Exploring the Angel of the Lord and Theological Implications

This chapter dives into a theological discussion about the nature of the angel of the Lord, potentially being the second person of the Trinity in a post-resurrectional body, and Christ's presence in heaven without change. It challenges traditional understandings of embodiment and presence in different realms, touching on eternal realities and the concept of the firstborn of creation. The chapter also emphasizes the significance of the angel of the Lord in the Old Testament and its role in protecting the Israelites, with discussions on biblical passages and translations pointing to Jesus as the intended figure.
