Genesis 6:4 There were Nephilim (men of stature, notorious men) on the earth in those days--and also afterward--when the sons of God lived with the daughters of men, and they gave birth to their children. These were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown (great reputation, fame). [Num 13:33] |
Subject: WHO are the "sons of God"? |
Bible Note: In Job 1:6 it says, "Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the Lord, and satan came also among them." Satan was a fellen angel. Also the hebrew word for God here is the word "elohym", same word used in Gen 6:4 for God. The reason, I believe they did this, was to corrupt the true race of Adam so they could stop "the seed of woman" in Gen 3 from crushing satans head, as God said He would. |
