Is this an angel according to the Bible?

Maybe Revelations?

The Bible really doesn't describe a lot of things physically. I know for a fact that Dante describes angels, cherubim, seraphim, and archangels in Paradisio.

The Hierarchy of Angels is mentioned in the bible occasionally, but most of the details come from older Hebrew stuff

most literal angels described in Christianity resemble higher-dimensional beings intersecting with out reality

Here's your Angel bro

ezekiel, isaiah, the zohar, and the mishneh torah all cover angels/the angelic hierarchy—also recommend scholem’s kabbalah

Who, if I cried out, would hear me among the angels' hierarchies?
and even if one of them pressed me suddenly against his heart:
I would be consumed in that overwhelming existence.
For beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror, which we are still just able to endure,
and we are so awed because it serenely disdains to annihilate us.
Every angel is terrifying.
And so I hold myself back and swallow the call-note of my dark sobbing.
Ah, whom can we ever turn to in our need?
Not angels, not humans, and already the knowing animals are aware
that we are not really at home in our interpreted world.
Perhaps there remains for us some tree on a hillside, which every day we can take into our vision;
there remains for us yesterday's street and the loyalty of a habit so much at ease
when it stayed with us that it moved in and never left.
Oh and night: there is night, when a wind full of infinite space gnaws at our faces.
Whom would it not remain for--that longed-after, mildly disillusioning presence,
which the solitary heart so painfully meets.
Is it any less difficult for lovers?
But they keep on using each other to hide their own fate.
Don't you know yet?
Fling the emptiness out of your arms into the spaces we breathe;
perhaps the birds will feel the expanded air with more passionate flying.

Leliel is so much better. Like a little EoE wrapped in a cocoon of higher mathematics.

Angels do not have physical form so they can appear whatever way they want

They don't look any particular way, that's just how they looked to Ezekiel
