No angel is ever worshipped in Scripture; therefore, Jesus (worthy of worship) cannot be Michael or any other angel (not worthy of worship). The angels are called sons of God (Genesis 6:2-4; Job 1:6; 2:1; 38:7), but Jesus is THE Son of God (Hebrews 1:3, 8; Matthew 4:3-6; Galatians 4:1; John 14:9; John 17:10).
Geneva Bible Notes, 1599 - Hebrews 1:4
(4)Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent (i)name than they.
(4)Before he comes to declare the office of Christ, he sets forth the excellency of his person. First of all he shows him to be man, and that in addition he is God also.
(i)Dignity and honour.

Something to chew on ;D
Heb 2:7 You made him lower than the angels for a short time; You crowned him with glory and honor 8 and subjected everything under his feet. For in subjecting everything to him, He left nothing not subject to him. As it is, we do not yet see everything subjected to him. 9 But we do see Jesus- made lower than the angels for a short time so that by God's grace He might taste death for everyone-crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death. 10 For it was fitting, in bringing many sons to glory, that He, for whom and through whom all things exist, should make the source of their salvation perfect through sufferings.

It is great Jesus lowered Himself to become man so He would die for our salvation. From God to man for us.
