From verse 4 above it talks of the seven spirits who are before the throne of God. We have discussed that spirits are angels. So these seven spirits are seven special angels who stand before the throne of the Most High. Again harkening back to the book of Enoch, he mentions the seven holy angels who watch and names them and tells us their roles.
“Uriel, one of the holy angels, who is over the world and over Tartarus.
Raphael, one of the holy angels who is over the spirits of men.
Raguel, who takes vengeance on the world of the luminaries.
Michael, he that is set over the best part of mankind and over chaos.
Saraqael, who is over the spirits, who sin in the spirit.
Gabriel, who is over Paradise and the serpents and the Cherubim.
Remiel, one of the holy angels, whom God set over those who rise."
Book of Enoch chapter 20
Gabriel and Michael we are familiar with as they are both named in scripture. If we can presume that other statements quoted from Enoch have veracity, then we must presume that these names are the true names of the arch angels of God. The seven spirit men who stand before His throne.
