Michael is one of only 3 angels mentioned by name in the Bible. In the Epistle of Jude, Michael is specifically referred to as "the archangel Michael", he is not a Saint! An Archangel, in angelic rank = Prince or General. Angels were written about more at the end of the Old Testament period. In Daniel, Archangel Michael, as the main angel in charge of protecting Israel, he is referred to as the 'Prince' of Israel. One of 7 great Princes in command of the forces of heaven, a protector and the leader of the army of God against the forces of evil. In the New Testament Michael leads God's armies against Satan's forces (Revelation 12:7), and vanquishes the Dragon (Satan) and his host of fallen angels. He is one of the most popular of angelic figures, with many churches dedicated to St Michael and All Angels. The name “Michael” means “Who is like God?”

Michael is also depicted in the non-canonical literature as the recording angel, and as the angel who carries the souls of the righteous into paradise. This was a theme that figures in the medieval requiem mass.
