1 | how many angels in a legion? | Matt 26:53 | Timaeus | 185472 | ||
I would like to check on what a questionable source mentioned on TV. He said that a legion of angels was 12,000, so 12 legions would be 144,000. Then he continued to give references that said we all have this many angels at our disposal. I would like to know if there is any truth to this. Thanks, God Bless Tim |

Hello Tim, looks like our "questionable source" was off by only 6000 oops! I guess he mist it on that one too. His initials wouldn't be K.C. would they? legion The major unit of the Roman army consisting of 3,000 to 6,000 infantry troops and 100 to 200 cavalry troops. c.1205, from O.Fr. legion "Roman legion" (3,000 to 6,000 men, under Marius usually with attached cavalry), from L. legionem (nom. legio) "body of soldiers," from legere "to choose, gather," also "to read" Generalized sense of "a large number" is due to (inaccurate) translations of allusive phrase in Mark v.9 God bless.
