Some other message for the messenger of the gods (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

hermes

'messenger of the gods' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'some other message for' is the wordplay.
'some' indicates a hidden word (some of the parts of the word are used).
'HERMES' is hidden in the letters of 'other message for'.

'the' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for hermes that I've seen before include "Greek messenger of the gods, like Roman Mercury" , "Messenger and herald of the gods" , "Greek god of commerce and theft" , "Greek messenger god" , "Winged messenger" .)
