Angel of the Lord Appearances in Psalms, Isaiah, Daniel, Zechariah and Malachi



Psalm 34:7

David tells us the Angel of the Lord camps around those who fear Him (Yahveh), and He rescues them.

Psalms 35:5-6

David wants his enemies thrown down and chased by the Angel of the Lord.

Isaiah 63:9

Isaiah, inspired by the Holy Spirit, writes whenever the people of Israel were in trouble, “Angel in whom He (Yahveh) revealed Himself saved them.”

Ezekiel 1:26

Ezekiel in a vision sees a form that looked like a Man. The Man is no other than the eternal Son who afterwards took the human form.

Here is something interesting: Ezekiel also sees a rainbow in the background where the “Man” was standing. The rainbow is a familiar reminder of the covenant El Shaddai (God the Son) made to Noah (Genesis 9:8-13).

Daniel 3:25-28

An Angel (God the Son) who looks like Son of God rescues Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego from the furnace.

Zechariah 1:7-13

The Angel of the Lord comforts Israel.

Zechariah 3:4-5

An Angel of the Lord who has the power to Judge and take away sins.

Malachi 3:1

And the Lord whom you're looking for will suddenly come to His temple, yes, the Angel of the covenant whom you delight in--He will come," says the LORD of armies.

The Angel of the covenant is none other than Jesus Christ.
