The term "messenger" can refer to both human and angelic beings, each serving distinct purposes within the biblical narrative. Human Messengers Human messengers are often chosen by God to deliver His messages to individuals, groups, or nations. These messengers can be prophets, priests, or other appointed individuals. For example, the prophets in the Old Testament frequently served as God's messengers, delivering His words to the people of Israel. In <a href="/haggai/1-13.htm">Haggai 1:13</a> , it is written, "Then Haggai, the messenger of the LORD, delivered the message of the LORD to the people: 'I am with you,' declares the LORD." In the New Testament, John the Baptist is a prominent example of a human messenger. He is described as the one who prepares the way for the Lord, fulfilling the prophecy of Isaiah. In <a href="/matthew/11-10.htm">Matthew 11:10</a> , Jesus refers to John, saying, "This is the one about whom it is written: 'Behold, I will send My messenger ahead of You, who will prepare Your way before You.'" Angelic Messengers Angelic messengers are spiritual beings sent by God to deliver messages, provide guidance, or execute divine judgments. Angels are often depicted as God's servants who carry out His commands with precision and authority. One of the most well-known angelic messengers is Gabriel, who appears in both the Old and New Testaments. In <a href="/daniel/8-16.htm">Daniel 8:16</a> , Gabriel is instructed to explain a vision to Daniel: "And I heard a man's voice from the Ulai calling, 'Gabriel, explain the vision to this man.'" In the New Testament, Gabriel is sent to Mary to announce the birth of Jesus. <a href="/luke/1-26.htm">Luke 1:26-28</a> states, "In the sixth month, God sent the angel Gabriel to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin pledged in marriage to a man named Joseph, who was of the house of David. And the virgin's name was Mary. The angel appeared to her and said, 'Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.'" Role and Function Messengers in the Bible serve various functions, including delivering divine revelations, warning of impending judgments, and providing guidance or encouragement. They often act as intermediaries between God and humans, ensuring that His will is communicated clearly and effectively. In some instances, messengers also serve as protectors or executors of God's judgment, as seen in the account of the angel of the LORD striking down 185,000 Assyrian soldiers in <a href="/2_kings/19-35.htm">2 Kings 19:35</a> . Symbolism and Significance The role of messengers in the Bible underscores the importance of communication between the divine and the earthly realms. Messengers symbolize God's active involvement in human history and His desire to guide, instruct, and redeem His people. They remind believers of God's sovereignty and His ability to intervene in the world through chosen instruments, whether human or angelic. In summary, messengers in the Bible are vital agents of God's will, serving as conduits for His messages and actions. Their presence throughout the biblical narrative highlights the ongoing relationship between God and His creation, emphasizing the importance of obedience, faithfulness, and the fulfillment of divine purposes.<a name="grk" id="grk"></a><div class="vheading2">Greek</div><a href="/greek/32a.htm">32a. aggelos -- a messenger, angel</a> ...
