MichaelMichael (Hebrew: מִיכָאֵל, Micha'el or Mîkhā'ēl; Greek: Μιχαήλ, Mikhaḗl; Latin:
Michael or Míchaël; Arabic: ميخائيل, Mikhaḗl)
is an archangel in Hebrew, Christian and Islamic tradition.
He is viewed as the field commander of the Army of God.
He is mentioned by name in the Book of Daniel, the Book of Jude and the Book of Revelation
in
which
he leads God's armies against Satan's forces during his uprising.
In the book of Daniel, Michael appears as
"one of the chief princes"
who in Daniel's vision comes to the Archangel Gabriel's aid in his contest with the angel of Persia (Dobiel).
Michael is also described there as the advocate of Israel
and
"great prince who stands up for the children of your [Daniel's] people".
In Hebrew, the name Michael means
"who is \\?like El (God)",
which in Talmudic tradition is posed as a rhetorical question:
"Who is like God?"
to imply that no one is like God.
Much of the late Midrashic detail about Michael was transmitted to Christianity through the Book of Enoch, whence it was taken up and further elaborated.
In late medieval Christianity, Michael, together with Saint George, became the patron saint of chivalry, and of the first chivalric order of France, the Order of Saint Michael of 1469.
In the British honours system, a chivalric order founded in 1818 is also named for these two saints, the Order of St Michael and St George.
St Michael is also considered in many Christian circles as the patron saint of the warrior.
Police officers and soldiers, particularly paratroopers and fighter pilots, regard him as their patron.
He is also a patron of Germany, the City of Brussels and Kiev.
Roman Catholics refer to him as Saint Michael the Archangel and also simply as Saint Michael.
Orthodox Christians refer to him as the Taxiarch Archangel Michael or simply Archangel Michael.
