[Ariel Burton ]
(1995 -11 -24 )Angel a word signifying ,
both in the Hebrew and Greek ,
a "
messenger ,"
and hence employed to denote any agent God sends forth to execute his purposes .
It is used of an ordinary messenger (
Job 1 :
14 :
1 Sam .
11 :
3 ;
Luke 7 :
24 ;
9 :
52 ),
of prophets (
Isa .
42 :
19 ;
Hag .
1 :
13 ),
of priests (
Mal .
2 :
7 ),
and ministers of the New Testament (
Rev .
1 :
20 ).
It is also applied to such impersonal agents as the pestilence (
2 Sam .
24 :
16 ,
17 ;
2 Kings 19 :
35 ),
the wind (
Ps .
104 :
4 ).
But its distinctive application is to certain heavenly intelligences whom God employs in carrying on his government of the world .
The name does not denote their nature but their office as messengers .
The appearances to Abraham at Mamre (
Gen .
18 :
2 ,
22 .
Comp .
19 :
1 ),
to Jacob at Peniel (
Gen .
32 :
24 ,
30 ),
to Joshua at Gilgal (
Josh .
5 :
13 ,
15 ),
of the Angel of the Lord ,
were doubtless manifestations of the Divine presence ,
"
foreshadowings of the incarnation ,"
revelations before the "
fulness of the time "
of the Son of God .
(
1 .)
The existence and orders of angelic beings can only be discovered from the Scriptures .
Although the Bible does not treat of this subject specially ,
yet there are numerous incidental details that furnish us with ample information .
Their personal existence is plainly implied in such passages as Gen .
16 :
7 ,
10 ,
11 ;
Judg .
13 :
1 -
21 ;
Matt .
28 :
2 -
5 ;
Heb .
1 :
4 ,
etc .
These superior beings are very numerous . "
Thousand thousands ,"
etc . (
Dan .
7 :
10 ;
Matt .
26 :
53 ;
Luke 2 :
13 ;
Heb .
12 :
22 ,
23 ).
They are also spoken of as of different ranks in dignity and power (
Zech .
1 :
9 ,
11 ;
Dan .
10 :
13 ;
12 :
1 ;
1 Thess .
4 :
16 ;
Jude 1 :
9 ;
Eph .
1 :
21 ;
Col .
1 :
16 ).
(
2 .)
As to their nature ,
they are spirits (
Heb .
1 :
14 ),
like the soul of man ,
but not incorporeal .
Such expressions as "
like the angels " (
Luke 20 :
36 ),
and the fact that whenever angels appeared to man it was always in a human form (
Gen .
18 :
2 ;
19 :
1 ,
10 ;
Luke 24 :
4 ;
Acts 1 :
10 ),
and the titles that are applied to them ("
sons of God ,"
Job 1 :
6 ;
38 :
7 ;
Dan .
3 :
25 ;
comp .
28 )
and to men (
Luke 3 :
38 ),
seem all to indicate some resemblance between them and the human race .
Imperfection is ascribed to them as creatures (
Job 4 :
18 ;
Matt .
24 :
36 ;
1 Pet .
1 :
12 ).
As finite creatures they may fall under temptation ;
and accordingly we read of "
fallen angels ."
Of the cause and manner of their "
fall "
we are wholly ignorant .
We know only that "
they left their first estate " (
Matt .
25 :
41 ;
Rev .
12 :
7 ,
9 ),
and that they are "
reserved unto judgement " (
2 Pet .
2 :
4 ).
When the manna is called "
angels '
food ,"
this is merely to denote its excellence (
Ps .
78 :
25 ).
Angels never die (
Luke 20 :
36 ).
They are possessed of superhuman intelligence and power (
Mark 13 :
32 ;
2 Thess .
1 :
7 ;
Ps .
103 :
20 ).
They are called "
holy " (
Luke 9 :
26 ), "
elect " (
1 Tim .
5 :
21 ).
The redeemed in glory are "
like unto the angels " (
Luke 20 :
36 ).
They are not to be worshipped (
Col .
2 :
18 ;
Rev .
19 :
10 ).
(
3 .)
Their functions are manifold . (
a )
In the widest sense they are agents of God '
s providence (
Ex .
12 :
23 ;
Ps .
104 :
4 ;
Heb .
11 :
28 ;
1 Cor .
10 :
10 ;
2 Sam .
24 :
16 ;
1 Chr .
21 :
16 ;
2 Kings 19 :
35 ;
Acts 12 :
23 ). (
b )
They are specially God '
s agents in carrying on his great work of redemption .
There is no notice of angelic appearances to man till after the call of Abraham .
From that time onward there are frequent references to their ministry on earth (
Gen .
18 ;
19 ;
24 :
7 ,
40 ;
28 :
12 ;
32 :
1 ).
They appear to rebuke idolatry (
Judg .
2 :
1 -
4 ),
to call Gideon (
Judg .
6 :
11 ,
12 ),
and to consecrate Samson (
13 :
3 ).
In the days of the prophets ,
from Samuel downward ,
the angels appear only in their behalf (
1 Kings 19 :
5 ;
2 Kings 6 :
17 ;
Zech .
1 -
6 ;
Dan .
4 :
13 ,
23 ;
10 :
10 ,
13 ,
20 ,
21 ).
The Incarnation introduces a new era in the ministrations of angels .
They come with their Lord to earth to do him service while here .
They predict his advent (
Matt .
1 :
20 ;
Luke 1 :
26 -
38 ),
minister to him after his temptation and agony (
Matt .
4 :
11 ;
Luke 22 :
43 ),
and declare his resurrection and ascension (
Matt .
28 :
2 -
8 ;
John 20 :
12 ,
13 ;
Acts 1 :
10 ,
11 ).
They are now ministering spirits to the people of God (
Heb .
1 :
14 ;
Ps .
34 :
7 ;
91 :
11 ;
Matt .
18 :
10 ;
Acts 5 :
19 ;
8 :
26 ;
10 :
3 ;
12 :
7 ;
27 :
23 ).
They rejoice over a penitent sinner (
Luke 15 :
10 ).
They bear the souls of the redeemed to paradise (
Luke 16 :
22 );
and they will be the ministers of judgement hereafter on the great day (
Matt .
13 :
39 ,
41 ,
49 ;
16 :
27 ;
24 :
31 ).
The passages (
Ps .
34 :
7 ,
Matt .
18 :
10 )
usually referred to in support of the idea that every individual has a particular guardian angel have no such meaning .
They merely indicate that God employs the ministry of angels to deliver his people from affliction and danger ,
and that the angels do not think it below their dignity to minister even to children and to the least among Christ '
s disciples .
The "
angel of his presence " (
Isa .
63 :
9 .
Comp .
Ex .
23 :
20 ,
21 ;
32 :
34 ;
33 :
2 ;
Num .
20 :
16 )
is probably rightly interpreted of the Messiah as the guide of his people .
Others have supposed the expression to refer to Gabriel (
Luke 1 :
19 ).
