Bible Question: Who are the sons of God and the daughters of men refering to in this verse? |
Bible Answer: In the OT the "son of God" were fallen angels' Gen 6:2-4. The NT the "sons of God" are those who are in Christ or born again believers in the faith. Jhn 1:12; 1Jhn 3:1 read the hole chapter. The women are considered men or sons of God, just as men are considered the bride of Christ which is the church. Rev 21:9 |
