<1,,743,archangelos>
"is not found in the OT, and in the NT only in 1 Thess. 4:16 and Jude 1:9,
where it is used of Michael, who in Daniel is called 'one of the chief
princes,' and 'the great prince' (Sept., 'the great angel'), 10:13, 21; 12:1.
Cp. also Rev. 12:7 .... Whether there are other beings of this exalted rank in
the heavenly hosts, Scripture does
not say, though the description 'one of the chief princes' suggests
that this may be the case; cp. also Rom. 8:38; Eph. 1:21; Col. 1:16, where the
word translated 'principalities' is arche, the prefix in archangel." * [*
From Notes on Thessalonians, by Hogg and Vine, pp. 142.] In 1 Thess. 4:16 the
meaning seems to be that the
voice of the Lord Jesus will
be of the character of an "archangelic" shout.
(2) Source---Who was this ‘Michael?’ Many
Bible scholars think that
this is the name of Jesus prior to and after leaving the earth. The reasoning
behind this is that Jesus was described as God’s highest messenger at Jude 9
(gr. archaggelos – Arch means highest and aggelos means
messenger), and since Jesus is
described as God’s most prominent messenger in Hebrews the First Chapter, the
thinking is that Jesus and Michael are one in the same.
This thought is
reinforced by Paul’s words as found at 1 Thessalonians 4:16, where we read,
‘Because the Lord himself will come
down from heaven and give the command in the voice of the highest messenger (gr. archaggelou)
[of God] with God’s trumpet.’
So, in this case, ‘the Lord’ must refer to Jesus, and
he is described having the voice of God’s ‘highest messenger’ or ‘archangel
(3 )
Source--- The
earlier Protestant scholars usually identified Michael with the preincarnate
Christ, finding support for their view, not only in the juxtaposition of the
"child" and the archangel in Revelation 12, but
also in the attributes ascribed to him in Daniel (for a full discussion see
Hengstenberg, Offenbarung, I, 611-22, and an interesting survey in English by
Dr. Douglas in Fairbairn's BD).

(4) Source---Is Jesus Christ the same person
as Michael the archangel?
The name of this Michael appears
only five times in the Bible. The glorious spirit person who bears the name is referred
to as “one of the chief princes,” “the great prince who has charge of your
[Daniel’s] people,” and as “the archangel.” (Dan. 10:13; 12:1; Jude 9, RS)
Michael means “Who Is Like God?” (Sbt Note-Who Says—Good
Dictionaries) The name evidently designates Michael as the one who takes the
lead in upholding Jehovah’s sovereignty and destroying God’s enemies.
At 1 Thessalonians 4:16
(RS), the command of Jesus Christ for the resurrection to begin is
described as “the archangel’s call,” and Jude 9 says that the archangel is
Michael. Would it be appropriate to liken Jesus’ commanding call to that of
someone lesser in authority? Reasonably, then, the archangel Michael is Jesus
Christ. (Interestingly, the expression “archangel” is never found in the plural
in the Scriptures, thus implying that there is only one.)
Revelation 12:7-12 says
that Michael and his angels would war against Satan and hurl him and his wicked
angels out of heaven in connection with the conferring of kingly authority on
Christ. Jesus is later depicted as leading the armies of heaven in war against
the nations of the world. (Rev. 19:11-16) Is it not reasonable that Jesus would
also be the one to take action against the one he described as “ruler of this
world,” Satan the Devil? (John 12:31) Daniel 12:1 (RS) associates the
‘standing up of Michael’ to act with authority with “a time of trouble, such as
never has been since there was a nation till that time.” That would certainly
fit the experience of the nations when Christ as heavenly executioner takes
action against them. So the evidence
indicates
that the Son of God was known as Michael before he came to earth and is known
also by that name since his return to heaven where he resides as the glorified
spirit Son of God.

This is because -- archangel is only used in its singular form in the
Bible
The reason this is so debated among Protestants is because
Michael is the only one who is directly called an archangel and the term archangel is only used in its singular
form in the Bible, although Gabriel and Lucifer/Satan seemed to be equal in
position to Michael, which leads to the assumption that they too are archangels
From

The Controversy Over Michael’s
Identity
Christendom’s religions,
as well as Judaism and Islam, have conflicting ideas on the subject of angels.
Some explanations are vague. For instance, The Anchor Bible
Dictionary states: “There may be a single superior angel and/or a small
group of archangels (usually four or seven).” According to The Imperial
Bible-Dictionary, Michael is the “name of a superhuman being, in regard
to whom there have in general been two rival opinions, either that he is the
Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, or that he is one of the so-called seven
archangels.”
In Jewish tradition
these seven archangels are Gabriel, Jeremiel, Michael, Raguel, Raphael, Sariel,
and Uriel. On the other hand, Islam believes in four archangels, namely,
Jibril, Mikal, Izrail, and Israfil. Catholicism also believes in four
archangels: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel. What does the Bible say? Are
there several archangels?
The Bible’s Answer
Aside from Michael, no
archangel is mentioned in the Bible, nor do the Scriptures use the term
“archangel” in the plural. The Bible describes Michael as the archangel,
implying that he alone bears that designation. Hence, it is reasonable to
conclude that Jehovah God has delegated to one, and only one, of his heavenly
creatures full authority over all other angels.
Aside from the Creator
himself, only one faithful person is spoken of as having angels under
subjection—namely, Jesus Christ. (Matthew 13:41; 16:27; 24:31) The apostle Paul
made specific mention of “the Lord Jesus” and “his powerful angels.” (2
Thessalonians 1:7) And Peter described the resurrected Jesus by saying: “He is
at God’s right hand, for he went his way to heaven; and angels and authorities
and powers were made subject to him.”—1 Peter 3:22.—go2 2/8-16-17
While there is no
statement in the Bible that
categorically identifies Michael the archangel as Jesus, there is one scripture that links Jesus with the office of archangel.
In his letter to the Thessalonians, the
apostle Paul prophesied: “The Lord himself will descend from heaven with a
commanding call, with an archangel’s voice and with God’s trumpet, and those
who are dead in union with Christ will rise first.” (1 Thessalonians 4:16) In
this scripture Jesus is described as having assumed his power as God’s
Messianic King. Yet, he speaks with “an archangel’s voice.” Note, too, that he
has the power to raise the dead.
While on earth as a
human, Jesus performed several resurrections. In doing so, he used his voice to
utter commanding calls. For example, when resurrecting the dead son of a widow
in the city of Nain, he said: “Young man, I say to you, Get up!” (Luke 7:14,
15) Later, just before resurrecting his friend Lazarus, Jesus “cried out with a
loud voice: ‘Lazarus, come on out!’” (John 11:43) But on these occasions,
Jesus’ voice was the voice of a perfect man.
After his own resurrection,
Jesus was raised to a “superior position” in heaven as a spirit creature.
(Philippians 2:9) No longer a human, he has the voice of an archangel. So when
God’s trumpet sounded the call for “those who are dead in union with Christ” to
be raised to heaven, Jesus issued “a commanding call,” this time “with an
archangel’s voice.” It is reasonable to conclude that only an archangel would
call “with an archangel’s voice.”
Yes, there are other
angelic creatures of high rank, such as seraphs and cherubs. (Genesis 3:24;
Isaiah 6:2) Yet, the Scriptures point to the resurrected Jesus Christ as the
chief of all angels—Michael the archangel.

The ancient Hebrews (as well as the early Christians) would
have been shocked by the types of words we use today, especially when it comes to
words that imply infinity. They viewed everything (and rightly so) as having a
beginning and an end. For that reason, you don’t find many words in their
writings that imply no beginning or end, although such words were available in
Greek.
The word used at Revelation 3:14 and translated as ‘the
earliest creation’ here is arche (ar kay). If you take a look at some of
the words that are derived from arche in modern English, you get an idea
of the true broad range of meanings of this ancient word, and none of theses
meanings implies infinity. Examples include:
·
Arch or arc: A high rounded peak
·
·
Archbishop: The highest bishop
·
Archeology: A study of ancient things or beginnings
·
Archaic: Something that is old.
All these applications are similar to the many ways the term
is used in the Bible. So, the opening words of Genesis and the book of John,
‘En arche,’ mean ‘In an ancient time,’ a time that had a beginning. And at
Revelation 3:14, Jesus is referred to as ‘the earliest creation
of God’ (gr. ‘he arche tes ktiseos tou Theou’ – or – ‘the ancient of the
creation of the God’) which implies an early (not eternal) time.
