Rabbi Singer on Whether Jesus Is the Angel of the Lord

Rabbi Singer points out that the Hebrew word malach (or angel) means messenger. So we need to put aside Renaissance paintings of winged creatures! Malach can refer to ‘spiritual’ messengers like the angels Gabriel or Michael. But also describes humans sent to do a duty — such as the spies hidden by Rahab (Joshua 6:17). <h2>What the New Testament teaches about the angel of the Lord</h2> His main argument is that the New Testament denied Jesus was the angel of the Lord. Before we look at Rabbi Singer’s approach, it’s worth reviewing Jesus’ teaching. <a href="https://medium.com/interfaith-now/rabbi-singer-on-whether-jesus-is-the-angel-of-the-lord-3026a9fee636">Website</a>
