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: What is a Nephilum? |
Bible Note: The only verses that I can bring to mind which appear to support my view, are found at 2nd Peter Ch 2 vs 4-5. It would appear that the Jews who produced the Septuagint, when looking for a suitable Greek word to represent what they understood the Nephilim to be,chose Titan. If you Doc can quote a Scripture to indicate that my conclusion is incorrect, then please do so, or otherwise give me your considered opinion as to who you think the Nephilim were?. Respectfully yours. Edwin Brain. |
