Exodus 3:1 And Moses was feeding the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian; and he brought the sheep near to the wilderness, and came to the mount of Horeb. 2 And an Angel of the Yehovah appeared to him in flaming fire out of the bush, and he sees that the bush burns with fire, —but the bush was not consumed. 3 And Moses said, “I will go near and see this great sight, why the bush is not consumed.” 4 And when Yehovah saw that he drew near to see, God called him out of the bush, saying, “Moses, Moses”; and he said, “What is it?” 5 And He said, “Do not draw near here. Loose your sandals from off your feet, for the place whereon you stand is holy ground.” 6 And He said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob”; and Moses turned away his face, for he was afraid to gaze at God.
First, as I'm sure you already know, "God" in the passage above is Elohim, or the singular version, Eloah. Also, I used "Yehovah" which is the same as YHWH or Yahweh.
Second, the Angel of Yehovah appeared in the burning bush, and God called to him out of the bush. Therefore, the Angel of Yehovah = God. God = Angel of Yehovah.
Third, the Angel of Yehovah appeared in the bush and then Yehovah saw Moses draw near. Therefore, the Angel of Yehovah is also named Yehovah. Therefore, Yehovah = Angel of Yehovah = God.
Fourth, since Yehovah and the Angel of Yehovah have the same name, how are they related? In Genesis 6:4 (as well as Jubilees and Enoch) says the angels are the sons of God. Therefore, the Angel of Yehovah is the Son of Yehovah. Therefore, the relationship between Yehovah and the Angel of Yehovah is Father and Son. Both have the name Yehovah.
Fifth, it is the Angel, the Son, who said, "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.”
Sixth, Yehoshua (Jesus) stated that He was the Son of God and did many miracles to prove it. Therefore, Yehoshua/Jesus IS the Angel of Yehovah that led the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt. He has been the shepherd of Israel all these centuries. The same God that came in a great cloud, thundering, lightening, and a loud trumpet at Horeb, is the same God that gave Himself as an offering for the sins of Israel, and the world. How great is His love for His people?!
Seventh, since Jesus is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, how can any Jew "convert" to being a believer in Yehoshua Ha Moshiach, Jesus the Christ? Therefore, believing (and carefully studying) Moses makes plain who the God of Israel is, just as Jesus said.
John 5:45 Do not think that I shall accuse you to the Father; there is one who accuses you—Moses, in whom you trust. 46 For if you believed Moses, you would believe Me; for he wrote about Me. 47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe My words?”
I have never heard any of this taught anywhere. I tried to be as brief as possible. How do you understand these things? Has anyone else learned or been taught about Jesus being the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob? Discovery of these things has been a great faith booster to me and I think it could help many other as well. Do you agree with my analysis here? Thanks, John.
