Why did angels take women as their wives?
In this explanation, wicked men referred to as sons of the gods (either pagan worshippers or perhaps men purported to be demigods, as ancient rulers often claimed of themselves) forcibly “took” innocent women as wives—an example perhaps of the evil conduct of the day. In any event, human beings were clearly the problem here—not angels.
What does the Bible say about angels living in your hair?
Simple answer, at those times people believed that Angels lived in you hair especially on your head!!! – EnochJul 26 ’16 at 12:40 I notice you quote the ESV and that it has “wife” instead of “woman”. It should be noted that the same word could have been translated “woman”.
Why did the Angels wear the head covering?
The head covering was a means of maintaining order and reducing potential for lust/sexual angst within the male population (akin to forbidding micro mini skirts in church now). The “bad” angels were angels who fell because they had sex with the beautiful daughters of men.
What does the Bible say about hair for women?
That is, the head-covering (hair) for women is a timeless principle in all ages and in all places, since angels have co-existed with man since man was created. In fact, angels preexisted man. The Hebrew Bible (Job 38:7) indicates that the “sons of God” rejoiced at the creation of the world.

Why do Angels sometimes take a physical form?
The angels tell me they sometimes take this form because angels know this form is familiar to humans, so it’s an easy way for angels to identify themselves without a shadow of a doubt. Likewise this physical form is close to what a human looks like, but different enough that it registers as an angel to us.
