Although we often hear that when Genesis 1:26–27 says, “Let us make humans in our image,” the “us” refers to the Trinity, it’s likely that the “us” is the heavenly council. They are divine beings that God created like a supernatural family before he created his human family. You see these sons of God mentioned in Psalm 82, and they comprise what we see called “the heavenly host” or “heavenly council” in Scripture.
