Is Michael the Ruler of Israel? The Witness of the Dead Sea Scrolls Members Public

In this post (/2019/08/29/is-michael-the-ruler-of-israel-further-proof-that-jesus-isnt-an-archangel-pt-4/), I am going to appeal to the Dead Sea Scrolls (DSS) to provide further proof that Jesus cannot be the archangel Michael.

In this post, I am going to provide further proof that Jesus cannot be the archangel Michael if we assume that Michael is a spirit being created by Jehovah God.(1) I will also address some of the arguments set forth by Arian apologist Gregory Stafford, founder of a recent
