ANGELS (Part 6)

Jehovah, The “Unseen” God?

Read Isaiah 6:1-7

55. Who was it that Isaiah saw in this vision?

56. Does this passage suggest the existence of yet a different kind of angel?

57. How does a Seraph differ from a Cherub?

Note: In Hebrew, the im ending to a word signifies the plural. Hence a Seraph is one, Seraphim is plural.

58. Did Isaiah actually see Jehovah, or did he merely see Him in vision?

59. Was it actually God-the-Father he saw, or could it have been another of the same name? Remember that father and son commonly share the same family name.

Read Exodus 23:20-21

60. Was this an angel or a messenger?

61. By what name would he have been called?

62. Who would this messenger have been?

Conclusion:

In this lesson we have established that there is one in the Old Testament called Jehovah who is other than the Father. That one is the person we now know as Jesus Christ. He was the Word of God, the Messenger of the Father. In the next lesson, we will study the nature of Christ and the nature of the Holy Spirit.
