A certain MyTwoCents commented: The 120 years was referring to how long humanity had left before the great flood would occur. This was God, as usual, allowing a grace period for people to repent and get right before their destruction. The particular sin was humanity’s wilful invocation of fallen angels to enter mens’ bodies in…

My latest book, available at Amazon and elsewhere–preferably purchased directly from me since it is better to support independent authors that way–features the following chapter titles: 1832: A Biblical And Theological Dictionary: Explanatory Of The History, Manners, And Customs Of The Jews, And Neighboring Nations 1835: Theological, Biblical, And Ecclesiastical Dictionary 1840: History Celtic Language…

Considering Edward Lamar’s article, What are the Nephilim?, Jan, 2023. His self-description is, “My goal is to Spread Gods word!” It was posted to the Medium site which self-identifies as, “Medium is where those ideas take shape, take off, and spark powerful conversations. We’re an open platform..” and, FYI, as it turns out, “The author…

BibleStudy.org posted an answer to the question Who Are the Nephilim? The answer notes, “the word Nephilim…appears once in the book of Genesis and once in the book of Numbers.” It’s noted, “The original Hebrew word” is defined by Strong’s Concordance “as someone who is a feller, meaning a person who is a tyrant or…

Undergoing review is Ben Watkins: Why I Am an Atheist. I had a discussion with Ben—see here—and found that he’s one of those philosopher types who has lost the ability to understand simple concepts. For example, I used the term “accident” and it took him circa half an hour to understand what I mean—even though…

Of all of the Bible’s Nephilim texts—all of two verses, not even texts actually—Num 13:32-33 is the mother of them all since without it, no one would even imagine concluding post-flood Nephilim from the Bible. The common tactic of post-flood Nephilim believers is to pick up one single un-contextual verse, 13:33, run with it and…

Undergoing consideration is Catholic Answers’ Q&A with Tom Nash titled Explaining the “Nephilim” of Genesis. The question was, “Where in Scripture does it talk about demons having sex with women and having offspring?” The reply includes, “I think you’re referring to a passage in Genesis 6” which is quoted as referring to “sons of God,”…

Ellen White—no, not the founder of Seventh Day Adventism—(Ph.D. in Hebrew Bible, University of St. Michael’s College) and formerly the senior editor at the Biblical Archaeology Society wrote the post Who Are the Nephilim? The mysterious beings of Genesis 6 on February 08, 2022. To the question, “Who are the Nephilim?” White replies, “The giant…

Gonzales’s focus is twofold: 1. “the identity of the ‘sons of God’ and the Nephilim as found in the Bible” and 2. “the exact process of the recurrence of the Nephilim as found in Numbers 13:32-33 which is long after the flood.” I will bypass the “‘sons of God’ (Hebrew beney ha′elohim)” issue since we…

I encountered a link to an article by a certain Timothy Yung which is titled: Nephilim, Og’s bed, the Defeat of the giants, and Jesus’ proclamation of victory. Upfront, he notes, “I agree with Pastor John MacArthur’s position that the fallen angelic beings didn’t directly procreate with humans”: I covered MacArthur’s views in my book…
