Could there have been human offspring of these fallen angels? As we recall from Untold Adam and Eve, there could have been angels who fell just around the time of Adam. The reason: envy and jealousy. Adam was what the angels were to bow down to, and some groups wanted no part of that. Satan, I believe, was among one group of these fallen angels. From research on ancient texts, two or three groups of fallen angels seem to come up in the literature, again and again. First, we have Satan and his group of strictly-spiritual angels (or "sons of heaven") who probably fell around the time of Adam. Second, we have the group of angels now known as the Nephilim (or "strangers"), who also fell around this time; their physical make up a lot closer to humans. When they fell, unlike Satan and his brigade, they easily were able to take on human form. The third group of angelic beings would fall much later, a few hundred years before Noah's flood. They, too, were close to human in form, and would fall much the same way the Nephilim did. This group was called the Watchers. The three would wreak havoc on the world of Noah's day, and quickly help God to make the decision to destroy them all. What simply happened was that the serpent could have mated with Eve, and, possibly, other women of the day, and this produced children. The serpent has many names: Nachash, Azazel and Amalek, for example. What began from these unions formed individual groups, or nations, of people, such as the (pre-flood) Amalekites. These fallen angels, known as the Nephilim and Watchers, were now to walk as everyone else. They were no longer were subjective to Adam. Cain and other of the serpent's descendants also multiplied, and formed their own nations. These other groups of people of the day (see Birds and Beasts) - the Chay (beasts) of the Field, The Owph (fowl) of the Air, the Remes (creeping thing) that Creepeth, and the Bahemah - lost their place in the organization which was once the world of the garden. After this, they left off to live their own ways in the world. This led to the people of the day to go off in their own ways morally, as well as mingling or cohabiting one with another. Although, in the end, there was nothing wrong with groups of people mixing together, what was happening at the time of these fallen angels posed major problems. The Nephilim, upon helping to overthrow Adam's authority, were now involved in other ways of exploitation and manipulation. The women of the day became seduced by their overwhelming stature, charm and knowledge, and were being sexually exploited as well. Many of the children born unto them became known, today, as the Biblical giants. The sons of Cain, or Cainites, also mingled with other people. What began a fairly simple and orderly world was now becoming very complex, and the Nephilim used their powers to increase the sinful ways of the people. Approximately 500 years after the creation of Adam, the Nephilim began to have these hybrids: "First, they were called Nefilim, the fallen, at the time they were dropped down from heaven. After they joined up with the females of human kind and had children from them, the children were called Anakim." The Zohar 40 Shlach Lecha 10 This is echoed in Genesis: Genesis (KJV) 6:1 "And it came to pass, when man began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 6:4 There were giants (Nephilim) on the earth in those days..." Intermingled in these confusing verses of Genesis we have the mention of another group of individuals bent on the same outcome as the Nephilim. The Nephilim fell because they were jealous of Adam around the time of the Garden, and wanted to bring him down, as well. Almost 500 years after the Nephilim fell, and first cohabited with women, the Watchers also began to crumble the morality of the world. Lets see how. The Nephilim were endowed with a great amount of previously unheard-of knowledge: herbalism, divination, astrology, etc. They used this knowledge to seduce women into fulfilling their own earthly, sexual desires. The Watchers were another group of large angels (also mentioned in Daniel 4:13 and 17) who were apparently unscathed by the first fall of Adam. These were also about to come to the Nephilim's same fate. The Watchers (or "sleepless" angels) were assigned to "watch" over mankind, and instruct them in good or wholesome ways of living. They had the tasks of overseeing and assisting human beings in many of their worldly decisions. They noticed, however, how sinful mankind had become because of their departure of morality, due to the Nephilim. They also began to complain to God: "And God said unto them... 'I created him out of the dust... and I will not make my handiwork a laughingstock for his enemies.' And those angels said... 'knowest that we have reviled Adam.' And God answered them on behalf of Adam... 'You have I created out of fire and air with the one intent (that ye should) praise (Me). Him have I created of twice as many elements as you - of dust and water, and of wind and fire... And if his heart inciteth him to good, he walketh with good intent; and if the devil seduceth him, he walketh with him on an evil path. As for you, ye have no other object in your minds but praise of Me... And now, why do ye magnify yourselves above Adam? If ye were as he is... ye would have transgressed My commandment more than he hath done...' And the angels said unto Him... 'we will not oppose Thy word; for we are spiritual beings for life, and he is a creature of dust (doomed) to folly...' And straightway there were given unto them... flesh, and blood, and a heart of the children of men." Kerba Nagast: 100 Concerning the Angels Apparently, the Watchers wanted to prove something to God. They apparently thought, with their superior intellect, they would not have the weakness and ignorance to do anything like their predecessors. Even though they often descended to the earth, to teach people upright and worthy sentiments, they did not understand how worldly temptation could change those who were under it. When God allowed them to descend, they would not fair much better, which brings us to the second part of Genesis Six. This is a most confusing verse, without our understanding of all the above. With all of this information, however, it makes sense: Genesis (KJV) 6:2 "That the sons of God (the Watchers) saw the daughters of men that they were fair, and took them wives of all they chose. 6:4 There were giants (the Nephilim) in the earth in those days (of the Watcher's descent); and also after that (after the time of their descent), when the sons of God (the Watchers) came into the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same (children of the Watchers) became the mighty men which were of old (or, from those angels of old), men of renown (or, men who 'made a name for themselves')." Even the Watchers blew it! Instead of showing God they could handle the world, they fell, just like the Nephilim did. That is why they are lumped together with them in these verses. They also fell to the temptations of these women, and bore children. They also taught those women and others a lot more of these previously forbidden tidbits of knowledge, in exchange for sexual favors. Immorality was everywhere, thanks to the sacrilegious and indecent behaviors of these fallen angels. The descendants of the Nephilim and Watchers were called "giants" because they were indeed, thus. The hybrid Nephilim descendants were up to nine feet tall, those of the Watchers were a lot bigger, up to fourteen feet. These human-angelic unions produced some other strange, and, ultimately, compromising genetic possibilities. Among them, infants who had a brilliant, "angelic-like" countenance (a bright, shining appearance, much like you would picture an angelic being to have), as well as those who had 6 fingers and toes. The reason for their large stature may have been, as ancient texts show, because the human race was created with a lot of the same attributes as these angels: a brilliant countenance, and much larger bodily structure. This was a sign of quality, at one time: close to an angel of God. After the fall, Adam and all those around him were reduced in size, and began to lose their angelic-like countenance over the generations. The angels, however, were still endowed with a lot more of these genetics up to their fall, so when their human-angelic offspring were born, they retained a lot more of these genetic qualities. They passed on their physical and social deviations to the Cainites (the sons of Cain). Although they had these superior qualities, they were still fallen. As we recall from Untold Adam and Eve, there was a prophecy made by God: "And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel." Genesis 3:15 KJV These Nephilim and Watchers were now in the same "boat" as Satan: they lost all of their authority in heaven because of Adam (or, because of their jealously of him), and were condemned for their disobedient, immoral behavior. Their reward was given to them in this world, already. They were allowed to mate with women. They had no other choice at redemption. What did they have to lose, besides everything they had already lost? Perhaps, they thought, since they already made Adam fall, they could destroy the chances of Adam's seed to produce the promised one - that could allow them to, possibly, avoid their own judgment. Maybe, if they could insert themselves into any and every woman around, the "crusher" of the serpent's head (who would be Jesus Christ) would not be born. Then, the prophecy of God would not be fulfilled. What a reason to sexually infiltrate the world with angelic sperm! God, however, would not go down that easily. God told everyone who really cared about him that soon there would be a flood coming, at least to punish those who caused this infiltration to take place. There would be a way out for the seed of Adam, to be able to preserve the seed to who would, one day, deliver the Christ. God, the merciful God he is, gave everyone of the day a chance for repentance; I believe, not only of Adamic seed, but also other groups. He also tried to show the disobedient horrible signs and wonders, so they would know for sure he wasn't kidding: "... and God did this mighty act, in order to terrify the sons of men, that there might be nor more evil upon the earth. And still the sons of men would not return from their evil ways, and they increased the anger of the Lord as that time, and did not even direct their hearts to all this." The Book of Jasher 6:11-12 Obviously, temptation was everywhere, and the people didn't even care. These angelic-human descendants made it hard for anyone else who was trying to live a pure and descent life to stay moral. The world was almost completely swallowed up in offspring who had blood of these fallen angels. All sorts of immoral actions took place. There were a few, however, who tried to remain moral. There were a few who tried to keep physically pure, because they knew, for Christ's sake, they should keep it that way. There were a few who wanted the promised seed of Adam and Eve to be born. There is a great deal more about this in my book, which goes into great detail about how life was lived back then, and why something so drastic, as in Noah's flood, had to happen. We will see in Other Flood Survivors what happened next.
