1390	ENT_ZOR_AMESHA_SPENTAS	received_as	ENT_ISR_MICHAEL	low	The six Amesha Spentas (divine beings surrounding Ahura Mazda, each embodying a virtue) parallel the emergence of named archangels surrounding Yahweh in Second Temple angelology (1 Enoch 20 names seven: Michael, Gabriel, Raphael, Uriel, Saraqael, Raguel, Remiel). Both systems feature a high god surrounded by a council of named divine beings, each with a specific cosmic domain, in traditions that were in direct contact during the Persian period. Michael is cited as the most prominent archangel. Confidence low: the structural parallel is suggestive but the transmission is not textually demonstrable; parallel development is possible.
