A Mal'akh (Ancient Enheduanni; plural Mal'akhim) is a messenger of God, an angelic envoy, an Angel.

Mal'akhim fly through the air, they become invisible, sacrifices touched by them are consumed by fire, they disappear in sacrificial fire and they appear in the flames of the thornbush. They are pure and bright as heaven, consequently they are formed of fire and are encompassed by light.
