In the Hebrew [[Bible]], Gabriel appears to the prophet Daniel to explain his visions (Daniel 8:15–26, 9:21–27). These are the first instances of a named angel in the Bible. Gabriel's main function in Daniel is that of revealer, responsible for interpreting Daniel's visions, a role he continues to have in later traditions.
