I thought it was the archangel Michael who would fullfill God's wishes in these matters?
Maybe it was Michael in Christianity.
In Jewish lore, Michael is seen as the advocate of humanity, presenting their prayers to G-d. Michael was responsible for telling Sarah she would give birth to Isaac, stopping Abraham from sacrificing Isaac, and accompanying the souls of the righteous to heaven when they die. A few scholars say that Michael was also the angel that wrestled with Jacob before his encounter with Esau.
As for the smiting of the firstborn in Egypt, that was G-d directly.
