1 | Angels or the Cainites with Sethites? | Gen 6:2 | Loosed | 198371 | ||
Are the Sons of God angels or a chosen class of people who joined in marriage with a people God did not approve? | ||||||
2 | Angels or the Cainites with Sethites? | Gen 6:2 | Jim Estes | 198375 | ||
Hi Loosed, In verse 6:2 we see that the “Sons of God” were taking the daughters of men as wives. The “Sons of God” were righteous men who called upon the name of the Lord (Gen 4:26) or those who are led by the Spirit of God (Romans 8:14). These marriages resulted in the corruption of the entire human race (Gen 6:12). The exception was Noah, who found grace in the eyes of the Lord (Gen 6:5-8). Jim |

3 | further question on "Sons of God" | Gen 6:2 | bandit | 198376 | ||
Jim, A question. I know that many interpret the "Sons of God" in Genesis 6:2 as the godly line of Seth with the daughters of man being from Cain's line. This was the opinion of Augustine and the Reformers as well. But can you provide any insight on how that would match with the "Sons of God" in Job 38:7 being angels? I think 2 Peter 2:4 is also taken as a reference to the incident in Genesis 6:2. I've heard the major objection to the "Sons of God" being angels is Christ's comment in Matthew 22 that angels do not procreate. But Jude 1:6-7 speaks of angels leaving their first estate and going after strange flesh and fornication. I'm not trying to cause confusion but wanted to reconcile what I'm reading in some of my studies with the different viewpoints. Any insight would be appreciated. Thanks! |
