Bible Question: Why did no-one help the angel who came to daniel in DANIEL 10 except michael |
Bible Answer: It is a common believe that one angel comes for one message/purpose. An example would be the three that visit Abraham came with three messages. I have read some ancient Jewish "midrashim" (Commentaries) that make this statement and it seemed to me that it was commonly held. Therefore, Michael was sent because there was only one message. This answer is NOT directly from scripture and should not be taken as a definitive truth. The book of Enoch has a lot about angels that the first century Jewish person would have been aware of. This is not a Biblical text, and it was not thought to be authoritative in Jesus day, but it was well known. MJH |
