If your life is not in jeopardy for what you believe, you’re probably on the wrong side!
“Indeed, all who want to live a godly life united with the Messiah Yeshua will be persecuted.” (2Tim 3:12)
It is what you actually believe that determines how you walk out your faith, “but avoid stupid controversies, genealogies, quarrels and fights about the Torah; because they are worthless and futile.” (Titus 3:9)

Developing a
Systematic Messianic Theology

“The purpose of careful theological formulations is not to put barriers in the way of people who are seeking salvation, but to define clearly the truths upon which genuine [Biblical] faith rests, so that people will not be misled by false doctrines.” [Bowman]

A List of Angelic Appearances

If we read casually through the Scriptures we might be inclined to think that the appearance of angelic messengers was a relatively common event. We must remember, however, that the Scriptures span a period of about four thousand years and in four millennia we have recorded only about 27 separate appearances of angels.

  1. To Avraham at Mamre, with ADONAI (Gen 18:1-22)
  2. To Ya'akov in a dream (Gen 28:10-16)
  3. To Daniel in the lions’ den (Dan 6:22)
  4. Gavri'el interpret’s Daniel’s vision (Dan 8:15-19)
  5. Gavri'el tells Daniel of the Seventy Weeks (Dan 9:20-30)
  6. Gavri'el Tells Daniel of Israel’s future (Dan 10:12-14)
  7. Two additional angels join Gavri'el and Daniel (Dan 12:5-7)

  13. An angel appears to Yosef in a dream (Matt. 1:18-25)
  14. Angels appear to the shepherds (Luke 2:9-14)
  15. An angel sends Yosef and his family to Egypt (Matt 2:13-15)
  16. An angel calls Yosef and his family back to Eretz-Yisra'el (Matt 2:19-21)
  17. Angels ministered to Yeshua after His temptation (Matt. 4:11)
  18. An angel gave Yeshua strength in Gethsemane (Luke 22:43)
  19. An angel rolled away the stone from Yeshua’s tomb (Matt. 28:2-5)
  20. The angel who removed the stone from Yeshua’s tomb appears to Miryam of Magdala, Miryam the mother of Ya`akov, and Shlomit (Mark 16:5-7; John 20:10-12)
  21. Two angels appeared to the Talmidim at Yeshua’s His ascension (Acts 1:10-11)
  22. An angel released Kefa and Yochanan from prison (Acts 5:19)

  24. Cornelius saw an angel in a vision (Acts 10:3,30-32)
  25. An angel released Kefa from prison (Acts 12:7-11)
  26. An angel appeare to Sha'ul on the the ship bound for Rome (Acts 27:23)
  27. Numerous angels appear to Jochanon in his vision on Patmos (this was one long vision and should be counted as one angelic appearance) (Rev. 1:1; Rev. 5:2; Rev. 7:11; Rev. 10:8-9; Rev. 17:7; Rev. 19:9-10; Rev. 22:8)

Appearances of The Angel of ADONAI

Appearances of The Angel of ADONAI are appearances not of angels, but of ADONAI Himself, so they are not counted here as “angelic” appearances.
