Bible Probe on the Return of Nephilim Giants

Under review is the Bible Probe site’s article Were the Nephilim sons of God? Fallen Angels? Giants of Genesis 6:4?

The segments, which you can find here, are as follows:

Sons of God Angels and Nephilim and Anakim as Post-Flood Nephilim
Goliath as Nephilim and Nephilim Etymology The Days of Noah

Animal Genetic Experiments and Sons of God Fallen Angels as Aliens

Return of Nephilim Giants

RETURN OF NEPHILIM GIANTS
At this point, Bible Probe goes in various directions in attempting to connect dots.

They play a guessing game in that after the Genesis 6 affair “there must have been another irruption” when “it was made known that the Seed of the woman was to come through ABRAHAM” (aka that which is being referred to as “irruption” is aka by others as “incursions”).

We are now taken back to the issue of those days and also after that as now “after that” is being specified as being “after the days of Noah, more than 500 years after the first irruption” and then anytime thereafter when seed or lineage is mentioned such as “two more attempts…before the birth of Isaac, as told in both Genesis 12:10-20 and in Genesis 20:1-18” which is great as we have specific data points. Well, there is a reason that there is a citation but no quotations, because these text state nothing of sons of God/fallen Angels/Watchers/demons mating with women.

The Genesis 12 text tells of “a famine in the land: and Abram went down into Egypt” he is afraid that the Egyptians will murder him so as to take Sarai, etc. The Genesis 20 text is about when “Abraham journeyed from thence toward the south country, and dwelled between Kadesh and Shur, and sojourned in Gerar” and again he is afraid to be murdered for the same reason. What this has any contextual thing to do with the article, is actually explained much later on the in the article which states, “Abraham’s wife Sarai was captured by Pharaoh…Abraham’s wife Sarai was captured (taken) by Abimelech…”
Firstly, “captured” is not the flavor of the texts which have Pharaoh and Abimelech taking Sarai into their household due to being led to think that she was not married, was available, etc. Secondly, the only way for Bible Probe to claim that this has anything to do with son of God would be to make Pharaoh and Abimelech be sons of God or Nephilim or some such thing which we have no reason to think and Bible Probe never even attempts to demonstrate.

We are then told of the finding of “tombs containing the remains of giants” late in the 1950’s AD in Turkey, “Joe Taylor, Director of Mt. Blanco Fossil Museum, was commissioned to sculpt the human femur. This Antediluvian giant stood some 14-16 ft tall.” This is more generic than it is made out to be as Taylor was only commissioned to sculpt the, allegedly, human femur only by extension. Taylor affirms, “I sculpted a femur 47-1/2 (120 cm) based on a report in a newsletter” which he does not name, cite, quote or date. Thus, the sculpture is based on a claim in a newsletter from someone, somewhere at some time.

We are then told that “the bed of Og, king of Bashan, was 9 cubits by 4 cubits (approximately 14 ft long by 6 ft wide [more like 13.5 ft. x 6.0 ft.])” (Deuteronomy 3) which is exactly right, that was the size of his bed and we are told nothing about his own height. Yet, even if he was circa 9 ft. tall that means just that: he was tall and there is no reason to think that tall means hybrid.

There is a subsection of the article titled, “Other human Fossil finds” which lists various supposed “giant” human skeleton finds and they are the same un-researched, unverified, mistaken, based on little to no evidence claims made by way too many people. For a shortcut to understand this issue, see Grading the giant human skeleton chart.

We are told that “an ancient text of the Jews” has Rabbi Johanan ben Zakkai taking emperor Hadrian “into a cave and showed him the bodies of Amorites who were buried there. One of them measured eighteen cubits [approximately 30 feet] in height.” If this was written today it would likely say that Rabbi Zakkai was an early cave spelunking dinosaur/mammoth skeleton finder. In any case, this was from a Midrash which is not a history book but a book of homilies which is titled Tanhuma and which states things such as that “The Torah is full of holy fire; it was written with a black fire upon a white fire.”

In short, biblically the Nephilim all died pre-flood and are never to return and also there were no more attempts by sons of God Angels to do it all again.

The article end by reviewing that which various apocryphal texts add on this or that point.
