Do angels of weak nations accept angels of strong nations?

Question: The Edom nations are mighty. Do other nations’ angels accept it?

Answer:

When G-d elevates a nation to be the greatest power in this world, that is accomplished through His elevation of the “guardian angel” of that nation. It is elevated above the angels of all the other nations. The guardian angels of the other nations have no choice or say in this, since it is decreed by G-d.

It has been approximately 3500 years since the family of Jacob entered Egypt (Genesis, chapter 46). Since then, G-d has decreed several periods of exile upon the Jewish people. In each one, they were dominated by another empire. Then, after a predetermined time, G-d released them from the exile they were in. See the Book of Daniel, 8:20-24.

When the Jews must be exiled by another nation, G-d first makes that nation into a great empire that rules over other nations. In the course of history, they were exiled by the following empires:

the Egyptian Empire
the Babylonian Empire (based in the area of modern-day Iraq)
the Persian Empire (based in the area of modern-day Iran)
the Greek Empire
the Roman Empire (Edom)

The Jews will be released from this final exile (Edom) when the Messiah is revealed in the very near future.
