‘After these things I saw another angel coming down out of Heaven, having great authority, and the earth was lightened with his glory.'
Another great angel is seen as involved with the fulfilling of God's final purposes. Note that none of these angels are ever named apart from Michael, who is named because he is the angel prince of Israel (Revelation 12:7). While prominent, they maintain an anonymous position for they seek no glory for themselves. They are all equally God's servants and none will seek to obtain prominence over another. (How different we are today). So effective is the presence of this angel that earth itself indirectly perceives his presence by a ‘lighting up' with his glory.
