Who Are The Sons Of God In Genesis Chapter 6? by Steep: 7:35pm On Oct 04, 2022
Genesis 6:2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

Genesis 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

There is debate about the identity of the Sons of God in Genesis 6.

I believe the Sons of God were angels (fallen) but however, they could easily have possessed the bodies of human male to marry and bare children. The children would be purely human, however, since it is known that the presence of demons in humans causes such humans to have enhanced abilities, the genetic make up of the children could have being altered so that their children had enhanced human abilities.

This is just my thought anyway

Having done som research in the bible
I don't think the Sons of God are actually angels.

I will create a new post for it.

This same thought of yours seems to be shared by many who are into the arts of demonology and angelology, mostly of pagan leanings ... any idea how come? undecided

The demonic who was residing in the tombs had super human strength.

Luke 8:29 (For he had commanded the unclean spirit to come out of the man. For oftentimes it had caught him: and he was kept bound with chains and in fetters; and he brake the bands, and was driven of the devil into the wilderness.)

Meaning his body had enhanced strength, he was able to brake metal chains like nothing.

Not mine since I didn't write the books of Enoch and the book called [i]demonologie [/i]as well as the many others that add various interpretations to that written in just a few lines of Genesis 6. undecided

As a matter of fact, the book, demonologie, was written by none other than King James, the same one who translated and compiled what is the King James Bible. undecided
Re: Who Are The Sons Of God In Genesis Chapter 6? by Steep: 8:21pm On Oct 04, 2022
Another possible answer to Gensis 6 is that the nephilim may not actually be the children of the fallen angels.

Genesis 6:4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

This is because the Bible did not actually state they were the offspring but rather the Nephillims were present in those days and beyond.

However it is clear that the Nephillims were humans humans not Hybrid.

Bene ha Elohim = Sons of the God=Angels.
Check the Hebrew meaning of Bene ha Elohim.
Yahweh is always referenced as ha Elohim ( the God in the holy scriptures.
If you check Greek John 1:1, "the God" is there.
@ Deuteronomy 10:17/ Greek John 4:24, the God of gods.
"The God" is not Jesus Christ.)
No need for long grammar and jargon.

Fallen Angels.

Read the book of Enoch.

These fallen angels are also principalities in high places and under the earth.

Many of them now parade themselves as gods e.g Zeus, Hades, Poseidon, Ra, Medussa, Hermes, Isis, Osiris, Amadioha, Queen of Heaven (Disguising as Mary) etc.

Fallen angels are demons.
The book of Enoch was not written by Enoch but by Jewish mystics.

undecided

A chain is a serial assembly of connected pieces, called links, typically made of metal, with an overall character similar to that of a rope in that it is flexible and curved in compression but linear, rigid, and load-bearing in tension.
