The archangel Michael is Israel’s protector. He’s a warrior angel whose Biblical appearances always show him defending Israel. There are some, like Jehovah’s Witnesses for example, who confuse the Archangel Michael with Jesus, but the view is not Biblical. Like other angels, Michael is a created being, whereas Jesus is the Creator, the second person of the Trinity. (John 1:1)
