The title "God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob" (or "God of our fathers") is non-specific, like Elohim, Almighty, Lord, and Yahweh, and can refer to the Father, the Son, or both. Acts 3:13 and Acts 7:30-32 distinguish the God of the fathers from His Servant Jesus or from the Angel, but Christ often speaks of Himself in the third person, so two titles do not require two God beings. Stephen says the Angel spoke to Moses on Sinai and to the fathers (Acts 7:38), and Judges 2:1 says the Angel promised the land and made the covenant, though other accounts credit Yahweh with the same acts. The Angel is the divine Messenger of the covenant (Malachi 3:1), the pre-incarnate Christ. In Genesis 22, Abraham obeyed the Angel as his God. In Genesis 31, the Angel calls Himself the God of Bethel, who is the LORD God of Abraham and Isaac. In Genesis 48, Jacob equates God, the One before whom his fathers walked, with the Angel who redeemed him. In Exodus 3, the Angel in the bush is the same as the LORD God of the fathers who "appeared." Since Scripture insists that no one has seen the Father except the Son (John 1:18; 6:46; 1 Timothy 6:16), the One the fathers saw and dealt with was Christ. In the broadest sense both Father and Son are God of the fathers, but the One who interacted with them was the Word who later became flesh, the only way to the Father.
