ORIGINS
This information is intended to outline the origins of man from the birth of Adam and Eve’s three sons, the twins Cain and Abel, and Seth the replacement for Abel, whom Cain slew.
Genesis records tell us that the heavens and the earth were generated, [i.e. populated] by the two sons, Cain and Seth. Seth’s generation is that of earthly mankind, whereas Cain’s generation is that which populated the heavens and was recognised by the God given name: ‘The Nephilim’. These are the rebellious, resentful descendents of their father Cain, who had shown his true character before God, He became dejected and very angry when God refused his sacrifice. His face grew dark with fury. [Gen 4:5] .The literal Hebrew word used for this condition is naphal from which the plural name Nephilim is derived. [Please see By Grace No.19. The Generations of the Heaven and the Earth]. In this book of origins, fourteen generations follow that of Seth, ending with that of Jacob.
Because Cain, the eldest son of Adam occupied the planets before the Universal Flood, his generation did not die out at that time. The scripture says: The Nephilim were in the earth in those days and also after that. Because of their radically different living condition many of the Nephilim became genetically distorted having a gigantic stature. After God had promised the land of Canaan to Abraham and his seed [Gen 12:7] they returned to earth in an attempt to usurp God’s promise by confronting the Israelites during the ten years of their occupation of The Land.
The Nephilim became known by many different tribal names: the Anakim of Hebron….Ahiman, Sheshai, Talmai. The Rephaims in Ashteroth, The Zuzims in Ham, the Emims in Shaveh Kiriathaim of Moab, the Zamzummims in Ammon and the Horites in Mount Seir.
It was God’s command that Joshua should eliminate all these Nephilim from the promised land of Canaan.
Authentication of this single fact, i.e. that the Nephilim are the progeny of Adam’s son Cain is compromised if the statements in the seventh and eighth chapters of the book of Enoch are received, despite the comments of its translator and compiler R.H.Charles, that the early chapters of that book are corrupt.
Many Bible commentators and teachers have accepted these corrupt passages when interpreting the sixth chapter of the Book of Genesis. Because of this, they have concluded that the Nephilim are the progeny of the Sons of God, the angels This is an erroneous conclusion leading many to believe that the Nephilim are not human but a race apart from mankind, giving apparent Biblical substance to the physical existence of Extra-Terrestrial races.
These are the Bible’s words as in the 6th Chapter of Genesis [RSV] Those not in the Hebrew original have been removed:
When men began to multiply on the face of the ground and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that the daughters of men were fair; and they took to wife such of them as they chose……....The Nephilim were on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men, and they bore to them. These the mighty men of old, the men of renown.
The correct understanding is that the emphasised word ‘These’ relates directly to the phrase: ‘bore to them’. and that the Hebrew word for ‘when’ opens a phrase which tells at what point in time the Nephilim were in the earth.
Thus the ancient rebellion of Cain and his generation continued after the universal flood even to the present time, from their bases upon other planets of the Solar system, particularly Mars. The distorted record of this hidden fact has been perpetuated by ’evil men’ whose control of society has enabled them to distort many remarkable discoveries fed back to earth from the various devices which are to-day surveying those planets.
