Hebrew word to draw out.

      Thus it follows powerfully and irrefutably that the God who led the people of Israel out of Egypt and through the Red Sea, who guided them in the wilderness through the pillars of cloud and fire, who nourished them with heavenly bread, and who performed all the miracles Moses describes in his book, who also brought them into the land of Canaan and then gave them kings and priests and everything, is therefore God and none other than Jesus of Nazareth, the Son of the Virgin Mary, whom we call Christ our God and Lord . . . And, again, it is he who gave Moses the Ten Commandments on Mount Sinai, saying, “I am the Lord your God who led you out of Egypt; you shall have no other gods.” Yes, Jesus of Nazareth, who died for us on the cross, is the God who says in the First Commandment, “I, the Lord, am your God.” (AE 15:313–14)

      Among modern interpreters, there is of course the aforementioned Charles Gieschen. The following theologians and exegetes (particularly of the Lutheran tradition) have taken this position on the Angel of YHWH: Hengstenberg, Christology of the Old Testament, 1:115–30; Hoenecke, Evangelical Lutheran Dogmatics, 2:170–73; Leupold, Genesis, 1:500–501. Hoenecke mentions the following Lutherans who hold this view: Kahnis, Lutherische Dogmatik, 1:396–97, 399; Keil, Bibelsk Commentar uber Genesis, 126; Philippi, Kirchliche Glaubenslehre, 2:19, 194; Rohnert, Dogmatik der Evangelisch-Lutherischen Kirche, 145. Also, among older non-Lutheran interpreters, Gieshen (“Real Presence of the Son,” 106) mentions the following: Alexander, Isaiah, 2:394; Borland, Christ in the Old Testament; T. Hanson, Jesus Christ in the Old Testament; Rhodes, Christ Before the Manger.
