Byzantine Hand Painted Icon of the Synaxis of the Holy Archangels.
The Archangels belong to the Nine Orders of Angels created by God for his glory and the fulfillment of his will. They are Bodiless, with superior knowledge to that of mortals and a soul without sins.
At the head of the Angelic Orders are the Archangels Michael and Gabriel, who serve God and glorify his greatness.
Troparion
Commanders of the heavenly hosts, / we who are unworthy beseech you, / by your prayers encompass us beneath the wings of your immaterial glory, / and faithfully preserve us who fall down and cry to you: / “Deliver us from all harm, for you are the commanders of the powers on high!”
