As far as I know, the biblical description of angels are in line with the Torah and in extention with the Quran. The babies with angel wings is in comparison a very new concept. Depicted long after the Bible was written.

But you seem deeply invested in this religion, which is fine by me, but I am not. I see the similarities and just presume that whoever wrote the book read the others. I'm not saying I am right or wrong, or that you are. All I'm saying that the similarities are very much possible and, in my opinion, very probable in a non-religious sense.

Even religions before monotheism are very much alike,and probably stem from the same root. I don't see anyone pushing for godly intervention or prophecies for that. But in all probability, the coincidence in that are probably similar to the coincidence in the Islam.
