You can search for angels in the Hebrew Bible at: http://bible.ort.org/books/searchd2.asp.

I did not explore at this time but have left for future exploration the topic "Angels in the Talmud" An easy way of searching for that topic is at Mordechai Torczyner's WebShas - Index to the Talmud: Search Engine: http://www.aishdas.org/webshas/search.htm.

The Midrash (legends) are also full of angels. The primary documentation was The Legends of the Jews by Louis Ginzberg. You can find it on the web at: http://philologos.org/__eb-lotj/
