[Jerusalem]

I found the following at a website:

7archangels.info/

“In 1050 St. Celias made an exhaustive study of the approved writings of the Early Church Fathers up to the 4th century. In this way we have come to know the names of all 7 of these mighty Archangels, the meaning of their names and the sacrament each is patron of. Since the 4th century these 7 Archangels have been honored in the Roman Martyrology.”

I only have two questions:
1.) What book is this referring to? I just want to know the name
of the book.
2.) Does anyone know the full name of this Saint Celias or have
any info about him?

**If you mean the Roman Martyrology, it’s a list of all saints with brief lives, arranged by calendar date, who are traditionally commemorated in the Latin rite.

It does not claim to be exhaustive. Each day’s entry concludes, “And elsewhere, many other confessors, martyrs, and holy virgins.”

Benedictines, Dominicans, and other orders have a proper Martyrology of their own saints.

It corresponds to the Byzantine Synaxarion or Prologue.

You can find the Roman Martyrology (though not the latest edition) on line at

I’m not impressed by the website. As one example it states Uriel is an Archangel but as Father Serpa said the Catholic Church does not consider Uriel even an angel.
