Created Messenger

The verse does not explicitly state that the angel is a "created" being, only that it was "sent" by the Lord. While the common understanding of angels is that they are created, the text itself doesn't provide this detail, leaving open the theoretical possibility of other interpretations for the nature of the "angel" if one were to argue from a highly speculative theological position.
