WHO are we talking about here?
Neither God or angels "need " words...but obviously sometimes the 'use' words..in the language of the person they are speaking to.

God can speak any language, for he created them all. and as messengers whatever language needed at that time it is accomplish.

now, if any language is used the message is conveyed. spoke or not.

So...are you talking about Jacob wrestling here? You gave no scripture reference.

I doubt Jacob spoke either Greek or English....so I guess your post was just a joke . ;)

nothing to do with Jacob - see Lk 2:21 - twinc
this is correct, and please notice, he was so name before conceived in the womb. the name was "BEFORE" his conception. so the scripture is true, Isaiah 52:6 "Therefore my people shall know my name: therefore they shall know in that day that I am he that doth speak: behold, it is I". and in that day he spoke, John 8:24 "I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins".
