Questions to ponder;
- What prayer did the angel reference when he spoke to Zechariah?
- Why did Zechariah doubt the angels message?
- What was the purpose of striking Zechariah mute?
- Infertility is a difficult situation. What would it be like in a culture that considered infertility as a curse?
- Elizabeth was 6 months pregnant when Mary visited. When Mary arrived the unborn John leaped in his mothers womb. What insight does that give about the unborn having a spirit?

How often in the Bible has the Angel sent from Heaven been named? IS there any significance to the name Gabriel?

Great questions. The Bible only mentions a few angels by name. However, the Apocryphal books list a total of seven by name. (Please don’t ask me to list them from memory LOL)
In Hebrew the meaning of the name Gabriel is: Man of God. God’s able-bodied one. When the Angel Gabriel is mentioned in Scripture he is always a messenger of God.
