The Angel is portrayed as an athletic frat boy type who is proudly guarding a fruit tree — a reference to the Genesis story (Gen 3:24). He’s wearing a shirt that says, “Ball for the Lord” which could mean “play on the Lord’s team”, or “God will make you cry”. Both interpretations fit equally well.
Reference in Mormonism:
After Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit, God decided to guard the other important fruit tree, the “Tree of Life”. Who best to guard it? An angel with a kick-ass flaming sword, that’s who! (Gen 3:24, Moses 4:31)
Joseph Smith didn’t want to practice polygamy, but an angel with a flaming sword made him do it. (Life of Heber C. Kimball, p.321-325)
