Bible Question: Genesis 6:2,3 speaks of "the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair ;and they took them wives of all which they chose." Who were these sons of God. And also verse four I don't understand at all. Thanks if anyone can help me understand this better. I've heard rumor of strange things here. |
Bible Answer: The reference for Genesis 6:2,3 at 2Peter 2:4 where it says: Certainly God did not refrain from punishing the angels who sinned... This is the most clear definition of who were being spoken of in Genesis chapter 6. Going by the context of chapter 6 the Nephilim were the sons of the angels who disobeyed. |
