Well this is awkward. The Bible also says,
"God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth with a message for Mary, who was promised in marriage to Joseph. The angel told Mary that she would have a son, whom she was to name Jesus. The angel said, โHe will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High God.โ
Mary asked how this could be as she was a virgin. The angel answered, โThe Holy Spirit will come on you, and Godโs power will rest on you.โ He also told Mary that her elderly relative Elizabeth was six months pregnant, for there is nothing that God cannot do. Mary replied, โI am the Lordโs servantโ."

This is actually saying Gadriel/Gadreel. It does sound very close to Gabriel.
I listened again and heard GADriel, mahalos for calling that out.

I will keep the comment there in case others heard it the same the first time.
And, I have seen it enough times that some people think ALL angels were fallen and bad. I do think the book of Enoch contributes to that thinking. This is a good reminder that the Bible includes Higher Angels in service to God
I ask all to at least contemplate there were good and pure higher beings in service to God.๐๐
If its all fallen angels and demons out there, what is Heaven occupied with?
I had to rewind it to hear the name correctly. I too heard Gabriel at first. I believe in good angels. I do think the book of Enoch was left out for nefarious purposes. You can see peoples responses and know there will be people who will be upset when the truth comes out.
I am on the fence with the book of Enoch only because people who are deeply into say all angels are fallen and all star people are demons.
I did enjoy reading through the Dead Sea scrolls and feel the Gospel of Thomas was left out to keep us more in the dark about the living Light of Christ within.
What is the Gospel of Thomas and why is it not in the Bible?
The Bible contains sixty-six books in all of its pages, all of them meant to show who God is. There's a reason why the Gospel of Thomas didn't make the final cut.
