Who is the angel of the Lord in Exodus 3:2?

Exodus 3:2
The Burning Bush
2 "And the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush. He looked, and behold, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed."  

I've heard this said:  
"While Moses is out watching the family's flock, near a place they call the Mountain of God, guess who appears to him? The angel of the capital L, capital O, capital R, capital D. This is a theophony, a divine visitation. Another ancient translation refers to this being who has appeared as the Word, which is one of the names used to describe Jesus in the New Testament. So we have a lot of reason to believe this is God the Son. Not only that, but the angel appears to him in a fire, which is another common way we've talked about God. appearing. And the fire is on a bush, so imagine an angel who looks like a human male, on fire, in a bush, talking. Meanwhile, nothing is actually being burned even though it's all on fire."

However, I can't find the ancient translation saying this.
