Hey John,
I was thinking today about what you said about angels being deliverers of messages only. Were the angels that ministered to Elijah after his journey and to Jesus following the Temptation for example, sending them a message?
Thanks, Jim K.

Hi Jim.
Messengers deliver things from one source to another. Those “things” may be words or, as in the cases you mentioned, other things. In both cases, the angels had been sent by God with instructions to feed those two desperate men. The food was their “message”.
The main point is that none of those angels did anything on their on. Had they not been sent, they would not have gone to Elijah or Jesus. That is what makes them messengers.
