21st Century Burning Bushes
Volume IV: End-Times and Wonders — Chapter 24
The Nephilim
This page is a living companion to the chapter in the book. It summarizes the chapter, adds videos and resources, and will be updated as new developments unfold.
About This Chapter
Reports of giant skeletons unearthed across the United States led to a deeper look at Genesis 6 — the “sons of God” taking the “daughters of men,” and the Nephilim who followed. What we make of these four verses shapes how we read the Flood, the giants of Canaan, and Jesus’ warning that the end will be like the days of Noah.
Researchers such as Michael Heiser and L.A. Marzulli distinguish the terms: Nephilim speaks of origin — the hybrid offspring of fallen angels and human women — while “giant” simply describes stature.

From Genesis 3:15 onward, the serpent’s strategy has been to corrupt the human seed or to kill it, to stop the promised Seed — Christ — from coming.
Who Are the Sons of God?
The chapter weighs the Sethite reading against the view, held in this chapter, that the sons of God were angels.
The Nephilim Diaspora
After Joshua’s conquest, the trail leads to Og and the cities of Bashan, and is followed by some researchers to sites such as America’s Stonehenge, the Serpent Mound, and the elongated skulls of Paracas.
