Noah's Flood: Unveiling the Mystery of Sons of God

(Site format since June 2025. All underlined links are NOT external and open in the same window.)

The flood narrative is often read beginning at Genesis 6:5, but the preceding verses (Genesis 6:1–4) are essential for understanding why the flood occurs. Those verses describe the “sons of God” taking human women, producing the Nephilim, and setting in motion a pattern of escalating corruption. Ignoring this passage creates incoherence and makes God’s judgment seem arbitrary or excessive. The phrase “sons of God” is best understood in light of its usage elsewhere in Scripture, particularly in Job, where it clearly refers to divine beings in a heavenly council.

The recurring themes across civilizations—flood traditions, serpent imagery, divine-human hybrids—are seen not as coincidences but as fragments of truth that have been reshaped and corrupted. Counterfeit stories borrow from reality but twist it, much like false currency imitates genuine bills. The solution is not fascination with myths but deep familiarity with the biblical story. By knowing the authentic narrative—centered on God as the uncreated Creator and on His redemptive purposes—distortions and rival spiritual narratives can be recognized and resisted.

Scriptures:
Genesis 6:1 Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them,
2 that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose.
3 And the Lord said, “My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years.”
4 There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown.
5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

Jubilees 5:1 And it came to pass when the children of men began to multiply on the face of the earth and daughters were born unto them, that the malakim of YAHWEH saw them on a certain year of this jubilee, that they were beautiful to look upon; and they took themselves wives of all whom they chose, and they bare unto them sons and they were giants.
2 And torahlessness increased on the earth and all flesh corrupted its way, alike men and cattle and beasts and birds and everything that walks on the earth -all of them corrupted their ways and their orders, and they began to devour each other, and torahlessness increased on the earth and every imagination of the thoughts of all men (was) thus evil continually.

Jasher 4:18 And their judges and rulers went to the daughters of men and took their wives by force from their husbands according to their choice, and the sons of men in those days took from the cattle of the earth, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the air, and taught the mixture of animals of one species with the other, in order therewith to provoke YAHWEH; and YAHWEH saw the whole earth and it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted its ways upon earth, all men and all animals.
19 And YAHWEH said, I will blot out man that I created from the face of the earth, yea from man to the birds of the air, together with cattle and beasts that are in the field for I repent that I made them.

Enoch 7:1. It happened after the sons of men had multiplied in those days, that daughters were born to them, elegant and beautiful.
2. And when the angels, the sons of heaven, beheld them, they became enamoured of them, saying to each other. Come, let us select for ourselves wives from the progeny of men, and let us beget children.
3. Then their leader Samyaza said to them ; I fear that you may perhaps be indisposed to the performance of this enterprise ;
4. And that I alone shall suffer for so grievous a crime.
5. But they answered him and said ; We all swear
6. And bind ourselves by mutual execrations, that we will not change our intention, but execute our projected undertaking.
7. Then they swore all together, and all bound themselves by mutual execrations. Their whole number was two hundred, who descended upon Ardis, which is the top of mount Armon.

The sons of God are also called Watchers (Enoch). They are the rulers of this world. Not all their progenies are giants. Achilles was not a giant. The 3 races progeny of the Fallen Angels

Psalm 82

Job 38:6 To what were its foundations fastened? Or who laid its cornerstone,
7 When the morning stars sang together, And all the sons of God shouted for joy?

Matthew 22:29 Jesus answered and said to them, “You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures nor the power of God.
30 For in the resurrection they neither marry nor are given in marriage, but are like angels of God in heaven.

Genesis 19:1 Now the two angels came to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground.
2 And he said, “Here now, my lords, please turn in to your servant’s house and spend the night, and wash your feet; then you may rise early and go on your way.” And they said, “No, but we will spend the night in the open square.”
3 But he insisted strongly; so they turned in to him and entered his house. Then he made them a feast, and baked unleavened bread, and they ate.
4 Now before they lay down, the men of the city, the men of Sodom, both old and young, all the people from every quarter, surrounded the house.
5 And they called to Lot and said to him, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us that we may know them carnally.”
6 So Lot went out to them through the doorway, shut the door behind him,
7 and said, “Please, my brethren, do not do so wickedly!
8 See now, I have two daughters who have not known a man; please, let me bring them out to you, and you may do to them as you wish; only do nothing to these men, since this is the reason they have come under the shadow of my roof.”
9 And they said, “Stand back!” Then they said, “This one came in to stay here, and he keeps acting as a judge; now we will deal worse with you than with them.” So they pressed hard against the man Lot, and came near to break down the door.
10 But the men reached out their hands and pulled Lot into the house with them, and shut the door.
11 And they struck the men who were at the doorway of the house with blindness, both small and great, so that they became weary trying to find the door.

Jasher, Chapter 1

1 And YAHWEH said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness, and YAHWEH created man in his own image.
2 And YAHWEH formed man from the ground, and he blew into his nostrils the breath of life, and man became a living soul endowed with speech.
3 And YAHWEH said, It is not good for man to be alone; I will make unto him a helpmeet.
4 And YAHWEH caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept, and he took away one of his ribs, and he built flesh upon it, and formed it and brought it to Adam, and Adam awoke from his sleep, and behold a woman was standing before him.
5 And he said, This is a bone of my bones and it shall be called woman, for this has been taken from man; and Adam called her name Eve, for she was the mother of all living.
6 And YAHWEH blessed them and called their names Adam and Eve in the day that he created them, and YAHWEH the ALMIGHTY said, Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.
7 And YAHWEH the ALMIGHTY took Adam and his wife, and he placed them in the garden of Eden to dress it and to keep it; and he commanded them and said unto them, From every tree of the garden you may eat, but from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat thereof you shall surely die.
8 And when YAHWEH had blessed and commanded them, he went from them, and Adam and his wife dwelt in the garden according to the command which YAHWEH had commanded them.
9 And the serpent, which YAHWEH had created with them in the earth, came to them to incite them to transgress the command of YAHWEH which he had commanded them.
10 And the serpent enticed and persuaded the woman to eat from the tree of knowledge, and the woman hearkened to the voice of the serpent, and she transgressed the word of YAHWEH, and took from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and she ate, and she took from it and gave also to her husband and he ate.
11 And Adam and his wife transgressed the command of YAHWEH which he commanded them, and YAHWEH knew it, and his anger was kindled against them and he cursed them.
12 And YAHWEH the ALMIGHTY drove them that day from the garden of Eden, to till the ground from which they were taken, and they went and dwelt at the east of the garden of Eden; and Adam knew his wife Eve and she bore two sons and three daughters.
13 And she called the name of the first born Cain, saying, I have obtained a man from YAHWEH, and the name of the other she called Abel, for she said, In vanity we came into the earth, and in vanity we shall be taken from it.
14 And the boys grew up and their father gave them a possession in the land; and Cain was a tiller of the ground, and Abel a keeper of sheep.
15 And it was at the expiration of a few years, that they brought an approximating offering to YAHWEH, and Cain brought from the fruit of the ground, and Abel brought from the firstlings of his flock from the fat thereof, and YAHWEH turned and inclined to Abel and his offering, and a fire came down from YAHWEH from heaven and consumed it.
16 And unto Cain and his offering YAHWEH did not turn, and he did not incline to it, for he had brought from the inferior fruit of the ground before YAHWEH, and Cain was jealous against his brother Abel on account of this, and he sought a pretext to slay him.
17 And in some time after, Cain and Abel his brother, went one day into the field to do their work; and they were both in the field, Cain tilling and ploughing his ground, and Abel feeding his flock; and the flock passed that part which Cain had ploughed in the ground, and it sorely grieved Cain on this account.
18 And Cain approached his brother Abel in anger, and he said unto him, What is there between me and you, that you come to dwell and bring your flock to feed in my land?
19 And Abel answered his brother Cain and said unto him, What is there between me and you, that you shall eat the flesh of my flock and clothe thyself with their wool?
20 And now therefore, put off the wool of my sheep with which you hast clothed thyself, and recompense me for their fruit and flesh which you hast eaten, and when you shall have done this, I will then go from your land as you hast said?
21 And Cain said to his brother Abel, Surely if I slay you this day, who will require your blood from me?
22 And Abel answered Cain, saying, Surely YAHWEH who has made us in the earth, he will avenge my cause, and he will require my blood from you shouldst you slay me, for YAHWEH is the judge and arbiter, and it is he who will requite man according to his evil, and the wicked man according to the wickedness that he may do upon earth.
23 And now, if you shouldst slay me here, surely YAHWEH knows your secret views, and will judge you for the evil which you didst declare to do unto me this day.
24 And when Cain heard the words which Abel his brother had spoken, behold the anger of Cain was kindled against his brother Abel for declaring this thing.
25 And Cain hastened and rose up, and took the iron part of his ploughing instrument, with which he suddenly smote his brother and he slew him, and Cain spilt the blood of his brother Abel upon the earth, and the blood of Abel streamed upon the earth before the flock.
26 And after this Cain repented having slain his brother, and he was sadly grieved, and he wept over him and it vexed him exceedingly.
27 And Cain rose up and dug a hole in the field, wherein he put his brother's body, and he turned the dust over it.
28 And YAHWEH knew what Cain had done to his brother, and YAHWEH appeared to Cain and said unto him, Where is Abel your brother that was with you?
29 And Cain dissembled, and said, I do not know, am I my brother's keeper? And YAHWEH said unto him, What hast you done? The voice of your brother's blood cries unto me from the ground where you hast slain him.
30 For you hast slain your brother and hast dissembled before me, and didst imagine in your heart that I saw you not, nor knew all your actions.
31 But you didst this thing and didst slay your brother for naught and because he spoke rightly to you, and now, therefore, cursed be you from the ground which opened its mouth to receive your brother's blood from your hand, and wherein you didst bury him.
32 And it shall be when you shall till it, it shall no more give you its strength as in the beginning, for thorns and thistles shall the ground produce, and you shall be moving and wandering in the earth until the day of your death.
33 And at that time Cain went out from the presence of YAHWEH, from the place where he was, and he went moving and wandering in the land toward the east of Eden, he and all belonging to him.
34 And Cain knew his wife in those days, and she conceived and bare a son, and he called his name Enoch, saying, In that time YAHWEH began to give him rest and quiet in the earth.
35 And at that time Cain also began to build a city: and he built the city and he called the name of the city Enoch, according to the name of his son; for in those days YAHWEH had given him rest upon the earth, and he did not move about and wander as in the beginning.
36 And Irad was born to Enoch, and Irad begat Mechuyael and Mechuyael begat Methusael.
