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.

Is Michael the Ruler of Israel? Further Proof that Jesus isn’t an Archangel Pt. 2 Members Public

The Gods of Heaven: Are the Angels Really Divine Beings? Pt. 1 Members Public

In this series of posts I will examine the OT passages that are commonly used to show the existence of a heavenly assembly of divine beings surrounding God. My intention isn’t to deny that a heavenly council of spiritual creatures exists, since it clearly does: “And Micaiah said, ‘Therefore
