Archangel

The archangel is the head of the race of angels. From what we know in Scripture, there is only one named Michael. The archangel Michael has led (and will lead) the angels in battles fought against the demons. Since the term "archangel" is mentioned only twice in the Bible, we have limited knowledge of what the archangel does.
== Etymology ==
The word archangel is the translation of the Greek ἀρχάγγελος (transliterated: archaggelos). Ἀρχάγγελος comes from the Greek words ἄρχω (transliterated: archō, meaning "head or first") and ἄγγελος (transliterated: aggelos, meaning "angel or messenger").
== History ==
