| − | The Holy [[Archangel]] Gabriel has been called the leader of the heavenly hosts and is associated with numerous [[Old Testament]] and [[New Testament]] happenings, particularly his revelation to the [[Theotokos]] that she would bear Christ. Thus his primary role has been called one of announcing the salvation of mankind. The Church celebrates the Synaxis of the Archangel Gabriel on [[March 26]], the day following the Feast of the [[Annunciation]], and again on July 13; he is also commemorated together with all the [[Archangel|Archangels]] on their synaxis date, [[November 8]].
