The New Testament speaks frequently of angels ( for example, angels giving messages to Mary, Joseph, and the shepherds ; angels ministering to Christ after his temptation in the wilderness, an angel visiting Christ in his agony, angels at the tomb of the risen Christ, the angels who liberate the Apostles Peter and Paul from prison ); however, it uses the word " archangel " only twice: " When the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, was disputing about the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a blasphemous judgment, but said, ' The Lord rebuke you '" (); and " The Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God " ().
