Bib.; Di Marti and others compare also Egyptian guardian-griffins, called Šerref; see also כְּרוּב; on Assyrian Šarrapu (-bu), epithet of god Nergal, connected by DlWB with √ שָׂרַף, see שָׁרָב, ZimKAT 3. 415); — in OT. majestic beings with six wings, and human hands and voices, attendant upon ׳י Isaiah 6:2,6.
The hebrew word for seraph is spelled like this שָׂרַף . This is a shin, a resh and a final fe/pe. So the correct pronunciation for this word is sharaf, or shereph, or
sheriff.
