Description

Of the seven angelic spirits who chant an unending hymn of praise before the throne of the Most High God, the canonical Scriptures mention three by name: these are the Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael.


The Archangel Michael, whose name means literally “Who is like God?”, is the leader of the heavenly hosts in the war against the spirits of darkness.


Gabriel, the “man of God” foretold to the prophet Daniel the coming of the Messias; he is the Angel of the Annunciation, who uttered the immortal Ave! to the Mother of Our Lord.


Raphael, whose name in Hebrew signifies “God has healed,” may be regarded as the most “human” of these angels because of the special nature of his mission. Raphael is the auxiliary of Providence, the instructor, healer and comforter of mankind. He is frequently spoken of as St. Raphael, and that too is correct, for the word “Saint” comes from the Latin sanctus which means “holy.” Angels, as well as human beings of extraordinary holiness, are called Saints. In the case of human beings, it is necessary that they can be canonized by the Church. This involves a process of investigation into the life, virtues and defects of a person who has given evidence of heroic sanctity. In regard to Angels, however, Holy Scripture itself tells us about their heavenly glory.


It is to the Archangel Raphael that this little booklet will introduce you, so that he might help and comfort you, even as he has aided countless thousands of others whose prayers he has presented to the Divine Omnipotence.
