1More accurately, they symbolise the Father and the Son. There are other typologies which symbolise the relationship of Christ to God.Nigel J– Nigel J2025-02-12 17:41:04 +00:00Commented Feb 12, 2025 at 17:41

@OneGodOneLord I have no problem agreeing with that representation. Since your brought up Genesis 22:12, please notice Vs11, "But the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven, AND SAID, Abraham, Abraham," And he said, "here I am" Vs12, "And he said, (that is the angel of the Lord said) "Do not stretch your hand against the lad, for now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your son, your only son , FROM ME." So, who did Abraham sacrifice his son according to these verses?Mr. Bond– Mr. Bond2025-02-12 19:03:44 +00:00Commented Feb 12, 2025 at 19:03

@Mr. Bond - Abraham serves the God of the Angel, which includes the Angel—not because the Angel is God, but because the Angel carries the Divine Name.user90486– user904862025-02-12 21:46:00 +00:00Commented Feb 12, 2025 at 21:46

You keep assuming the angel of the Lord is an actual angel. Here is what Genesis 22:15-16 states. "Then the angel of the Lord called to Abraham a second time from heaven, vs16, and said, (the angel of the Lord said) By Myself I have sworn, declares the Lord, because (or why?) you have done this thing and have not withheld you son, your only son." So as you stated the angel of the Lord is not God, and it is God who said He swore By Himself, why does God need this angel in the first place to swear for Him when He swore By Himself. Btw, God Himself spoke from heaven at other places in the Bible.Mr. Bond– Mr. Bond2025-02-12 23:02:42 +00:00Commented Feb 12, 2025 at 23:02

@Mr.Bond - The Angel is God's Vizier. Because he carries the Divine Name, he can swear and speak on God's behalf.user90486– user904862025-02-13 00:41:21 +00:00Commented Feb 13, 2025 at 0:41

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. word-study), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
