What does Jude 9 teach about Michael the archangel?

Answered in 1 source

Jude 9 describes Michael contending with the devil, emphasizing the authority of God's word.

In Jude 9, Michael the archangel contests with Satan over the body of Moses, not to bring accusations, but instead states, 'The Lord rebuke you.' This highlights the principle that disputes about doctrine and faith should be settled by God's word rather than personal attacks. The focus here is on the authority of Christ, whom Michael represents as He contends against accusations from Satan and secures His people's justification through His righteousness.
Scripture References: Jude 9, Revelation 12:7-10, Zechariah 3:1-4
