Nephilim

Post by Mystical »

Were the Nephilim really demon-humans? Or, as I've also read: the "daughters of men" were the ungodly descendants of Cain, and the "sons of God" were the godly descendants of Seth.
As kids we were all told in kindergarten that when a frog becomes a prince, that is a fairy tale. But when I was in high school and college, they told us that when a frog becomes a prince, that is science! --Mark Cahill (One Heartbeat Away)

yes exactly, however I think they were a product of fallen angels and mankind. Also i think some giants in numbers are referred to as nephalim in a town if you are interested.

That is one way to look at it.

Angels don't have sex organs. How would they breed?
It would be a blessing if they missed the cairns and got lost on the way back. Or if
the Thing on the ice got them tonight.

I could only turn and stare in horror at the chief surgeon.
Death by starvation is a terrible thing, Goodsir, continued Stanley.
And with that we went below to the flame-flickering Darkness of the lower deck
and to a cold almost the equal of the Dante-esque Ninth Circle Arctic Night
without.

Why do you say that? Because they don't marry in heaven?

Here's a good study into this:
