Subject: The Sons of God in Genesis 6:1-4 |
Bible Note: On an added note, Sodom and Gamorrah are known all throughout scripture to have been destroyed due to their sexual immorality. The term "sodomite", which is derived from name of the city of Sodom, carries the meaning of someone who acted as the people of Sodom acted, ie: sexually immoral. This is a constant meaning throughout the Bible. It is not disputed. On top of that, there is no direct, undisputed passage that says that angels acted sexually immoral. With that, and what I said in my previous post concerning the Greek language, it follows that the cities around sodom and gamorrah acted like Sodom and Gamorrah. Angels aren't a part of this verse. The only relation between verse 6 and 7 is that they are examples of those who have disobeyed and were punished. Verses 6 and 7 share this with verse 5, and the three ultimately tie into the larger context of the Epistle of Jude. Jesusman |
