Saint Michael Earrings "EXCLUSIVE"
Description
Saint Michael is an archangel, one of the principal angels in Christian tradition. He is viewed as the good Angel of Death
(as opposed to Samael, the evil Angel of Death), and as the field commander of the Army of God. He is mentioned by name in
the Book of Daniel[dubious discuss] and the Book of Revelation. In the book of Daniel, Michael appears as "one of the
chief princes" who in Daniel's vision comes to the angel Gabriel's aid in his contest with the angel of Persia (Dobiel),
and is also described there as the advocate of Israel and "great prince who stands up for the children of your [Daniel's]
people".
The Talmudic tradition rendered his name as meaning "who is like El?". In recent years, a popular mistake has become to
translate the name as "One who is like God." It is, however, meant as a question: "Who is like the Lord?" The name was
said to have been the battle cry of the angels in the war in heaven against Satan and his followers.
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, regard him as their patron. He is also a patron of Germany[4] and of the city of Brussels.
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".
