 Angel of Death II
One angel is “punished” as he ascribed the miraculous phenomena of overturning Sodom to himself, and not to God.
But as Rashi said, the punishment of that angel was that “it didn’t move from that place until it admitted that it had no ability of its own to perform the destruction”.
When the angels said, “we are destroying Sodom”, this means that the force of nature causing the destruction, seemed natural, and not due to God.

Over the centuries, the angel of death evolved from a sometimes unseen supernatural force that decimated cities and armies with fire and brimstone from the sky, to a very personal and one-on-one encounter between a fl-cloaked skeleton carrying a large scythe and hourglass, and an unlucky person who is about to lose their life.

 Aaron's Seizes the Angel of Death
Aaron was now correcting the “opinion” of the people, which made them deserving of death, as if he seized the cause of their death, i.e., the angel.
