Angels in the Bible aren't what we think (video)

Avian, lower sky-devaclassic angel type from the World of the Thirty-Three (Epic Reads).

Why Bible accurate angels are so creepy
(Hochelaga, 7/31/20) Ever wonder why biblically-accurate angels look so creepy? Instead of beautiful, angelic humanoids, the Bible depicts bizarre animal-human hybrids (chimeras), fiery winged beasts, and wheels made of eyes -- as if the Sumerian characters the Bible bases them on are real. It is uncertain, but some believe that angels are descendants of mythical beasts across the ancient Near East.
Biblical texts:
MESSENGERS -Exodus 11:4–5 -2 Samuel 24:16–17 2 -Kings 19:35
CHERUBIM -Genesis 3:24 -Exodus 25:18–22, -Psalm 99:1 -Ezekiel 1:1-14 -Ezekiel 10
SERAPHIM -Isaiah 6:1-8
OPHANIM -Ezekiel 1:15-21
