"ἄγγελος" meaning in Ancient Greek

See ἄγγελος in All languages combined, or Wiktionary

Noun

IPA: /áŋ.ɡe.los/, /ˈaɲ.ɟe.los/, /ˈaɲ.ɟe.los/, /áŋ.ɡe.los/ (note: 5ᵗʰ BCE Attic), /ˈaŋ.ɡe.los/ (note: 1ˢᵗ CE Egyptian), /ˈaɲ.ɟe.los/ (note: 4ᵗʰ CE Koine), /ˈaɲ.ɟe.los/ (note: 10ᵗʰ CE Byzantine), /ˈaɲ.ɟe.los/ (note: 15ᵗʰ CE Constantinopolitan)
Etymology: Cognate with Mycenaean Greek 𐀀𐀐𐀫 (a-ke-ro), but origin uncertain. Probably a loanword, and probably related to ἄγγαρος (ángaros, “Persian mounted courier”) (whence Latin angarius), which is probably from an Asian language. Klein suggests Semitic, cf. 𐡀𐡍‬𐡂𐡓𐡕‬𐡀 (’engirtā, “missive, letter; contract”) and ܐܓܪܬܐ (ˀeggarṯā, “letter, document”) (from Akkadian 𒂊𒄈𒌓 (egertu, “inscribed tablet; contract”)). Compare also Sanskrit अजिर (ajira, “agile, swift”), Sanskrit अञ्जि (añji, “commander, sender”) and Sanskrit अञ्जस् (añjas, “speed, velocity”). The religious sense is a semantic loan from Biblical Hebrew מַלְאָךְ (malʾāḵ).

  "etymology_text": "Cognate with Mycenaean Greek 𐀀𐀐𐀫 (a-ke-ro), but origin uncertain. Probably a loanword, and probably related to ἄγγαρος (ángaros, “Persian mounted courier”) (whence Latin angarius), which is probably from an Asian language. Klein suggests Semitic, cf. 𐡀𐡍‬𐡂𐡓𐡕‬𐡀 (’engirtā, “missive, letter; contract”) and ܐܓܪܬܐ (ˀeggarṯā, “letter, document”) (from Akkadian 𒂊𒄈𒌓 (egertu, “inscribed tablet; contract”)). Compare also Sanskrit अजिर (ajira, “agile, swift”), Sanskrit अञ्जि (añji, “commander, sender”) and Sanskrit अञ्जस् (añjas, “speed, velocity”).\nThe religious sense is a semantic loan from Biblical Hebrew מַלְאָךְ (malʾāḵ).",
