The malach answers, "why do you ask?"

There is a drasha that says that "Why do you ask my name" is actually the answer. Meaning, my name is not important. It is ever-changing, the yetzer hara changes forms in every generation. (I think its the sichos Mussar but I could be wrong.)

Because Elisha "hugged" him when he was reviving him.
Also, before the child was born, he said, "in a year from now, you will be 'hugging' a child." (chovekes-embracing) (or something along those lines?).

Yes I remember that! The yetzer hara says don't look into me too closely, don't stop to think or question or ask my name. Not pshat though

Where in davening do you have the words in reverse order of the aleph beis followed by words starting with the ender letters? (thank you Rabbi Reisman for pointing this out!)

Shabbat mussaf amida is with the words in reverse order of alef beis - "tikanta shabbat ratzita korbenoteha..."
But I don't know about words starting with end letters - what do you mean by that?

You got it!
The ender letters (sofit in Hebrew) are kof/chof, mem, nun, peh, tzadee
Look at the words following the "aleph" word in the sequence you found in musaf

I can't believe I didn't see this thread till now! I just read through 50-some pages, and here are a couple that weren't asked yet:
What is the shortest word in the Torah?
Where in the Torah do you have 5 words in a row, all starting with an aleph?

At bash
The first night of Pesach is the same as Tisha b'av (aleph-taf) , 2nd night the same as Shavuos (beis shin) , 3rd is rosh Hashana (gimmel, reish), etc.
