Angels and Football in the Bible

Sarah and Abraham hosting three angels

There’s a story in the Old Testament about 3 angels visiting Abraham and Sarah in their tent.

There’s also a song which many parents sing at night to their kids which indicates that there are 4 angels (one on each side) that serve to protect us.

Paco and I were discussing which of the 3 angels (Raphael, Uriel, Michael, Gabriel) had visited Abraham and Sarah.

We concluded that Uriel was the one who was absent (not sure how).

“Where do you think he was?” Paco asked.

“I think he was probably at home, watching football,” I responded.

“No way!” Paco exclaimed emphatically.

“It wasn’t Sunday!”
