Archangel: An angel of the highest rank: in Christian legend, one of the seven, in the Koran one of the four chief angels: in Roman Catholic theology a member of the eighth of nine divisions of angels. The names of the archangels vary, although the first four are generally Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel. In the apocalyptic Enoch, they are listed as Uriel, Raphael, Raguel, Michael, Sariel, Gabriel, and Jerahmeel. In the Koran the list includes Gabriel, angel of revelations, Michael, the champion who fights the battles of faith, Azrael, the angel of death, and Israfel, who is to sound the Trumpet of resurrection.
