The seven brothers are all children of the same Father. But the elder three partake of the Father's nature. The younger four resemble the Mother.

The three elder sons go forth into the Universe of Stars and there they present the Father. The younger four go forth into the Universe of Stars and show the nature of the one the Father loved. - Alice Bailey

In the quote above, from Alice Bailey, the three elder sons are the first three of the Seven Rays. They represent the attributes of the Creator.

These Rays, in their simplest expression, are the Trinity, the energies of Spirit that make Creation possible.

The First Ray, in this family analogy, would be Spirit, the Third Ray, Matter, and the Second Ray, which resides between the two, is Consciousness - the "Child" that is born of the union between First and Third. The Archangels associated with these three rays are Michael (First Ray), Jophiel (Second Ray), and Chamuel.

The other four Rays - 4 Harmony, 5 Intellect, 6 Devotion, and 7 Freedom - all come out of the Third, out of Matter. They represent the attributes of the Created Universe and the striving of that Universe to collapse the duality back to Oneness.
