1 | The Sons of God in Genesis 6:1-4 | Genesis | Jesusman | 32459 | ||
Hello, Hank covered what I wanted to say about Job very well. So, I'll talk about the matters of "oiketerion". Actually, "oiketerion" is connected to "oikos" which means "house, habitation, dwelling", and with "oiketeia" which refers to servants of a household. In both passages, the connotation is that the people in reference are close servants in God's habitation. In 2 Cor. 5:2, Paul is saying that as God's children, we long to be united with the house inwhich we belong to, that is, Heaven. In Jude 6, he is saying that the angels left the house inwhich they were a part of, and servants in, ie: Heaven. Overall, I must disagree about Genesis 6 referring to angels marrying humans. The evidence keeps pointing me to another meaning. Jesusman |

Jesusman, After reading this post..I have to conclude that what I read in the Vines is totally whacked. That is, if what Jude is saying is redundant. He says these angels left their habitation heaven...yes...and also their estate...heaven again.?? But even though Ive aske a couple of times if my reasoning from the Vines is unfounded...you have yet to reply. Plus, I have posted a few others recently and am still awaiting your wonderful views to glean from. If you havent read my profile...please do so. I am always on the look out for learning. *shalom* D |
