Thrones are the Angels of pure humility, peace and submission. They reside in the area of the cosmos where material form begins to take shape. The lower Choir of Angels need the Thrones in order to access God. They are said to look like great glowing wheels covered with many eyes.
They serve as God's chariot and dispense his judgment in order to carry out his desires for humanity. The angels in the second choir can exist in a state of transition between the celestial and human worlds. They are considered heavenly governors, attempting to strike a balance between matter and spirit, good and bad. (Col1:16)
