  • The Bible contains many mysteries and strange stories. One of the most intriguing details in the early chapters of Genesis concerns a race of giants referred to only as the nephilim. Who were these mysterious beings? What were they? Are there any other points of reference in Scripture that help us explain this disturbing chapter of human history? What might these stories tell us about angels and demons? Join us for a fascinating exploration of the mystery of biblical giants!

    You stated that from The Book of Job you determined that the sons of God were angels The Book of Job also says there's other worlds so therefore there may be inhabitants on this other worlds that could have one of the sons representing the sons of that world and one of Adam's descendants could have been the representing Earth it feels like you just added that out of nowhere

    Who are the sons of God in Romans 8:19?
    In verse 19, Paul continues the line of thought about humans being restored to reign over a righteous and harmonious earth: For the anxious longing of the creation waits eagerly for the revealing of the sons of God. This refers to those who receive the reward of being adopted as a son.
    2 Corinthians 6:18 (NIV)
    And, “I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.” In this child of God scripture verse, God renews His promise to us that He will always see us as His children. As His children, we are given the gifts of His limitless mercy, grace and love.
    NO SUCH ANGELS BEING SONS OF GOD, SORRY! ANGELS CAN NOT HAVE INTIMATE RELATIONS WITH HUMANS, THEY ARE FROM A DIFFERENT DIMENSION AND BODY. NEPHILIM IS A CITY AND THEY ARE DESCENDANTS OF CAIN. The Nephilim are mentioned just before the Flood account in Genesis 6:4, which states: The Nephilim were on the earth in those days-and also afterward-when the sons of God went in to the daughters of humans, who bore children to them. These were the heroes that were of old, warriors of renown. THEY WERE OF OLD, WARRIORS OF RENOWN. Angels don't get old, not warriors or renown. WE ARE THE SONS OF GOD, BEING ADOPTED MAKING IT POSSIBLE WHEN JESUS TOOK OUR FLESH.
    NEVER SAYS THEY ARE FALLEN ANGELS!!! DO NOT INTERPET THE BIBLE TO MAKE IT WORK! GIANTS ARE STILL BEING BORN, JUST AS LITTLE PEOPLE!

      Friend, it’s myopic to ask, “Who are the sons of God in Romans 8:19?” since just because a term can sometimes refer to something doesn’t mean that it can never refer to anything else: no language functions that way. So, as VeriMyth rightly noted, “different things in different historical and cultural contexts.” So that, for example, the Gen 6 affair is more correlatable to Job 38:7 which shows us that “sons of God” can refer to non-human beings (which the LXX has as “Angeloi”: plural of “Angelos”).
      Jude and 2 Peter 2 combined refer to a sin of Angels, place that sin to pre-flood days and correlate it to sexual sin which occurred after the Angels, “left their first estate,” after which they were incarcerated, and there’s only a one-time fall/sin of Angels in the Bible.
      The original, traditional, and majority view among the earliest Jewish and Christians commentators, starting in BC days, was the “Angel view” as I proved in my book, “On the Genesis 6 Affair’s Sons of God: Angels or Not? A Survey of Early Jewish and Christian Commentaries Including Notes on Giants and the Nephilim.”
      Now, you merely assert, “ANGELS CAN NOT HAVE INTIMATE RELATIONS WITH HUMANS” based on the merely asserted premise, “THEY ARE FROM A DIFFERENT DIMENSION AND BODY” yet, Angels are always described as looking like human males, performing physical actions, and without indication that such isn’t their ontology. We were created “a little lower” (Psa 8:5) than them, and we can reproduce with them so, by definition, we’re of the same basic “kind.” See my book, “What Does the Bible Say About Angels? A Styled Angelology.”
      I’ve familiarized myself with over two millennia worth of relevant data, that I used to write my dozen or so Nephilology books but have never run across someone merely assert, “NEPHILIM IS A CITY.
      As for, “AND THEY ARE DESCENDANTS OF CAIN” see what our point was? You just used the term “NEPHILIM” to refer to two very different things: a city and Cainites.
      Now, what makes you merely assert that “NEPHILIM…ARE DESCENDANTS OF CAIN”?
      Indeed, “Angels don't get old” but that’s a non sequitur since the very verse that you quoted tells us, “Nephilim were on the earth in those days-and also afterward-when the sons of God went in to the daughters of humans, who bore children to them” and the children of the sons of God/Angels were “heroes that were of old, warriors of renown.”
      Also, the verse was not identifying them as such but of course we have depictions of Angels as, “warriors” who hold weapons (at least symbolic of God’s word) and vanquish armies, etc. and they have been of such “renown” that one of them had to tell John, for example, “I am a fellow servant with you and with your brothers.”
      You claim, “NEVER SAYS THEY ARE FALLEN ANGELS!!!” but again, read Jude and 2 Peter 2.
      I’m unsure why you jumped from the specific ancient Hebrew word “NEPHILIM” to the vague, generic, subjective, multi-usage and modern English word “GIANTS.”

      I don't believe that the sons of God were Angels. Angels were made only one time and were not male or female. They didn't have sex organs to make babies. If they were human with sex organs, they would not make the Nephilim. Their DNA is of the same species and would not make a Nephilim. This would just be another human. If you look into the old writings of the Sumarians, You would find beings that came down from the Heavens to earth and mated with earth women and made babies. Having a totally different DNA makes them not compatable to humans. This could make a Nephilim.

      You merely asserted, "Angels...were not male or female.

Why would they only be missing THE key features of the male anatomy? See my book, “What Does the Bible Say About Angels? A Styled Angelology.”
      "Species" isn't biblical taxonomy. We were created “a little lower” (Psa 8:5) than Angels, and we can reproduce with them so, by definition, we’re of the same basic “kind.”
