Michael and his angels fought with the dragon (Revelation 12:7)
AE 735 [2]
Angels, in the heavens, do not have such names as men on earth have, but they have names expressive of their functions, and in general, to every angel a name is given according to his quality; this is why "name" signifies in the Word the quality of a thing and state. The name Michael means, from its derivation in the Hebrew, who is like God; therefore Michael signifies the Lord in relation to that Divine truth that the Lord is God even as to the Human, and that man must live from Him, that is, in love to Him and from Him, and in love towards the neighbor.
