Throughout the Old and New Testament both you find the mention of angels. Never are men to worship angels for there is only One worthy of worship. Most times they take on the form of men when dealing with man as seen here. Other times they aid the redeemed of Christ. It states that their clothing was shining. It seems that in every instance that men came into the presence of an angel it struck fear in their hearts as we see in the next verse.
