The Angel is Christ
Commentators overwhelmingly identify the 'angel' not as a created being, but as the 'Angel of the Covenant'—the pre-incarnate Son of God, Jesus Christ. Scholars like Calvin, Gill, and Henry point to the angel's divine authority and the New Testament's confirmation in 1 Corinthians 10:9. This angel embodies God's own presence, sent to lead His people.
