These Neanderthal chicks may not be much to look at, but they sure are easy!

[SuzyQue]

This is also a theme in the apocryphal Book of Enoch: "6:1 And it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied that in those days were born unto 2 them beautiful and comely daughters. And the angels, the children of the heaven, saw and lusted after them, and said to one another: 'Come, let us choose us wives from among the children of men 3 and beget us children.'" http://www.world-mysteries.com/awr_1_10.htm

There's some wild stuff in there.

Inbreeding with Neanderthals might explain some members of the Democratic party...

Stop bring up James Carville. But then he does look..............LOL

He demonstrated they were not angels. He said the daughters of men were descendants of Cain while the sons of God were not. The mixture of Cain's nature with the other descendants was the precursor to the need for the flood.

The angel theory doesn't make sense to me, as angels evidently don't 'breed'. The idea that the daughters of men were the descendents of Cain is possible. I've sometimes wondered if maybe Daughters of men = Neanderthals.

The idea that these were angels can be found in the Book of Enoch, which although isn't canonical is referenced to in the New Testament. I'm not sure how much of the book can be trusted, what little I've read of it is pretty wild.

Possible...all possible. But it just doesn't add up.

If the daughters of men were the descendents of Cain then how does that make everyone else the sons of God?
Man was created from the elements of the Earth...and woman from man.
This doesn't seem a likely creature to be called the 'sons of God'.

Men were men and they had daughters. The passages in Genesis speak of giants who were called the sons of God...the Nephilim. To me, this speaks directly of a different species...and it creeps me out when I think on it too long.

It's almost a little too Erich von Danikenish.

An interesting piece of data. The Hebrew terms ben(01121) 'elohiym(0430) are only found together in 4 verses of the Old Testament. They are always used to indicate angels.

a) son, male child
b) grandson
c) children (pl. - male and female)
d) youth, young men (pl.)
e) young (of animals)
f) sons (as characterisation, i.e. sons of injustice [for un- righteous men] or sons of God [for angels]
g) people (of a nation) (pl.)
h) of lifeless things, i.e. sparks, stars, arrows (fig.)
i) a member of a guild, order, class

(Strong's 0430)
Hebrew for 0430
'elohiym

b) divine ones
c) angels
d) gods
2) (plural intensive - singular meaning)

b) godlike one
c) works or special possessions of God
d) the (true) God
e) God

Gen 6:2 That the sons 01121 of God 0430 saw 07200 the daughters 01323 of men 0120 that they 02007 [were] fair 02896; and they took 03947 them wives 0802 of all which they chose 0977 .

Gen 6:4 There were giants 05303 in the earth 0776 in those days 03117; and also after 0310 that 03651, when 0834 the sons 01121 of God 0430 came in 0935 unto the daughters 01323 of men 0120, and they bare 03205 [children] to them, the same 01992 [became] mighty men 01368 which [were] of old 05769, men 0582 of renown 08034.

Job 1:6 Now there was a day 03117 when the sons 01121 of God 0430 came 0935 to present 03320 themselves before the LORD 03068, and Satan 07854 came 0935 also among 08432 them.

Job 2:1 Again there was a day 03117 when the sons 01121 of God 0430 came 0935 to present 03320 themselves before the LORD 03068, and Satan 07854 came 0935 also among 08432 them to present 03320 himself before the LORD 03068.

The Neandertal Enigma
by James Shreeve

Frayer's own reading of the record reveals a number of overlooked traits that clearly and specifically link the Neandertals to the Cro-Magnons. One such trait is the shape of the opening of the nerve canal in the lower jaw, a spot where dentists often give a pain-blocking injection. In many Neandertal, the upper portion of the opening is covered by a broad bony ridge, a curious feature also carried by a significant number of Cro-Magnons. But none of the alleged 'ancestors of us all' fossils from Africa have it, and it is extremely rare in modern people outside Europe." [pp 126-127]

[RobRoy]

I believe one of the old Neaderthal cave scribblings was actually successfully translated back in the 50's. It said, "human women are easy!"

We've had the evidence under our nose for half a century and chose to ignore it.

[StructuredChaos]

Read Genesis again. But this time wherever you see the word God/Elohiym read it as Gods or Race of Gods and wherever you read Lord God/El Elohiym read it as "the leader of the God or Race of Gods" After having done this revisit your inquiry into Nephilim.

Kind of interesting when viewed this way. Further this plural take on Elohiym is consistent with earlier and similar Sumerian/Egyptian genesis like renditions.

If man was made in Gods' image then perhaps their images were/are alike enough such that a union of both could give rise to a viable amalgam - (i.e. nephilim). Reading Genesis can be a real trip. And, depending upon how it is read, it reveals frightening possibilities.
