What does "Harab" (seraphs) means?

[MCreeper]

Is it a "thing" aka reference to something, or is it just meaningless\made up? Can't find anything relevant with my google-fu. =\

https://www.wordhippo.com/what-is/the-meaning-of/arabic-word-72a6b8beb2fd4a967e9c161745c3565c867c739e.html see here - it looks like it means 'fight', 'war, 'struggle'...and the Harab Caelites are more warlike than the Airyas. But it could just be a coincidence?

"Harab" is Arabic for "fight."
A "seraph" is a celestial being, plural "seraphim."
If I may ask, why do you ask?

Reworking russian nation translation, and wondering however it should be written and what it is supposed to mean at all. :P So far i ended up with "harabian" seraphs, which is... probably close enough and doesn't sound too stupid.

'Harab serapel' are 'the Ravens of the Burning of God' in kabbalistic lore. Antithesis of Netzach. The serapel part was replaced with seraph to fit dominions.

Ah, I forgot that other name for the Arab Zaraq.

There should be a thread for explaining some of the more obscure names in Dominions :P Can someone tell me where do the names Ammi and Acha (Hinnom mages) come from? Can't find it anywhere.
