It is not the four archangel brothers that are closest to god. At least not following the Judeo Christian bible. The four closest angels to god are the seraphims. Rather far below these beings, the seraphim, the brother's michael and lucifer are placed. Lucifer was struck down by michael for his misplaced faith in his own standing above mortals. But both lucifer and michael are both archangels, a relatively low standing compared to all the angels described in scripture. The leviathan being older don't necessarilly mean that they are stronger, just better understanding of the abilities of thier successors. I.E. Angels. Lucifer may have at one point been revelled above all other angels but that changed once he strayed from the word of God. God deemed mortal's to inherit the earth and rule paradise till  the end of existence. Lucifer's inability to trust in his father's word was his ultimate downfall. The hightst standing angel's are the seraphim, of which there are no equal. They are the highest order of angels.
