First, this presumes all accounts are true, so if you can’t get by that, stop here.
The people on record of having seen angels describe them as having “wings” and “eyes”, however as these people were very likely agricultural in nature (farmers, herders, etc.) they may have simply described what they saw with the closest analogies they had. What they actually saw could have been something much different, but so far beyond their experience that they couldn’t describe them any other way.
Hypothesis: angels are actually higher dimensional beings that exist in more than 3 dimensions, and intersect part of their being to our 3 dimensions in order to interact with us. “Wings” and “eyes”, along with “wheels within wheels” could be undulations, harmonics, ripples, echoes, sympathetic frequencies of their actual presence that we interpret as best we can. It’s like when the sphere visits Flatland, we are seeing multidimensional cross sections of them, which give them such an otherworldly appearance.
Animals like drugs; it’s not just humans. I remember watching birds get drunk on our pear tree as a kid. How true our assumptions are that they were stoned when these various concepts formed is another matter. There are a number of theories, but it’s hard to “prove” and usually need to be looked at case by case. Often, there’s no way to really tell.
That’s partly what my novel is about. I’d list it, but I’ve changed my writing style to make it more accessible, and I plan to make a 2nd edition soon that hopefully my relatives can read. English isn’t their first language.
Ok wanna hear my theory on angels?

Their appearance is pretty consistent into the present, IIRC.

So Dune is right, Spice exists, and that’s how we access other dimensions? WILD.
Something something all art is derivative.

We need to get stoned. In a controlled manner. For science!!

I prefer Nope’s version of angel lore.
