Good angels are more noble and holy than man (Daniel 9:21-23, 10:10-14). Good angels can take on the appearance of men when the occasion demands.

( Genesis 28:10-12 ) Jacob probably concluded from that dream what we too can conclude —that Jehovah God dispatches the angels to the earth on missions, to act in behalf of loyal humans who are in need of his ...
The book of Revelation indicates that angels would be diligently helping people earth wide to learn about Jehovah God and his purpose for mankind.
