“THERE WERE GIANTS in the earth in those days.” Those nine words are among the most controversial in the entire Bible.
Who or what were the Nephilim? Doug Van Dorn (www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of Chronicles of the Nephilim and the theological thriller Cruel Logic, join us for our monthly Iron and Myth roundtable to discuss the giants of the pre-Flood world.
We address the arguments against understanding these beings as literal hybrid creatures and explore the reasons why this interpretation is not taught in seminaries. We highlight the importance of addressing contrary views and the need to consider multiple interpretations of theological concepts.
Our conversation touches on the role of the Septuagint in understanding the giants and the connection between the giants and the divine council, the interpretation of the Hebrew word 'Nephilim' and its connection to the 'sons of God' and 'daughters of men' in Genesis 6, and the significance of cosmic geography and the cult of the dead in relation to the giants.
