In Lehi’s discussion of the Fall to his son Jacob, “Adam” is mentioned (2 Nephi 2:19). According to Arthur Bailey, in Hebrew, Adam, means “man” or “mankind”; the scriptures provide the following meanings of the name--“first man” (D&C 84:16), “man” (Moses 1:34), and “first father” (Abraham 1:3), all denoting his historical role as the grand progenitor of the entire human family. Michael, meaning “who is like God” (Bible Dictionary, s.v. “Michael”), is also identified as the archangel (see D&C 29:“26). [Arthur A.
