Archangel who was God's messenger to humans (7)

I believe the answer is:

gabriel

(Other definitions for gabriel that I've seen before include "Boy" , "musician" , "The angel with a trumpet" , "Dante - Rossetti, nineteenth century English poet/painter" , "Chief guard of Paradise" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
