Michael is mentioned three times in Daniel (Daniel 10:13, 21; 12:1), where he is called “the great prince which standeth for the children of thy people,” the Jews. In Jude 1:9, he is called “ the archangel .” In Revelation 12:7, he is seen in command of the angelic army of heaven. His work seems to be to deliver God’s people, particularly the Jews, from the power of Satan, and finally to oust him and his angels from the heavenlies, and cast them out into the earth (Revelation 12:9). Michael also has something to do with the resurrection of the dead, for he is associated with the resurrection mentioned in Daniel 12:1–2, and he contested with the devil in the resurrection of Moses (Jude 1:9).The voice of the archangel that will be heard when the dead in Christ shall rise (1 Thessalonians 4:16) will be the voice of Michael, for he is the only archangel mentioned in the Scriptures.
