Bible Question: What proof do you find in Genesis 22 that the angel of the Lord was God Himself? |
Bible Answer: Greetings Hana, I believe you are talking about verse 11 not 10. Angel of the Lord literally means 'messenger of Yahweh'. If you look at Ex 3:2 it says that the Angel of the Lord appeared to him in the burning bush. In verse 6 it says that the voice said "I am the God of your Father - the God of Abraham..." therefore if it says the Angel was God here it must mean the same thing in every other instance.
