Not just having a human nature, but bridging the gap between mankind and 
God; the Outsider's extension into the mortal realm. "God and sinners 
reconciled."

I'm not sure what the point of the story about the angel and the eagle, 
etc. really is intended to be. Angel is the English word that takes the 
place of the Greek angelos, "messenger", and someone bearing a message 
whose provenance is "I just guessed", is no messenger at all.
