AMPLIFIED 2015 | 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: when te sons of God came |
Bible Note: Greetings BumperCar! Here is my Answer to the Genesis 6:4 question, and I will say no more.. The "sons of God" in Genesis 6:4 are the men who are the descendants of Seth (Genesis 4:25-26), who "began to call upon the name of the LORD." The "sons of God" in Genesis 6:4 cannot be angels since angels are not given in marriage and are spirits (Mark 12:25; Hebrews 1:14). You have asked for a "straight" answer, and I have truly given you my Answer on the subject of Genesis 6:4. But I will say no more than this on this subject, regardless of who or how many posts are made in response to this one. Blessings to you, Makarios |
