From the Hebrew name (Mikha'el) meaning 'who is like God?' This is not a statement and does not mean Michael who is like God; in fact it is a rhetorical question, implying no person is like God. Saint Michael was one of the seven archangels in Hebrew tradition and the only one identified as an archangel in the Bible. In the Book of Revelation in the New Testament he is portrayed as the leader of heaven's armies, and thus is considered the patron saint of soldiers. __Etymology is the study of the origins of words. The etymology of a word is its linguistic history. For example, the word etymology comes to us from the Ancient Greek language. It is composed of two parts; the Greek word etymon, which means 'the true sense of a word', combined with the Greek element logia, which means 'doctrine, study'. Combining these two parts gives us 'the study of the true sense of words', which can be said to be the 'meaning' of the word etymology. The etymology of names is the study of the origin and literal meaning of names.
