“When the Angels appeared to Abraham, they were in the form of a human being, they even had the ability to eat food...”
Hi Tara. This is one most people get wrong (imho). Most people think one of the angels is god in the flesh or preincarnate Jsus. It actually isnt!
At the very begining, Abraham is visited by G-ds Shekinah or Presence...THEN the three angels (physically as men) appear. Each Angel has a specific task. The first one gives Sarah the message that she will have a child....then he takes off. Now, you have G-ds Shekinah present with the remaining two Angels and then they take off for Sodom to perform their tasks there. G-ds Shekinah was still present and they discussed the fate of Sodom.
So, Angels can be physical manifestions of men (Job wrestled one) These three ate. But G-d become a man? No All references of G-d having human like features are anthropomorphisms..An arm, feet, face, backside or even, wings. Two times...and when Torah tells you something twice...pay close attention!....in Deut 4, G-d says “You saw NO FORM...only a voice from the fire....So what ever you do, do NOT give me a form...anything in heaven or on earht, male or female...nada!
No..I understand that completely, what I am trying to say is that G-d in his infinite wisdom has created some kind of supernatural scientiic process that can transform a Spiritual Entity into a Physical Entity, the fact that G-d has no form does not make it impossible for G-d to transform into the Physical, otherwise the Angels would be greater than G-d if they could do something G-d cannot do..
No?
If God did not become human, then what sacrifice do you have by which God may justly and righteously provide you with a human spirit discernible from our soul?
