This passage refers to the “sons of God.” Who are they?
These are, no doubt, angels. Several other passages in the Bible refer to the sons of God as angels. Job 38:7 states, “When the morning stars sang together and all the sons of God shouted for joy?” (cf. Ps. 29:1; 89:6) This also fits with the context, where Satan (a fallen angel) appears before God.
James is an elder at Dwell Community Church, where he teaches classes in theology, apologetics, and weekly Bible studies.
