@The Word God literally said. When moses asked saying who should I *say* sent me. And God said tell them I AM hath sent you. For I AM That I AM. I am YHWH(is made up of the two words I AM). THAT'S why the Jews picked up stones and wanted to stone Him. Because Jesus called himself by God's name.

Dear Rusty, we were JW as well and this video’s helped us in the beginning to walk the path of discovering who God is. Because here they are close to what JW are telling. However , the way Christ is portayed here, is not entirely what is in the Scripture, because the disciples clearly stated that that Jesus was Gods Son, not any angel what so ever. After the leaving of JW I had much difficulites to discern what is true and what is not. The fact is, it not black and white. We are are now born again Christians and very happy. If you ever want to talk, please let me now. Regards, Don
Here’s a few verses: Jehovah our God is one Jehovah. -Deuteronomy 6:4. I am Jehovah that is my name. -Isaiah 42:8. So where do you get a trinity? Even the term does not appear in the Bible.
Yeah it's confusing to me.....the Bible says no angel has ever sat at the right hand of God.....so how would an angel that became human through a miraculous birth involving the Holy Spirit ever be able to sit at the right hand of God? Because He isn't an angel now? Or He never was an angel and this video is leading people astray by leaning on our own understanding when we shouldn't?
Praise be to the lord the God and the savior Jesus Christ. For he has looked apon me and have not given up on me due to my stobborness. He is the great I AM because nothing i ever say about him and no matter how much i praise him, it will never be enough to begin to describe his glory. Amen
I've personally met Him. Never seen with my eyes but felt physically and spiritually 100 percent. And He is still with me today. Thank you God thank you Holy spirit thank you Jesus!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
The Holy Spirit is bringing the church back into the knowledge of the ancient concepts that the biblical writers understood when they recorded the scriptures. This is thorough and necessary, and should be exposed to all Christians who want to understand these often passed over concepts in Scripture.
I agree. I don't want to get too critical of the theologians and councils that produced the creeds--most of them were far better-read in the scriptures than I am. But I still can't shake the feeling that too many denominations are giving the creeds precedence over the plain text of scripture, even as they give lip-service to a "Sola Scriptura" approach to the Bible. That strikes me as dangerous, tantamount to "teaching as doctrines the commandments of men" as warned of in Matthew 15:9. I'm not saying that appealing to the plain text will necessarily force us all to the same conclusions about what that text means or how to resolve apparent contradictions. A good-faith appeal to the text of the Bible can still produce valid disagreements about doctrine. But I wish we could at least all agree on a scripture-first approach to having these discussions.
If teachers in churches understood that those that teach the Word are supposed to be called in the same way as pastors, evangelists, and missionaries things would be different. Unfortunately, people think anyone with a spare moment and a Sunday School planner and curriculum can teach the Bible.
I thought He already knew. I mean this was Jesus incarnated into a human being . Jesus showed up in the Old testament so He knew His duty . Wouldn't He have already known?
@@taylor_almond4274 Jesus showing up doesn’t really mean much since we (at least I) that when Jesus was born he didn’t remember anything and he came to a gradual understanding of who he was, since he was doubting who he was when the devil tempted him in the desert Jesus didn’t give in to doubt but I still think it was there
Woah i never knew the angel of the Lord was also God. It makes sense especially when Moses wanted to SEE God. God had to show him a version of Himself that was allowed on earth's terms.
I had this epiphany sometime ago. I noticed everytime The Angel of Lord appeared from Genesis and onwards, He spoke with the authority of God and at times the subjects even offered worship. I found that interesting and could only come to the conclusion that this was a incarnation of Jesus. John 8:58 gave a clue "before Abram was even born. I AM". It's a mind blowing bible study.
Me! I'm a fan of mythologies, then I thought, it's a shame of me to know all the gods in different beliefs but not our own. So I studied the hierarchy of angels first, and then I was here! Hahaha
As a person in the film industry I really appreciate these videos, because I understand the hard work that goes behind each and every animated video! So thank you to the bible project team ✨it’s really nice to have amazing content to watch as a Christian filmmaker 💕
I’m so glad to know that there are Christian filmmakers and animators out there! I don’t know any in real life, but am praying to make some friends who are
Much agreed! As a believer it can be difficult on set. So many people who are on the opposite end and so many “projects” for evil that I find myself praying thru or avoiding all together. It’s beautiful to see some beautiful work like the Bible Project
I love when Manoah asks the angel of the lord if he’s the same being who appeared to his wife beforehand and the angel of the lord responds with “I AM”
Every time I read or hear that phrase it sends chills up my spine. I couple months ago every time I turned around I encountered that phrase. I believe God was telling me that He was/is always with me and He is bigger than any problem I might have. 🙏
Every time more knowledge about Yahweh is added to my mind, the more I don't understand who Yahweh is... Yet, it gives me comfort that He indeed knows how the world works, inviting us to trust Him in every single moment of our lives.
@@kurisu3289 I recently did some Word study with a friend who had a brilliant insight regarding God's name. He suggested that when God said "I am" to Moses, He did more than just say the Name. He Breathed life in front of Moses. I'm guessing that's why Moses was afraid. Beyond hearing Yaweh's name, Moses felt it. I'm guessing that's why Hebrew primarily has consonants. YHVH, when pronounced, sounds like Breathing. But that's just my guess. But that's just my opinion. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Interesting. That makes total sense! The "angel of the Lord" was the best term they found to say that God was in a spiritual state that they could see.
@@JamesRichardWiley I've been watching alot of bible studie videos and I keep seeing you on here being a troll, are you really trying so hard to belive that GOD is not real that you got to try so hard to try and put his followers down, I pray that one day you will find GOD.
One of the most fascinating and mysterious spiritual beings in the Hebrew Scriptures is the character called “the angel of the Lord.” Ancient and modern readers have puzzled over this figure because he is described in a way that seems paradoxical: as a being who is distinct from Yahweh the God of Israel (“the angel of Yahweh”) but who talks and acts as if he is Yahweh. For example, when he appears to Hagar (Genesis 16:7-13) and Moses (Exodus 3:1-4), he is called an “angel,” but also “Yahweh,” and even “God.” And when this angel comes to Gideon (Judges 6:11-24), he speaks as if Yahweh is distinct from himself (“Yahweh is with you, O mighty warrior!” Judg 6:12), but then the narrator calls this figure “Yahweh” (“Yahweh said…” Judg 6:16). We’re then told that “the angel of Yahweh disappeared” (Judg 6:21), only to find Yahweh still there talking to Gideon (Judg 6:23)! And it gets even more mind-bending! The figure that Moses sees in the burning bush (Exod 3:2) is the same figure who leads Israel out of Egypt in the pillar of fire and cloud (Exod 14:19-20), who settles in cloud and fire atop Mt. Sinai (Exod 19:18-20), and whose glory-cloud settles over the finished tabernacle (Exod 40:34-38). This is the same figure who appears to the prophets Isaiah (Isaiah 6:1-6) and Ezekiel (Ezekiel chs. 1 and 10). When you back up, you see these stories are all coordinated and pointing to the startling claim that Yahweh’s identity in the Hebrew Scriptures is a complex unity. Yahweh is invisible, transcendent, and above all, as Solomon says: “The heavens and the heavens of the heavens cannot contain you!” (1 Kings 8:27). However, this God is also ever-present in all of creation (make a cup of tea and ponder Psalm 139!). When the biblical authors describe the localized, embodied presence of God in a single place and time, they introduce the “angel of Yahweh,” a human-looking figure who is both Yahweh and distinct from Yahweh. This ancient biblical belief of the “complex unity” of Yahweh is the seedbed of the ideas expressed in the early messianic Jesus movement. Jesus talked about himself as both distinct from God (“the Son”) but also as “one with the Father” (see John 10:30). Or, as the introduction to John’s Gospel puts it: “The Word was with God, and was God” (John 1:1). That may seem like a contradiction to modern readers. But to anyone familiar with the portrait of the angel of Yahweh in the Hebrew Scriptures, the claim of the New Testament begins to make more sense (as much as it can, at least!). The angel of Yahweh was Yahweh appearing as a human, and Jesus of Nazareth is that Yahweh figure become human. For more information, read through our video notes here: bit.ly/2uaFLFu
I believe you are missing a critical piece of information that, if understood, would clarify the events read in the Bible. Namely that (except Jesus The Messiah) no one has heard the direct voice of God. This will sound like a contradiction, but it is not. What people do not fully understand is that God uses Angels as Messenger(s). Everyone knows that. What they do not know is that when God speaks to a man/woman or prophet; He does not speak directly to them. (as in using his direct voice) Instead, it is an Angel who arrives and acts as a stand-in and echos the words of God. The Angel hears, then speaks what he hears. Acting like a loudspeaker with a thundering voice or a gentle voice that Mankind can perceive. The same is true of the Holy Spirit. It hears what God says and it repeats. Leading to a communion with God without direct communication. Again, it seems as if it were a contradiction that no man has heard God. But it is in fact true. (Except Jesus) No one has seen him directly either, otherwise they would die. God goes through extra-ordinary lengths to hide his face from people [Clouds, Fire, etc], even appointing "Covering" Angels so that people do not witness Him directly....and die. --------------------------- "Angel of the Lord" is factually correct. They (the people who are witnesses to these event in the Bible), do see an Angel (a spirit) [either as a humanoid form or a moving phenomena] and it utters the words of God verbatim but they themselves are not hearing the direct voice of God. They are only hearing His message. So it is called "An Angel of the Lord". Are you catching on? Basically put, the things people identify with God are actually Avatars of phenomena or Angels who act as intermediaries and deliver a message from God.
The Jesus is the Son of the God and Savior of the Wold (Galatians 4:5) (John 8:25-29)......The Almighty God is Jehovah(Yahweh)-(Isaiah 12:2 Psalms 68:4 Jeremiah 16:21 Hosea 12:5)..... Worship the Almighty Jehovah(Yahweh) through Jesus Chrirst...Amen
I am so grateful for these videos. It has been opening my eyes to how I read scripture. This is perfect timing because I was just reading through Genesis 16 and this gives such great insight into the "angel of the Lord". God is so mysterious and so personal. Blessed be his name!

@@flutterby3842 I can't find the podcast series on God and spiritual beings on their website. I only find several podcast series on other topics there. Can you tell me where to find it?
I have also experienced this. It is a gift, an amazing treasure and astonishing!!... that's the best way I can describe it! I can't physically see God but this light finds me and has spoken to me or in another occasion has entertained me by putting on a wonderous heavenly show that leaves my heart with wonder and joy. Than after, I am puzzled and wonder if anyone else has just seen what I witnessed. And because they're usually non-believers.. They say no, what are you talking about I didn't see anything! This is how I know it's a gift God has given me. I can not access it whenever I want though. It's not like I say to it.. appear! And it obeys or anything like that... This wonderous spirit usually shows up after I've spent time talking with God, or meditating on God. Or I ask God a bunch of questions. It's really quite fascinating!!
LGMAX Yes, HIS mercies are new every morning! my mother taught us growing up to pray for GODS mercies and to show mercy to others...HIS MERCY ENDURES FOREVER.😊
Ive been studying the theophany, and its mind-blowing!!! Every time an angel appears to someone in scripture, they speak "of" God, but every time The Angel of The Lord appears to someone in scripture, he speaks "as" God !!!
Wow. That’s all I can say… the way you guys handle something so complex and make understandable amazes me.. also God amazes me, this series has been a REAL eye opener to how GREAT our God really is. I thank God for using you 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Y'all have broken down some tough ideas in the Bible making it easy to so many of us who might not academically study Christianity, perhaps even invoking the urge learn more even... thanks! Shalom ❤
omggg I'm so happy you guys discussed the Angel of the Lord especially the link with Jesus himself, cuz sometimes I'd imagine that when the holy people in the old testament interacted with God especially when human descriptions were used I would always imagine they were actually talking to Jesus ! and John 8:56 when Jesus also referred to himself as "I AM that I Am" and "Abraham was glad to see me " I was like omgggg it could actually have been Jesus in the old testament. The Holy Trinity is so complex and beautiful!
Great presentation, based on the word of God. That's why it is very important not to just read the bible but to really understand it with the help of the Holy Spirit that's in us once we truly trusted the Lord Jesus Christ. Thanks for this. New Subscriber here from the Philippines. God bless your ministry more! To God be the glory!
@NRM Jesus is the Son of the Father, never the Father in any form whatsoever. Jesus is entirely distinguishable from the Father and Jesus mentioned this often. The only true God is How Father and His God.
NRM: You can't use Isaiah 9:6 to say that Christ is the Everlasting Father. The name being mentioned there refers to the government given to the Child, not the nature or state of being of the Child or Jesus.
NRM: Don't put your own quotations and present them as facts. There are no Bible verses that say that the Father or God ever became human. That's just your own opinion and not biblical facts. God the Father is spirit and not man nor did He ever become man because He's the unchanging God (John 4:24; Hosea 11:9; Malachi 3:6). You can't use Isaiah 9:6 to prove that Christ is the Everlasting Father because the government given to Him is from the Everlasting Father, not of Himself (Matthew 28:18).
all I really need to know is that the bible describes Jesus as "the word made flesh" that on its own has so many interpretations. trying to come to a certain conclusion will only jam my mind
Does anyone else miss the little clips of Tim and Jon at the ending of the videos? I always loved seeing them talk in person and discuss the video, even if it was for thirty seconds.

So good! You guys are killing it with this series! I've between studying this stuff for quite a few years now (Dr. Heiser has been particularly helpful) but the way you sum things up so succinctly is amazing. And the visual aspect adds so much!! Thank you! Keep up the good work!! I'll definitely be sharing.
"And Angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. 10 And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:9-11 "Angel of the Lord" appears to shepherds and says "Jesus is over there!" "To which of the Angels did God ever say 'You are my Son, today I have begotten you?'" Heb 1:5 I don't think Angel of YHWH is Jesus. The bible never makes the connection, and I think we should expect it to if it were indeed the case.
These videos are a beautiful creation of the Spirit. Thank you so much for listening to the Lord and then sharing the gifts and fire that he shared with you!!!
So pumped been loving this series ! Been watchign from Miami , i always want to meet brothers and sisters in CHRIST , let me know if you ever want to hang out !
I love bible projects they dicect the bible very greatly and they give more understanding to the more complex books etc. Thank u ... Praise be to God❤️❤️
The actual translation for the title of this “angel” is, “Messenger Yahweh”. So yes this is actually one way that God appears to humans. Messenger Yahweh.
This series is truly an answer to so many of my questions. It's all beginning to make more sense--but I also understand, that as humans, we'll never fully understand. God is amazing!
Style PANIC Universe it’s super dense but it’s so worth it. I’ve never heard the Bible in its own ancient context and I’m so amazed by it. It’s so much more powerful so much more interesting when you get the whole picture in detail. And Heiser is the man that will lay everything out.
When Goku has a new power it's one he's never had before or something other Saiyans can achieve. Jesus is always God alongside the Father and the Spirit. He always knows what He can do but chose not to make use of His full power and authority when He was incarnated. He willingly showed more of His Divinity to Peter and the others.
Woah. You guys make it seem like Bible is a masterpiece (well ofcourse it is) but this is whole new level! The more we know God, the more we fear and respect Him. Thanks for sharing all of this !!!
I really appreciate this. I've had so many people confront my understanding that the angel of the Lord is Jesus pre-incarnation, but they all said it was blasphemy merely because of the word "angel", thinking that I believe Jesus is a creation of God, not Yahweh himself. Thanks for a video to clear that up.
I saw angles twice, once in a vision on a very sleepless, dark night. Some angels aren't there to mess around. That angel was terrifying. It's no wonder anymore that the guards at Jesus tomb fell down like dead men. "His appearance was like lightning" is a very accurate description. It's not a comfortable sight. It's thatsame feeling and sense of dread when a speeding lorry flies past you at 60 or when you see a massive tidal wave but instead of that feeling passing, its there looking at you surrounded without and within by incomprehensible light.
Whoa!! Amazinggg teaching! I love to learn heavenly things that was purposed for us, before we were born! He loves us so much! We love you Yahweh!!!! 🥰💗😁😇
Thank you for this. I remember telling my old Pastor that I thought that The Angel of The Lord was Jesus before he came in human form, and I think he thought that I didn't know what I was talking about. The references to him in The Bible are very specific. And they sound like they are referencing The Lord to me. So this video is very validating.
"And Angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. 10 And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people.

Luke Jones normally I would agree but I think you’re reaching a bit. There’s reason to believe that the Angel of the Lord is not a created being like the Archangels and the cherubim. He speaks as if He is God and making claims only God can make. No mere created being can make the claims that the Angel of the Lord did. I don’t think the Hebrew writers meant to draw confusion with the nature of the character but rather emphasize the role this character plays. Angel is meant to mean messenger in this context. Honestly, I can see how it can draw confusion. When Jesus came into the picture, he was accused of making claims and doing things that only God can do, just as the Angel of the Lord did. And Jesus himself is coined by John to be the Word of God, or His messenger, just like the Angel of the Lord is called by the Hebrew writers. There are way too many parallels to ignore and I only scratched the surface. Ex. When Jesus said that Abraham has seen him, which he could be referring to when abraham met him at his tent in genesis. A lot of things are knitting together. I watched this video over 20 times now because its absolutely fascinating.
@@lukejones5272 No you are missing the point actually...yes in the new testament there was angel of Lord presented many times...but it's not the same as in the old testament like ' the Angel of the LORD'...do u see the difference??? LORD means YAHWEH...normal Lord means master most probably...so the angel of the Lord in new testament is not the angel of YAHWEH...and also whenever the angel of the LORD is mentioned in old testament..there's always this word 'the' before the word 'angel' but when a normal angel is addressed in both old testament and new testament...most of the times there is the word 'an' infront of the word 'angel'...and also I think the angel of LORD is not an angelic being but more divine (like Jesus during transfiguration probably) and appeared as a man many of times to many people (Judges 13:6)...so the angel of LORD almost looks like an angel but maybe more devine or more superior but not an angelic being...normal angels are an angelic being...also people have always recognised angels as angels and also have recognised them by names...but during the occasion of this angel of the LORD...this particular angel doesn't have any names...in fact when people like Manoah and Jacob asked what the name is...the angel never said it's name...and also people never saw this angel as a normal angel but in fact they saw him as God...that's why they always said that they saw God face to face...caz they saw this angel of LORD face to face who is God himself...because He(God) is visible to them in this form!!!
@@nethaniahamos_targaryen1892 Yeah, that sounds great. Except nothing in the bible even hints that Jesus is the Angel of YHWH. Nothing. Everything you (and the video) said is speculation and not coming from the Scriptures. And Hebrews 1 and 2 pretty clearly say he is certainly not an angel. He's a man. John 8:40, 1 Tim 2:5, Acts 2:22, Rom 5, etc.
@@lukejones5272 but the Angel of the Lord (in the OT) isn’t an Angel either. He’s clearly something different, and based on all the contextual clues, He is God. As to which person of the trinity is being manifested, that is speculation, but nothing in scripture says that it can’t be a Christophany.
Im still very new to the Holy Bible, and I thank God for the greater understanding that I have now than when I first started reading it. So I felt silly asking God this question earlier, but it’s amazing how he uses us as a vessel to minister to others and bring revelation. So I asked God, if you are spirit, then what was Jesus before he became flesh? My question was just answered 🤯 God is good 🙌🏽 Thank you for this revelation. You are so faithful my Lord 😊
God bless you more!!!! I love this channel. I'm new here yet I already love it a lot. So much to learn. Thank you for this and all you videos, may God continue to bless all the people behind this channel.
You can tell that He is God because when people in the bible WORSHIP the angel of the Lord, He does not refuse it. Other angels in the bible will tell anyone who starts to worship them "Get up, stop, don't do that, I'm not God."
The more you know, the more you realize that there's more TO know.
In the end there is no god and there is no you.

gods light when I was so sick i preyed i promised PS 119:105.... I Felt God was the last time and it was quick not real nice ..why would it be ...
H Badger for sure. Jesus told us we are now the temples of God. So Gods spirit now lives in us rather than in the temple.
The Holy Spirit is bringing the church back into the knowledge of the ancient concepts that the biblical writers understood when they recorded the scriptures. This is thorough and necessary, and should be exposed to all Christians who want to understand these often passed over concepts in Scripture.
I agree. I don't want to get too critical of the theologians and councils that produced the creeds--most of them were far better-read in the scriptures than I am. But I still can't shake the feeling that too many denominations are giving the creeds precedence over the plain text of scripture, even as they give lip-service to a "Sola Scriptura" approach to the Bible. That strikes me as dangerous, tantamount to "teaching as doctrines the commandments of men" as warned of in Matthew 15:9.
I'm not saying that appealing to the plain text will necessarily force us all to the same conclusions about what that text means or how to resolve apparent contradictions. A good-faith appeal to the text of the Bible can still produce valid disagreements about doctrine. But I wish we could at least all agree on a scripture-first approach to having these discussions.
Jordan Jnee AMEN!
@@joshua_tobler what you said is not from your own understanding but whats been given to you.
If teachers in churches understood that those that teach the Word are supposed to be called in the same way as pastors, evangelists, and missionaries things would be different.
Unfortunately, people think anyone with a spare moment and a Sunday School planner and curriculum can teach the Bible.
I love how Jesus knew who he was from day one, remember when marry thought she lost him, and he was in the temple.
Maybe not day one but still really young , I think he sort of gradually came to understand just who he was
I thought He already knew. I mean this was Jesus incarnated into a human being . Jesus showed up in the Old testament so He knew His duty . Wouldn't He have already known?
@@taylor_almond4274 Jesus showing up doesn’t really mean much since we (at least I) that when Jesus was born he didn’t remember anything and he came to a gradual understanding of who he was, since he was doubting who he was when the devil tempted him in the desert
Jesus didn’t give in to doubt but I still think it was there
Luke 2:52, "And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man."
@@iangonzalez4661yes agreed.
Woah i never knew the angel of the Lord was also God. It makes sense especially when Moses wanted to SEE God. God had to show him a version of Himself that was allowed on earth's terms.
I had this epiphany sometime ago. I noticed everytime The Angel of Lord appeared from Genesis and onwards, He spoke with the authority of God and at times the subjects even offered worship. I found that interesting and could only come to the conclusion that this was a incarnation of Jesus. John 8:58 gave a clue "before Abram was even born. I AM". It's a mind blowing bible study.
Why is your god playing these silly games with Moses?
Is he bored?
God is supposed to be invisible and unknowable.
Who decided the angel of the Lord was also God,
and that is true because?
The Angel of the Lord is the HOLY SPIRIT

@@kurisu3289 I recently did some Word study with a friend who had a brilliant insight regarding God's name. He suggested that when God said "I am" to Moses, He did more than just say the Name. He Breathed life in front of Moses. I'm guessing that's why Moses was afraid. Beyond hearing Yaweh's name, Moses felt it. I'm guessing that's why Hebrew primarily has consonants. YHVH, when pronounced, sounds like Breathing. But that's just my guess. But that's just my opinion. Correct me if I'm wrong.
Jeremiah Gallo No that’s actually spot on!

THE BIBLE IS LITERALLY SO INTERESTING!! I LOVE IT, IT IS FULL OF MYSTERIES AND SECRETS. ily Jesus, ty for showing me this page for more understanding.
One of the most fascinating and mysterious spiritual beings in the Hebrew Scriptures is the character called “the angel of the Lord.” Ancient and modern readers have puzzled over this figure because he is described in a way that seems paradoxical: as a being who is distinct from Yahweh the God of Israel (“the angel of Yahweh”) but who talks and acts as if he is Yahweh. For example, when he appears to Hagar (Genesis 16:7-13) and Moses (Exodus 3:1-4), he is called an “angel,” but also “Yahweh,” and even “God.” And when this angel comes to Gideon (Judges 6:11-24), he speaks as if Yahweh is distinct from himself (“Yahweh is with you, O mighty warrior!” Judg 6:12), but then the narrator calls this figure “Yahweh” (“Yahweh said…” Judg 6:16). We’re then told that “the angel of Yahweh disappeared” (Judg 6:21), only to find Yahweh still there talking to Gideon (Judg 6:23)! And it gets even more mind-bending! The figure that Moses sees in the burning bush (Exod 3:2) is the same figure who leads Israel out of Egypt in the pillar of fire and cloud (Exod 14:19-20), who settles in cloud and fire atop Mt. Sinai (Exod 19:18-20), and whose glory-cloud settles over the finished tabernacle (Exod 40:34-38). This is the same figure who appears to the prophets Isaiah (Isaiah 6:1-6) and Ezekiel (Ezekiel chs. 1 and 10). When you back up, you see these stories are all coordinated and pointing to the startling claim that Yahweh’s identity in the Hebrew Scriptures is a complex unity. Yahweh is invisible, transcendent, and above all, as Solomon says: “The heavens and the heavens of the heavens cannot contain you!” (1 Kings 8:27). However, this God is also ever-present in all of creation (make a cup of tea and ponder Psalm 139!). When the biblical authors describe the localized, embodied presence of God in a single place and time, they introduce the “angel of Yahweh,” a human-looking figure who is both Yahweh and distinct from Yahweh. This ancient biblical belief of the “complex unity” of Yahweh is the seedbed of the ideas expressed in the early messianic Jesus movement. Jesus talked about himself as both distinct from God (“the Son”) but also as “one with the Father” (see John 10:30). Or, as the introduction to John’s Gospel puts it: “The Word was with God, and was God” (John 1:1). That may seem like a contradiction to modern readers. But to anyone familiar with the portrait of the angel of Yahweh in the Hebrew Scriptures, the claim of the New Testament begins to make more sense (as much as it can, at least!). The angel of Yahweh was Yahweh appearing as a human, and Jesus of Nazareth is that Yahweh figure become human. For more information, read through our video notes here: bit.ly/2uaFLFu
Interesting..
The Bible Project So does this mean ‘The Son’ in the Trinity is divided into two: The Angel of the LORD & Jesus?
I believe you are missing a critical piece of information that, if understood, would clarify the events read in the Bible.
Namely that (except Jesus The Messiah) no one has heard the direct voice of God. This will sound like a contradiction, but it is not.
What people do not fully understand is that God uses Angels as Messenger(s). Everyone knows that. What they do not know is that when God speaks to a man/woman or prophet; He does not speak directly to them. (as in using his direct voice)
Instead, it is an Angel who arrives and acts as a stand-in and echos the words of God. The Angel hears, then speaks what he hears. Acting like a loudspeaker with a thundering voice or a gentle voice that Mankind can perceive.
The same is true of the Holy Spirit. It hears what God says and it repeats. Leading to a communion with God without direct communication.
Again, it seems as if it were a contradiction that no man has heard God. But it is in fact true. (Except Jesus)
No one has seen him directly either, otherwise they would die. God goes through extra-ordinary lengths to hide his face from people [Clouds, Fire, etc], even appointing "Covering" Angels so that people do not witness Him directly....and die.
---------------------------
"Angel of the Lord" is factually correct. They (the people who are witnesses to these event in the Bible), do see an Angel (a spirit) [either as a humanoid form or a moving phenomena] and it utters the words of God verbatim but they themselves are not hearing the direct voice of God. They are only hearing His message.
So it is called "An Angel of the Lord". Are you catching on?
Basically put, the things people identify with God are actually Avatars of phenomena or Angels who act as intermediaries and deliver a message from God.
Jared Sheneman
No. The Angel of the Lord is the pre-incarnate Jesus. Jesus is God the Son, the eternal Word.

I have also experienced this. It is a gift, an amazing treasure and astonishing!!... that's the best way I can describe it! I can't physically see God but this light finds me and has spoken to me or in another occasion has entertained me by putting on a wonderous heavenly show that leaves my heart with wonder and joy. Than after, I am puzzled and wonder if anyone else has just seen what I witnessed. And because they're usually non-believers.. They say no, what are you talking about I didn't see anything! This is how I know it's a gift God has given me. I can not access it whenever I want though. It's not like I say to it.. appear! And it obeys or anything like that... This wonderous spirit usually shows up after I've spent time talking with God, or meditating on God. Or I ask God a bunch of questions. It's really quite fascinating!!

@NRM Jesus is the Son of the Father, never the Father in any form whatsoever. Jesus is entirely distinguishable from the Father and Jesus mentioned this often. The only true God is How Father and His God.
NRM
Read Hosea 11:9
NRM:
You can't use Isaiah 9:6 to say that Christ is the Everlasting Father. The name being mentioned there refers to the government given to the Child, not the nature or state of being of the Child or Jesus.
NRM:
Don't put your own quotations and present them as facts. There are no Bible verses that say that the Father or God ever became human. That's just your own opinion and not biblical facts.
God the Father is spirit and not man nor did He ever become man because He's the unchanging God (John 4:24; Hosea 11:9; Malachi 3:6).
You can't use Isaiah 9:6 to prove that Christ is the Everlasting Father because the government given to Him is from the Everlasting Father, not of Himself (Matthew 28:18).
all I really need to know is that the bible describes Jesus as "the word made flesh" that on its own has so many interpretations.
trying to come to a certain conclusion will only jam my mind
Does anyone else miss the little clips of Tim and Jon at the ending of the videos? I always loved seeing them talk in person and discuss the video, even if it was for thirty seconds.
I think they've taken those out because the videos have become international. It's easier to dub.

I saw angles twice, once in a vision on a very sleepless, dark night.
Some angels aren't there to mess around. That angel was terrifying. It's no wonder anymore that the guards at Jesus tomb fell down like dead men.
"His appearance was like lightning" is a very accurate description.
It's not a comfortable sight. It's thatsame feeling and sense of dread when a speeding lorry flies past you at 60 or when you see a massive tidal wave but instead of that feeling passing, its there looking at you surrounded without and within by incomprehensible light.

Finnaly, this was something that allways confused me in the old testament.
Thank you for this. I remember telling my old Pastor that I thought that The Angel of The Lord was Jesus before he came in human form, and I think he thought that I didn't know what I was talking about.
The references to him in The Bible are very specific. And they sound like they are referencing The Lord to me. So this video is very validating.
"And Angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were filled with great fear. 10 And the angel said to them, “Fear not, for behold, I bring you good news of great joy that will be for all the people. For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord." Luke 2:9-11

I don't think Angel of YHWH is Jesus.
The bible never makes the connection, and I think we should expect it to if it were indeed the case.
Luke Jones normally I would agree but I think you’re reaching a bit. There’s reason to believe that the Angel of the Lord is not a created being like the Archangels and the cherubim. He speaks as if He is God and making claims only God can make. No mere created being can make the claims that the Angel of the Lord did. I don’t think the Hebrew writers meant to draw confusion with the nature of the character but rather emphasize the role this character plays. Angel is meant to mean messenger in this context. Honestly, I can see how it can draw confusion. When Jesus came into the picture, he was accused of making claims and doing things that only God can do, just as the Angel of the Lord did. And Jesus himself is coined by John to be the Word of God, or His messenger, just like the Angel of the Lord is called by the Hebrew writers. There are way too many parallels to ignore and I only scratched the surface.
Ex. When Jesus said that Abraham has seen him, which he could be referring to when abraham met him at his tent in genesis. A lot of things are knitting together.
I watched this video over 20 times now because its absolutely fascinating.
@@lukejones5272 No you are missing the point actually...yes in the new testament there was angel of Lord presented many times...but it's not the same as in the old testament like ' the Angel of the LORD'...do u see the difference??? LORD means YAHWEH...normal Lord means master most probably...so the angel of the Lord in new testament is not the angel of YAHWEH...and also whenever the angel of the LORD is mentioned in old testament..there's always this word 'the' before the word 'angel' but when a normal angel is addressed in both old testament and new testament...most of the times there is the word 'an' infront of the word 'angel'...and also I think the angel of LORD is not an angelic being but more divine (like Jesus during transfiguration probably) and appeared as a man many of times to many people (Judges 13:6)...so the angel of LORD almost looks like an angel but maybe more devine or more superior but not an angelic being...normal angels are an angelic being...also people have always recognised angels as angels and also have recognised them by names...but during the occasion of this angel of the LORD...this particular angel doesn't have any names...in fact when people like Manoah and Jacob asked what the name is...the angel never said it's name...and also people never saw this angel as a normal angel but in fact they saw him as God...that's why they always said that they saw God face to face...caz they saw this angel of LORD face to face who is God himself...because He(God) is visible to them in this form!!!
@@nethaniahamos_targaryen1892 Yeah, that sounds great. Except nothing in the bible even hints that Jesus is the Angel of YHWH. Nothing. Everything you (and the video) said is speculation and not coming from the Scriptures. And Hebrews 1 and 2 pretty clearly say he is certainly not an angel. He's a man. John 8:40, 1 Tim 2:5, Acts 2:22, Rom 5, etc.
@@lukejones5272 but the Angel of the Lord (in the OT) isn’t an Angel either. He’s clearly something different, and based on all the contextual clues, He is God. As to which person of the trinity is being manifested, that is speculation, but nothing in scripture says that it can’t be a Christophany.
Im still very new to the Holy Bible, and I thank God for the greater understanding that I have now than when I first started reading it. So I felt silly asking God this question earlier, but it’s amazing how he uses us as a vessel to minister to others and bring revelation.
So I asked God, if you are spirit, then what was Jesus before he became flesh?
My question was just answered 🤯 God is good 🙌🏽
Thank you for this revelation. You are so faithful my Lord 😊
God bless you more!!!! I love this channel. I'm new here yet I already love it a lot. So much to learn. Thank you for this and all you videos, may God continue to bless all the people behind this channel.
Thank you for this. This helps me to learn more about Him.
Jesus Christ is The Word, The Son Of God, and Jesus is God him self. Enjoyed watching this with love from 🇪🇹 Ethiopia
You can tell that He is God because when people in the bible WORSHIP the angel of the Lord, He does not refuse it.
Other angels in the bible will tell anyone who starts to worship them "Get up, stop, don't do that, I'm not God."
Yes!!! I was waiting for this from a long time and I think the angel of the lord is Jesus
I think .. I don't know if it's true I'll find out soon😂
I knew it .... I just knew it
Boom! My mind has just been blown. That is so awesome! 🤣💗
