Description
How many archangels are there? It depends on the text. 1 Enoch 20 names seven. 1 Enoch 40 names four. The King James Bible gives the title by name to only two, Michael and Uriel. This guide sets out every answer with its verse, and follows the names from Daniel and Luke to Tobit, 2 Esdras, 1 Enoch, Jubilees and the Testaments of the Twelve Patriarchs.
It also explains where Satan, Belial, Mastema and Metatron come from, and why Lucifer is not on the list. The roster at the back was built by script: a name is included only where the cited passage both names the figure and describes it.
Includes: 56-page PDF · eight chapters · a roster of 42 named figures · 95 checked quotations · a table of every answer to "how many?" · a plate of the seven holy angels of 1 Enoch 20
