What is the origin of belief in “Angels”?

In ancient times most people believed that there were many gods and goddesses, usually smaller gods and goddesses surrounding the one principal God. When God, in Old Testament times, revealed that there is only ONE God, it meant that the smaller gods and goddesses were reduced to being just ‘spiritual powers’, creatures under God’s command. This is the origin of belief in angels.
