A discussion ensued due to the video NATIVE AMERICAN STORIES ΟF ΤHE RED ΗΑΙRED GΙΑNTS ΟF EARLY ΑΜERΙCΑ, ORIGINS & WΑRS (ABOUT & MORE).

The other part no one ever talks about is why the natives would put up a hand when greeting someone. They held up their hand to prove they had 5 fingers and not 6 like the nephilem. So before you got close you had to prove that by putting up one hand. We think they are saying Hi. But it has a much deeper meaning.

That’s definitely a possibility. The main point of raising your hand up to say hello is to show you are not armed with a weapon.
I, Ken Ammi, asked
What makes you think Nephilim had six digits?
PURSUIT HEMI 5.7 AWD
from Torah and Bible. King Og was described as having Six fingers per hand and same with,6 toes
Ken Ammi
Two issues:
1. Og was a Repha, not a Nephil.
2. Og was never described as having Six fingers per hand and same with,6 toes.

Wow! New to subject.

Maybe that’s where the salute comes from as well. Reveal your face under your armor, and show how many fingers you have if held hand a certain way (not like US military now).
Ken Ammi @Huskyfan1984
That’s a bit generic, wouldn’t you agree? What about the Bible? How so in the Bible? Whereabouts in the Bible? Keep in mind that my question was “What makes you think NEPHILIM had six digits?”
Ken Ammi @yjbaxtere
“that’s where” where?
Sandra Johnson @PURSUIT HEMI 5.7 AWD
Wrong, Scripture says King Og had a 13′ bed. He was taller than the average. Maybe he was 12′ tall.
Ryan Drabing @Ken Ammi
i be live Enoch books speak of them having six fingers and toes.
Jay Gee @Ken Ammi
chronicles kings
Anything about king David really if you want to know about giants
And kjv
Even though it’s constantly changing
It’s still the best
It’s scripture for reproof correction and sound doctrine
It is not the Word of God that is Jesus’s title
He is the unchanging word
People began worshipping the Bible instead of Him so he allowed to to be changed
And it’s changing constantly it’s truly paranormal

Like a little child rewording someone’s answer into the same question over and over with out any rebuttal or facts of your own.

Well friend, I style myself an Systematic Biblical Paranormologist and have written some nine books about Nephilology so I can tell you that if you don’t tell me what you mean by the vague, subjective, generic, and multi-usage English word “giants” I won’t understand you.
If you mean “Nephilim” the utterly nothing whatsoever about king David has anything at all to do with them.
If you mean “Rephaim” and, sure, David dealt with them.
For example, he dealt with Goliath who, most reliably, was just shy of 7 ft.
Thus, if you mean subjectively unusual height then we’re told that Anakim were subjectively “tall” compared to Israelites, males of which averaged 5.0-5.3 ft. in those days.
Also, the reason that the word “giants” ended up in the KJV is that it’s just rendering (not even translating) the Greek LXX’s “gigantes” which was just rendering (not even translating) “Nephilim” and/but also “Rephaim” and/but also “gibborim” and gigantes just means “earth-born” so that none of those words in any language even imply anything about height at all.
That brought the discussion to and end as no more replies were forthcoming.
