9 But Michael, the archangel, when contending with the devil and arguing about the body of Moses, dared not bring against him an abusive condemnation, but said, “May the Lord rebuke you!”
Michael, the archangel-The great prince who leads the heavenly army of God
When the archangel Michael was debating with Satan, he rebuked him in the name of the Lord. Michael relied on God’s power rather than his.
Satan wanted the body of Moses so he could bury him at a certain place to make a shrine out of him. He wanted the Israelites to worship Moses instead of God. Satan will use any opportunity he can get to make you abandon the Lord.
