The KJV calls angels in Job 2:1 "sons of God" as well.

I'm not sure what you're trying to say. The Bible clearly distinguishes between angels and humans. The Bible also refers to "children of God" multiple multiple times as being humans. I don't see how this affects my assertion that some humans are "children of God" and some humans are not.

Actually, the Septuagint uses the word "aggeloi" (angels), but the (Pharisaical) Hebrew text says "sons of God."

Whichever is 'correct,' the fact remains that Satan was one of them and therefore not some fallen, rebellious creature of God in Judaic mindset.
