What golden nuggets can we find in the Torah portion Naso Bamidbar 4:21-7:89 and Haftarah reading from the book of Judges? In Judges 13:8 we read about “Malach Elohim” the Angel of G-d. This same Angel wrestles with Jacob Genesis chapter 32 and appeared to Gideon in Judges 6, to name just a couple. This Angel is spoken about by our Hebrew sages and referred to as Sar ha Panim (the Prince of the countenance).

Rabbi Shaul in the book to the Messianic Jews (Hebrews) in chapter 1 verses 1-4 says "In days gone by, G-d spoke in many and varied ways to the fathers through the prophets. But now, in the last days he has spoken to us through his Son to whom he has given ownership of everything and through whom he created the universe.

This Son is the radiance of the Sh'chinah, the very expression of G-d's essence, upholding all that exists by his powerful word and after he had through himself made purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of ha G'dulah BaM'romim (The Greatness on High or the euphemistic way of saying Y'H'V'H- hvhy )

The only way we could ever see G-d without dying as Manoach, Gideon, Jacob and all our prophets knew was through the manifestation of the living G-d, expressed as the Son...Ben Elohim. Yeshua the Messiah was this Ben Elohim, the Torah made flesh, the Sar Panim. Numbers 6:24-26 in the Aaronic benediction expresses "May his face shine upon you..." again in reference to Sar ha Panim, the living presence of G-d.
