Who was the “Angel of the Lord” mentioned so often in Scriptures?

Angels
The word “angel” simply means a “messenger of God” for a messenger from God and in both the Old Testament and the New Testament, angels are always messengers of God or His representatives, depending upon the situation.

Does the Bible say we should pray to the dead? Is it okay or is it sin?

Prayer is essentially talking to God, but in a deeply reverential and respectful manner. It’s like a one on one conversation where we lay our prayer requests before God and trust Him to do whatsoever He wills.

What is the 9th Commandment? Is it still important today?

The Ten Commandments
When Moses came down off the mountain with the Ten Commandments, the Israelites had already broken most of them. He was angry with them and threw them down to the ground, smashing them in the process, just like they had broken them, but in truth, God’s Ten Commandments cannot be destroyed by breaking them but those who do can be destroyed by God.
