AMPLIFIED 2015 | Jude 1:9 But even the archangel Michael, when he was disputing with the devil (Satan), and arguing about the body of Moses, did not dare bring an abusive condemnation against him, but [simply] said, "The Lord rebuke you!" [Deut 34:5, 6; Zech 3:2] |
Bible Question:
Am I mistaken in thinking the archangel is bad? In Jude 1:9 "But Michael the archangel, when he disputed with the devil and argued about the body of Moses, did not dare pronounce against him a railing judgment, but said, "The Lord rebuke you!"" I was always under the assumption that the archangel was like the devil. Please help me on this |
Bible Answer: "Am I mistaken in thinking the archangel is bad?" Yes. "I was always under the assumption that the archangel was like the devil. " No. The archangel is "like" the devil only in that the devil was an angel before he fell, but not "like" in that the Archangel did not fall, but continued to serve God. In Jude 9, the archangel is simply not usurping God's perogative of judgement, but leaving that to the Lord. See Act 12:7. Emmaus |
