possessed by a demon? Jesus answered, I am not possessed by a demon, but I honor my Father; but you insult me. The Holy Spirit is the “form” of God who should always be with people. Jesus, on the other hand, was only with them for a certain period of time. God the Father was only in paradise with Adam and Eve; after that no one saw him again. God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit place a crown on Mary's head. The sin against the Holy Spirit (ancient Greek τοῦ Πνεύματος βλασφημία tou Pneumatos blasphēmia and Latin blasphemia Spiritus: “blasphemy of the spirit”) is, according to Christian understanding, a sin in which an obvious work of the Holy Spirit is attributed to evil or the devil.
