God's top messenger angel — delivered some of the most important announcements ever
One of two named angels in Scripture (along with Michael). He appeared to Daniel to explain visions, to Zechariah to announce John the Baptist's birth, and to Mary to announce Jesus' conception. When he shows up, it's a big deal. He literally told Mary 'do not be afraid' — which is how you know the assignment was significant.
Daniel receives a series of stunning visions about future empires, cosmic battles, and the ultimate triumph of God's kingdom.
