Now the angel of the LORD found Hagar by a spring of water in the desert—the spring along the road to Shur.
Commentary on Genesis 16:72 voices
(Verse 7) And the angel of the Lord found her by a fountain of water in the desert, by the fountain on the way to Shur. Then the Egyptian woman hurriedly went on the way to Shur, which leads through the desert to Egypt.

And the angel of the Lord found her,....

- Genesis 16:9
So the angel of the LORD told her, “Return to your mistress and submit to her authority.”
Commentary on Genesis 16:92 voices
As in concrete image, we see here foreshadowed the fact that once the Emmanuel has appeared and his mystery has been shown to the world, the types of the Mosaic cult necessarily disappear, giving way to the evangelical teachings, the better and more perfect precepts. Of what image am I speaking? Because Sarah had not had children, Hagar, after having given birth to Ishmael, began to show arrogant contempt for her owner, the free woman. Sarah was unable to bear that arrogance and began also to mistreat the Egyptian woman.

- Genesis 22:11
Just then the angel of the LORD called out to him from heaven, “Abraham, Abraham!” “Here I am,” he replied.
Commentary on Genesis 22:112 voices
And the Angel of the Lord called unto him out of heaven,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The angel of the Lord - The very person who was represented by this offering; the Lord Jesus, who calls himself Jehovah, Gen 22:16, and on his own authority renews the promises of the covenant. He was ever the great Mediator between God and man. See this point proved, Gen 15:7 (note).
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Exodus 3:2
There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a blazing fire from within a bush. Moses saw the bush ablaze with fire, but it was not consumed.
Commentary on Exodus 3:22 voices
And the Angel of the Lord appeared unto him,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
When the almighty Lord of the universe began to legislate through the Word and decided to make his power visible to Moses, he sent Moses a divine vision with the appearance of light, in the burning bush. Now a bramble bush is full of thorns. So too when the Word was concluding his legislation and his stay among men as their Lord, again he permitted himself to be crowned with thorns as a mystic symbol.
Clement of Alexandria· The Instructor Book 2, 215Patristic
- Exodus 14:19
And the angel of God, who had gone before the camp of Israel, withdrew and went behind them. The pillar of cloud also moved from before them and stood behind them,
Commentary on Exodus 14:192 voices
And the Angel of God which went before the camp of Israel,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The angel of God - It has been thought by some that the angel, i.e., messenger, of the Lord, and the pillar of cloud, mean here the same thing. An angel might assume the appearance of a cloud; and even a material cloud thus particularly appointed might be called an angel or messenger of the Lord, for such is the literal import of the word מלאך malach, an angel.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Numbers 22:23
When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD standing in the road with a drawn sword in his hand, she turned off the path and went into a field. So Balaam beat her to return her to the path.
Commentary on Numbers 22:232 voices
And the ass saw the angel of the Lord standing in the way,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
And the ass saw the angel - When God granted visions those alone who were particularly interested saw them while others in the same company saw nothing; see Dan 10:7; Act 9:7.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Numbers 22:25
And the donkey saw the angel of the LORD and pressed herself against the wall, crushing Balaam’s foot against it. So he beat her once again.
Commentary on Numbers 22:252 voices
And when the ass saw the angel of the Lord,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Now what was the guilt which Balaam incurred, but that he spoke one thing, and designed another? For God requires a clean vessel, not one defiled by uncleanness and pollution. Balaam therefore was tried, not approved, for he was full of deceit and treachery.
Ambrose of Milan· Letters 41-50, 397Patristic
- Numbers 22:27
When the donkey saw the angel of the LORD, she lay down under Balaam, and he became furious and beat her with his staff.

- Numbers 22:35
But the angel of the LORD said to Balaam, “Go with the men, but you are to speak only what I tell you.” So Balaam went with the princes of Balak.
Commentary on Numbers 22:352 voices
And the angel of the Lord said unto Balaam, go with the men,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Go with the men - A command, not a permission merely. Balaam, no longer a faithful servant of God, was henceforth overruled in all his acts so that he might subserve the divine purpose as an instrument. Num 22:26 A city of Moab - Or, Ir-Moab, probably the same with Ar-Moab Num 21:

- Judges 2:1
Now the angel of the LORD went up from Gilgal to Bochim and said, “I brought you up out of Egypt and led you into the land that I had promised to your fathers, and I said, ‘I will never break My covenant with you,
Commentary on Judges 2:12 voices
And an angel of the Lord came up from Gilgal to Bochim,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The angel of the Lord (not an angel). - The phrase is used nearly 60 times to designate the Angel of Gods presence. See Gen 12:7 note. In all cases where the angel of the Lord delivers a message, he does it as if God Himself were speaking, without the intervening words Thus saith the Lord, which are used in the case of prophets. (Compare Jdg 6:8; Jos 24:2.)
Albert Barnes· Notes, Explanatory and Practical, on the Old and New Testaments (1832-1869)Evangelical
- Judges 6:11
Then the angel of the LORD came and sat down under the oak in Ophrah that belonged to Joash the Abiezrite, where his son Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress to hide it from the Midianites.

John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
When Jerubbaal, as we read, was beating out wheat under an oak, he received a message from God in order that he might bring the people of God from the power of strangers into liberty.

- Judges 6:12

John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
When Jerubbaal, as we read, was beating out wheat under an oak, he received a message from God in order that he might bring the people of God from the power of strangers into liberty.
Ambrose of Milan· On the Holy Spirit, Book 1.1, 397Patristic
- Judges 6:21
Then the angel of the LORD extended the tip of the staff that was in his hand and touched the meat and the unleavened bread. And fire flared from the rock and consumed the meat and the unleavened bread. Then the angel of the LORD vanished from his sight.
Commentary on Judges 6:212 voices
And Gideon, moved by that message, when he heard that, though thousands of the people failed, God would deliver His own from their enemies by means of one man, offered a kid, and according to the word of the Angel, laid its flesh and the unleavened cakes upon the rock, and poured the broth upon them. And as soon as the Angel touched them with the end of the staff which he bore, fire burst forth out of the rock, and so the sacrifice which he was offering was consumed.
Ambrose of Milan· On the Holy Spirit, Book 1, 397Patristic
Then the angel of the Lord put forth the end of the staff that was in his hand,....

- Judges 6:22
When Gideon realized that it was the angel of the LORD, he said, “Oh no, Lord GOD! I have seen the angel of the LORD face to face!”
Commentary on Judges 6:222 voices
And when Gideon perceived he was an angel of the Lord,.... By the miracle wrought, and the manner of his departure: Gideon said, alas!
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
Alas, O Lord God! for because I have seen - This is an elliptical sentence, a natural expression of the distressed state of Gideons mind: as if he had said, Have mercy on me, O Lord God! else I shall die; because I have seen an angel of Jehovah face to face. We have frequently seen that it was a prevalent sentiment, as well before as under the law, that if any man saw God, or his representative angel he must surely die. On this account Gideon is alarmed, and prays for his life.
Adam Clarke· Commentary on the Bible, 1832Evangelical
- Judges 13:3
The angel of the LORD appeared to the woman and said to her, “It is true that you are barren and have no children; but you will conceive and give birth to a son.
Commentary on Judges 13:32 voices
And the angel of the Lord appeared unto the woman,....
John Gill· Exposition of the Old Testament (1748-1763)Reformed
The angel of the Lord - Generally supposed to have been the same that appeared to Moses, Joshua, Gideon, etc., and no other than the second person of the ever-blessed Trinity.
