I need help understanding who this Angel of the Lord is?

[Shalom]

I see this angel causes death to Egypt, in the burning bush, and delivering the 10 commandments in Galations 3... Huuumm! Help! Thanks in advance... I am new to board....Shalom!

The translation of scripture that I study uses the word "messenger" for the Greek "aggelos" that others translate as "angel." Messengers can be either human or celestial, and there are many references to messengers in scripture. I'm wondering why you're assuming the three occasions you're mentioning were the same messenger.

..amen.. I think "the angel of the Lord" refers to any angel.. any faithful angel that is.. "of death" would be messenger of death.."


Shalom to you, Shalom!! :smile: The LORD bless!!

  For me    I do not know   as many angels  serve God      and the seraph  are the fiery ones
  Michael   is   also mentioned by name   as is Gabriel     

     This angel or messenger  , the destroying angel mentioned in Rev  9 "The Destroyer", the angel of the abyss
