angels
Winged divine beings
Angels are spiritual beings that serve as messengers or servants of God in Jewish, Christian, and Islamic traditions.
They appear in scripture as intermediaries between heaven and earth.
By extension, an angel is any person of exceptional kindness or goodness: She's been an angel through all this.
To be on the side of the angels is to support what is right.
In theater and finance, an angel is an early investor who backs a risky venture. (Capitalized Angels refers to sports teams, notably the Los Angeles Angels baseball team.)
