Raphael was a painter of biblical figures during the rennisance, not an actual person in The Bible. Answer 2: Of course Raphael is in the Bible, he is an archangel. You will find him in the apocryphal Book of Tobit.

The angels mentioned in the Torah, the older books of the Hebrew Bible, are without names. Rabbi Shimon ben Lakish of Tiberias (A.D. 230-270), asserted that all the specific names for the angels were brought back by the Jews from Babylon, and modern commentators would tend to agree. Raphael is named in several Jewish apocryphal books.

Raphael is not mentioned in most Bibles as most do not contain the apocryphal books. The only place in modern 'scripture' where Raphael is to be found is in the apocryphal book of Tobit (12:15). In Roman Catholic and Orthodox Bibles Tobit is regarded as scriptural, but in all other Bibles, especially protestant Bibles, Tobit is not regarded as scriptural but is included in the Apocrypha.

"Raphael"... saint or otherwise, is not in the Bible.

Wrong!! St Raphael, the Archangel is found in the book of Tobit starting in chapter 1 and continuing throughout the book. 30 seconds with Google would have showed you that.

You will not find Raphael in any standard Bible like the KJV, NKJV, NIV, NSRV, etc. The RC Bible will include the Apocryphal book of Tobit where his name appears.

sorry. I've studied the bible for quite a while and can say that there is no mention of saint Bridget there. Just so you know... There is no mention of anyone called by name that is a saint in the bible. Saints are mentioned in the bible as all the souls of the righthous that died as martyrs and are now waiting to be risen out of the graves at Jesus second comming. All other reference to the saints are not biblical.Catholic Answer:The Bible was written and its contents determined hundreds of years before Bridget was born so she is not mentioned in the Bible.
