sons of God came in unto the daughters of men...'

"Notice that there were giants 'in those days' and 'also after that' time as
well. Since the giants could only be coming from the sons of God inter-
breeding with the daughters of men, and since God wiped out the first in-
stance of this with the Great Flood, this would have to mean that such cou-
plings have occurred more than just once before the flood" (End Time
Thunder Publishers, Bozeman, MT 2009, pages 120-121, 128 and 130-
131).

3. Notice what we find in the book Hard Sayings of the Bible, by Kaiser,
Davids, Bruce and
Brauch:

"...there are such over-
whelming problems with
it [the angel theory] that
it is not recommended
as the solution to this
problem. While it is true,
of course, that the term
'sons of God' does occur
in Job 1:6, 2:1 and 38:7
with the meaning
'angels' (and that the
Angels Cannot Marry phrase 'sons of the

Mighty' appears in Ps.
29:1 and 89:7 with the meaning 'angels'), it does not fit well here for several
reasons.

"Nowhere else in Scripture are we told that angels married humans. In fact,
our Lord specifically stated that angels DO NOT marry (Mk. 12:25). And
though the Septuagint translated the expression as being equivalent to
'angels,' it is in fact only the Alexandrian manuscript that does so. The criti-
cal edition by Alfred Rahlfs does not reflect the angelic interpretation.

"Even more serious is the problem of why judgment should fall on the hu-
mans and on the earth if the angels of heaven were the cause of the trou-
bles. God should have flooded heaven, not the earth. The culprits came
from above; the women seem to have been doing nothing except being
beautiful!...
