Gen 6...who are the sons of God?

I was told ignorance is bliss. But, I remain ignorant as to how it feels.


LOl Did you forget to study?

Outer Limits. No land of the Giants. Molesting, sexually abusing, assulting, raping, deflowering, little female humans .

I would suggest not ignoring beginning with the key word "renown"

Renown.. . heroes of faith. Not of their own self. Mighty men of old moved the the Spirit of Christ .Giants of faith

Used eleven times a neutral word. It can be applied to he camp of Christ, like David or that of the enemy like that of Goliath their own personal renown

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.

Numbers 1:16These were the renownedof the congregation, princes of the tribes of their fathers, heads of thousands in Israel.

Numbers 16:2
And they rose up before Moses, with certain of the children of Israel, two hundred and fifty princes of the assembly, famous in the congregation, men of renown:

Isaiah 14:20 Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.

Ezekiel 16:14 And thy renown went forth among the heathen for thy beauty: for it was perfect through my comeliness, which I had put upon thee, saith the Lord God.

Ezekiel 16:15 But thou didst trust in thine own beauty, and playedst the harlot because of thy renown, and pouredst out thy fornications on every one that passed by; his it was.

Ezekiel 23:23 The Babylonians, and all the Chaldeans, Pekod, and Shoa, and Koa, and all the Assyrians with them: all of them desirable young men, captains and rulers, great lords and renowned, all of them riding upon horses.

Ezekiel 26:17 And they shall take up a lamentation for thee, and say to thee, How art thou destroyed, that wast inhabited of seafaring men, the renowned city, which wast strong in the sea, she and her inhabitants, which cause their terror to be on all that haunt it!

Ezekiel 34:29 And I will raise up for them a plant of renown, and they shall be no more consumed with hunger in the land, neither bear the shame of the heathen any more.

Ezekiel 39:13 Yea, all the people of the land shall bury them; and it shall be to them a renown the day that I shall be glorified, saith the Lord God.

Daniel 9:15 And now, O Lord our God, that hast brought thy people forth out of the land of Egypt with a mighty hand, and hast gotten thee renown, as at this day; we have sinned, we have done wickedly

Make America great again . Vote for Christ our renown.

Not the renown as those who do not know the difference between male and female. A protecting wall or no wall. They must ignore the law of the renown.
 
Who are these guys?
“Then Ishbi-benob, who was among the descendants of the giant, the weight of whose spear was three hundred shekels of bronze in weight, had strapped on a new sword, and he intended to kill David.

Now it came about after this that there was war again with the Philistines at Gob; then Sibbecai the Hushathite struck and killed Saph, who was among the descendants of the giant.

And there was war at Gath again, where there was a man of great stature who had six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot, twenty-four in number; and he also had been born to the giant.

These four were born to the giant at Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.

Now it came about after this, that war broke out at Gezer with the Philistines; then Sibbecai the Hushathite killed Sippai, one of the descendants of the giants, and they were subdued.

Again there was war at Gath, where there was a man of great stature who had twenty-four fingers and toes, six fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot; and he also was descended from the giants. These were descended from the giants in Gath, and they fell by the hand of David and by the hand of his servants.”

(2 Samuel 21:16, 18, 20, 22; 1 Chronicles 20:4, 6, 8 NAS20)
 
The reality is angels had hybrids with human women.
Humans, like all other created things (plant and animal) reproduce after their own kind. There was no race of angel-human hybrids - it cannot happen.

One would think it’s an immutable law God wrote into Creation. He is not an author of confusion.

I would think those examples are of literal measure. The renown of the enemy giant Goliath . Unlike little David a renown of Christ .One GPS guided stone right between the eye pushed him forward

I would offer Its the gospel. . which is not all about deformities' or NBA unusual

The idea that the sons of God in Gen 6 were men in the line of Seth seems to be the correct one.
The previous two chapters covers the genealogy of Cain and Seth.
Cain is said to dwell in the land of Nod. He was sent there after he killed Abel.
He is said to have been sent out from the presence of the LORD.
It would seem that the sons of Seth remained in Eden, in the presence of the LORD.
The word Nod refers to wandering. The people of Nod were wandering out of the way of the LORD.
Also, in Gen 4:26, referring to the sons of Seth, it is said men began to calll upon the name of the LORD.
Looking at the KJV margin note we read of an alternate translation. It says, “men began to call themselves by the name of the LORD.”
That would be a direct reference as to why they are called sons of God.

Yes, exactly.

That's all possible, except that no-one remained in Eden. Adam and Eve were driven out of Eden and an angel was placed at the entrance, to prevent anyone from accessing the tree of life.

They were driven out of the garden of Eden. It seems the garden was planted in Eden.
I get the impression that one can be a son of God in Eden but cannot pass into the garden until receiving eternal life where the tree of life is planted.

While you may be right in the first, the second sentence is no proof against the notion of angels procreating.

—not that you said it was, but....

How do you know what an angel is made of?

We were made a little lower than the angels.

Descendants of the Nephilim.

If Seths people took the daughters of men...why would they produce Nephilim also known as giants? How does that genetics work?
 
How giant were they?
Some bigger than others...here's an example from Deut 3:11....(For only Og the king of Bashan was left of the remnant of the Rephaim. Behold, his bed was a bed of iron. Is it not in Rabbah of the Ammonites? Nine cubits was its length, and four cubits its breadth, according to the common cubit.)

Now, I suppose he could have had a big bed...but I believe the intention was to demonstrate his size.

Even the large size of Goliath is mentioned.

large giant skeletons have also been found works wide.
 
If Seths people took the daughters of men...why would they produce Nephilim also known as giants? How does that genetics work?
Genesis 6: 2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married any of them they chose. 3 Then the Lord said, “My Spirit will not contend with humans forever, for they are mortal; their days will be a hundred and twenty years.”

4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.


Verse 2 doesn't say what the sons of God were, but verse 3 would seem to imply that they are human, since that is whom the Lord said his Spirit would not contend with forever.

Verse 4 presents as a separate question, related only in coincidental era. These heroes of old, men of renown, were apparently on the earth both before and after the sons of God married the daughters of men. The inference is easy to make, but I don't see that context implies causation, here —That is, the daughters of men giving birth to the children of the "sons of God" may have no relevance to the Nephilim.

Outer Limits. No land of the Giants. Molesting, sexually abusing, assulting, raping, deflowering, little female humans .

I would suggest not ignoring beginning with the key word "renown"

Renown.. . heroes of faith. Not of their own self. Mighty men of old moved the the Spirit of Christ .Giants of faith
Remember what happened?...

Noah's family exited the ark....
And, began repopulating the earth.
To be passing down stories of what life was like before the flood.

Such mythical heroes as Hercules and Greek heroes are believed to have their origins rooted in the stories that had been passed down.
