Della Concezione,
Rome. 1626 A.D.
His name means Who is
as God. Michael ranks
as the greatest of
all Angels whether in
Jewish, Christian or
Islamic writings. He
is Chief of the Order
of Virtues, Chief of
Archangels, Prince of
the Presence, Angel
of Repentance,
Righteousness, Mercy
and Sanctification:
also, Ruler of the
4th Heaven, and
Conqueror of Satan.
In Jewish lore, he is
regarded as the
forerunner of the
Shekinah. It is
foretold in Daniel
that when the world
is once again in real
trouble, Michael will
reappear. It is
Michael who will
descend from Heaven
with the Key to the
Abyss and a great
chain in his hand and
will bind the Satanic
Dragon for 1000 years
(Revelation: 20:1).
And there was war in
heaven: Michael and
his Angels fought
against the
dragon....and the
great dragon was cast
out. (Revelation:
12:7-9).
