In standard texts the overlord watchers commit fallen angel rapine, which violence accounts for their bad attitude. Giants are the result of this inbreeding and hybridization. Demons are the disembodied spirits of these giants whose bodies were later killed. Their spirits, being part immortal, lost foundation in the visible dimensions, and wandered looking for recourse. It's important for overlords to hide their origins in these giants first so the system of evolution, base simple to great complex beings can be invented and not shown it is the other way around, great complex fallen into dust and decay in the devolution of all three classes, angel, giants and men. Giants disprove evolution, that things are going up, and man is moving forward, when all along they and he have been cast out and going down. The fate of the man however has been interposed by special dispensation and intervention of the Creator, which brings him an entirely improved identity, yea a reborn one. The double dentured, six fingered/toes on the verge which critics mumble about are the Annunaki of the Sumerian tablets, fallen angel spirits who falsely claim they are the true owners and creators of earth when in fact they have betrayed their trust and their mission and have been supplanted by the man. This is one source of their onus against the human and their schemes to destroy the entire human genome. Their second attempt, one should say, as Annunaki standins for Nephilim angels engineer the deal. Offended at the human interloper and his evident favor with the Father that these former sons of light once knew, I mean the LORD strong and mighty, the LORD mighty in battle, the complaints of their ill fortune ring through Enoch I, Psalm 8 and all the reputed monologues of injured merit comprised in Paradise Lost. They are still complaining. So if when you're up you're down and when down up, who can keep up? Bu what has kept Nuki from finishing the deal so carefully strategized and planned over millennia? Well it's not the Sumerians of Oxford and Stitchin who pretend to read the Tablets but can hardly write a disingenuous paragraph. Zachariah's announcement delivered that in that day of the Lord the weakest among us will be as David and David like the angel counts that the simple faith of one born of Messiah is that strong.. David Petraeus was right again.
To see how through trusted means we got to where all that was trusted is mistrusted, keep the lineage of fallen angel watchers, nephilim, giants, demons in mind. News accounts attest to them all over earth. We would document it but if you don't know you have been lied to on every front, click on.
In the Greek, meta schematizo means Satan masquerades, 2 Cor. 11.14. In the meta-schizo disguise (meta-schiz-matizo), like the demons sent into the Gadarene swine (Mk 5.11) who ask to not be sent out of the country, ie. out of the space between two places (planes, dimensions), there is a connect of these medievals to the romantics. Persecuted but not abandoned, struck down but not destroyed, hard pressed on every side, di Bartolo's frescos of hell, from Leviathan to Shelley, frustrate an attempt to deny from 1400 that such spiritual realities exist. The date is arbitrary. In a day when we have transworld salvation and transworld damnation hell is declined. It lacks social media, no peasants in churches go to see the saved or the damned, the saints or the devils. All non church goers see is invisible writing on the wall covered with the controls they can't see. Transworld Molinism, after the Jesuit, is the Transworld depravity adopted by Craig and Plantinga as the property a person has if he would commit a sin in any of the superpositional worlds in which he was or might have been created.
I was just trying to find a source for Cornelius van Til saying it was a Christian moon when I found that transworld damnation "is possessed by any person who freely does not respond to God's grace and so is lost in every world feasible for God in which that person exists." So if there are a thousand yous in a thousand worlds only one needs to be saved. If you are one of those you understand there is nothing Satan has done or can do not to create his own finished judgment -- witness the numbering of the people which confirmed the site of the temple. All Satan did, like Balaam, was to bless the building of the Temple. Balaam cannot curse but only bless even if he wishes otherwise.
"For all the gods of the nations are idols - All the gods worshiped by the people of other lands are "idols." None of them can claim real existence as gods. The word here rendered "idols" translated by the Septuagint, is δαιμόνια daimonia, "demons." So also the Latin Vulgate "daemonia." The Hebrew word - אליל 'ĕlı̂yl - means properly "of nothing, nought, empty, vain." See Job 13:4. The meaning of idols is that they were mere nothings, have no real existence; were creations of the imagination and could not be regarded as what they pretended to be; they had no claim to reverence and worship as gods." Barnes' Notes, Psalm 96.5, taken from I Chron 16.26 http://bible.cc/psalms/96-5.htm
In the modern scheme of Dantean three heavens, three hells and untold worlds between, illuminists, politicians, prophets and priests with all their alarms, survey the vast intelligences paid to nephilim fallens. Artificial intelligence and science mutations, cloning and hybridizing in dark tunnels such as the seven levels under Dulce base or Denver Airport realize human civilizations. The modern intellectual and artistic expressions in their erudite and vulgar forms, do not however realize that this human is more that all the pantheons of the Roman alien put together. We are not the walkover we are painted to be. This is obvious in all the forces mounted against us to destroy, and if so, then why, for what?
I tell you why, we got something they don't got! Putting on that reality is like throwing a bucket of gasoline on the embers our destroyers think they have made of the Old and New Testaments. So Get Ready, Get Ready. We are made for this. We embrace it. We have no part in it except to see it. You gonna defeat Delta force with a hand gun, the robotim and clones of Psalm 2 and the nephilim of Genesis 6? A thousand shall fall at your side, ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not come near you. Only with your eyes will you see you see the reward of the wicked. So we must be superior (more valuable than) to all that puts itself upon us, or tries to, and that is the reason for what they do, which should be obvious at the start. We have made Yahweh our refuge, the Most High is our habitation. No evil shall befall us. And finally the ancient word that Satan wanted to test the real King with comes true, for now His angels shall bear thee up lest you dash your foot against a stone! How a man untainted must gall those who claim none are. All civilization asks about the wrong thought that Israel was made to example, but the right thought is Psalms 145-50.
When Jesus the Messiah says that if" by the finger of Yahweh He casts out demons then the kingdom of God is come upon you,' and if, as the Greek reads, he said kurios, Greek for God, no one doubts he meant and said, the Kingdom of Yahweh is come upon you. So whether Lindisfarne, Wycliffe, Tyndale, German, Scandinavian or English the point is that in the Son of Yahweh the kingdom plunders the plunderer. This is the biblical concept; plunder the plunderer, destroy the destroyer, stop the mouth of the avenger (Psalm 8), forbid demonic speech (Mark. 1.25, 34), which are matters that Jude says the Archangel Michael could not do directly, for he could not speak in this Name. But as Ezekiel 39 says of the plunder of Gog and Magog, they shall spoil those that spoiled them and rob those that robbed them. Immediately following the fall of the strong man's house, the fall of the todaelde, his helm, the texts of Luke cited above say further, "he that is not with me is against me" (KJV). This is to say that our authority resides in this: "I am in the Father, you are in me and I am in you" (John 14.11). So truly the Kingdom of Yahweh comes upon you.
As to that facetious question the Son of Yahweh is asked, which wife of the seven the woman would be, Jesus says, none, for in heaven there is no marrying or giving in marriage, for they are "equal to the angels (Luke 20.36). But consider as Hebrews 1.13 does, citing Psalm 110.1, that to which of the angels did he say "sit thou here while I make thine enemies thy footstool." The answer is none, which is to say neither to any angels did he say, "you are in me and I am in you," or otherwise referring to those who are "made the righteousness of Yahweh in him" (2 Cor 5.21). To none of the angels did he put all things under his feet (Psalm 8). The authority of plundering the plunderer comes from this. He has subjected captivity. (Psalm 68.18). The house plundered is more than its possessions. It is the self. In a kind of opposite conceit the Yeshua plunderer is freed from captivity even as he frees, "the slave abideth not in the house forever" (John 8.35), hence "if the Son shall make you free you shall be free indeed." Plunderers of the nephilim await Yahweh to empower his sons who abide in Him to cast these mountains into the midst of the sea. There is a long line of these: Adam, Seth, Enosh, Kenan, Mahalalel, Jared, [against the two hundred fallen watchers who descended in the days of Jared in the summit of Mount Hermon. 1 Enoch 6:6], Enoch, Methuselah, Lamech, Noah.
A taste for such lineage comes to the tenth in a line of forebearers who settled the new world in Philadelphia. I was never quite a tin man intelligensia, having no credentials, but rationality is a good, and careful logic, fair selection of examples, the avoidance of error. Even in that segment of the life of fictional and poetic forays, the parables want to be fair. The choices become however that to be right is to agree with the meliorists that this is the best of all possible worlds and getting better, but not one in which we can live and work. Presented with going along or confronting the worst possibilities of the senses alert, chronicled more and more in writing since 2010, inklings from the entertained seriously purpose that the purpose of the literary scientific establishment is to induce sleep, indifference and impotence even while bullets are flying. If a signal is needed from our best and brightest, the Russians, then Victor Pelevin's Life of Insects (1993) serves for many. Businessmen and security agents are really insects.
In another time such thoughts as ruminate here would be
reproached by the tin men revealing their own fears. To a large degree this point
of view continues unchanged among the intelligensia.
However these wraiths are anesthetized away, Lucifer, the cherub that originally covered the throne, is the Renowns' master, not to say father, for there was an interbreeding between those princes, called Watchers when they raped our women. That they turn around and say they were seduced, blame the victim, makes them paradigms of Woody Allen, otherwise known as high democrats. When this Cherub Lucifer was deposed his role was assumed by two who then covered (as in the ark). But Satan, for that is his name now, retained his powers of anointing and the great gifts listed in Isaiah 14 and Ezekiel 28. In our world that strange law that if a house is vacant a squatter can come and possess it as if he had the rights of the original is claimed. Hence squatters are said to have rights before the law and can hardly be evicted. In the spiritual realms however they can be evicted and dispossessed. For this purpose came the one who said, as the Anglo Saxon remedies:

Lindisfarne reads:
"Gyf donne strengra ofer hine cymþ and hine ofer-winþ, ealle his wæpnu, de
he on-truwode, he him afyrþ, and todælþ his here-reaf."
Tyndale says, "Sothli if a strongere
comynge above overcome him, he schal tak a wey alle his armeris, in which
he tristide, and schal dele abrood his spuylis,"
Wycliffe that: when a stronger than he cometh apon
hym and overcommeth hym, he taketh from him his harnes, wherein he trusted, and
devideth his gooddes.
Modern prophets fatalistically assume the point that prophecy would establish, but a Third Temple, or Fourth Temple (!) is not yet built. Those presciently
capable of subliminal conditioning and direct politics operating in Washington D.C. as a mirror-Vatican, which preoccupies hundreds of years of planning Egyptian mythology are conditioned by the men of renown so smart they can do all these things in open view and then
explain as if they were nothing. Hence they subvert the prophecy of St. John to prepare for
their one world transcendent empire. The whole myth and fact of the breaking dimensions at
CERN waits in line to assist. Line up naked masses to be shot or
gassed. The ballet dancer comes to mind who began to dance and took the gun
away from the guard and killed him. Some indeed resisted. Kill the nephilim!
It's been done. Esau killed Nimrod. Kill the giants. It's been done. Don't worry about transgressing the prophet, whoever that is, by
annihilating these spirits. Jude says Michael dared not accuse Satan over
the body of Moses, but we do not speak for Michael. None of the angels made the
world. We are not speaking in the name of angels or our own name or with our own power but with the
power of Word that made all things and in Whom all things are held
together. I am in the Father, you are in me and I am in you. You shall ask what
you will and it shall be done for you. Let CERN therefore be swallowed
up. Let it be swallowed by the earth in the Name that is Above
every name. And when CERN goes let tyranny go with it, and hybrids,
technology and silicone genetics! Know you not that you shall judge angels? I
Cor 6.2-3. The commentator says, "Christ has been exalted above all the
angels (see Ephesians
1:20-23), and it seems reasonable that those who are in Him and made in His
likeness (Romans 8:29; 1 Corinthians 15:49; Ephesians 4:24; 1 John 3:2) will share in
His authority, including His authority over the angels (Matthew 19:28; 2 Timothy 2:12; Revelation 20:4)." So be reasonable.
It seems superfluous that the Council of
Nicea changed the gospel by omission and commission, and therefore
that all letter of instruction is lessened in importance. It is superfluous to think as Israel did after Babylon that not saying the Name of Father is an act of respect and holiness. Discernment is vested in reason. Reason is
examination of sources. Caution would be better applied to the cautioner!
Where does discernment come from anyway but models of reality we make
ourselves, expectations based on boundaries, customs we believe in? One test
continually taken of discernment might occur when no matter what the
report or the news, the first thought would be how this fits into the big
picture woven by Renowns. Doubt would itself begin
the textbook of understanding the
methodeia. Reverse engineering occurs when one country
steals the technology of another and reengineers it, except the purpose here isn't
to rebuild it, but to piece together with other clues the myriad elements
of the methodeia design. The environment of conflicting disinformations
attributed to groups, singly as in Illuminati councils or
as hegemony among Watchers who scheme singly and jointly in groups
and all in one group whole, hide one hand behind the back, show the
endgame where three of the ten heads are demolished by the Beast. The only
way to discern that is by contrast with the word that opposes it. That is
the quick and powerful, discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart.
It is pointless to say we should abide in the Father
without this Word when the means of our meditation in those very Psalms show us to abide in the Father. It's not as if Genesis is
dictating Sumerian notions of creation by the warlords of outer space. Higher and lower mind may discern that reliance is never
merely in the letter of the Septuagint at least, not to
speak of fragments of the gospels found in the Dead Sea
scroll caves. So
the prevalent inner life of praise and worship that preoccupies David, Isaiah,
Daniel, not to speak of the Savior, that empowers the three boys before they go
in the furnace and in the furnace is not just Galatians 3 where all the
attempt of gentiles to identify with the Hebrew is pointless, but Romans 9-11
too, since they are already sons of Abraham by faith and those who are not of
faith are none at all. Descartes asks, can the imperfect originate the perfect?
It cannot. So the promise comes to the gentiles outside the ceremonies and
disobediences of Israel.
You need to get your own.
Disobedience is encouraged by the reliance upon the
letter of the word only and not its utterance. Anyone can speak the letter and for
any purpose as the Torah codes show. All deception goes by the letter and is only prevented by
discernment. Reliance upon the letter has produced as many lame constructions
baptized as systemic theology as those divisions. Not far from here one is
drawn to conclude that anyone deceived by the cherub has allowed it, with all the
reasons to be offered. There are 28,000 pastors who have committed to work for
FEMA in that day when the government comes to take you from your home. They
will tell you to obey Romans 13. That is to say they themselves are the enemy of the
Father. Hence they have been conditioned by prophecy to accept their demise,
that there is nothing to be done except sit back and admit defeat. Prophecy
must come true, right? but their god of wrath is the god of the earth who seeks
to open the portals. I have heard the words prayed in church, "I pray God you do not
destroy us." Faith however is a portal to the Father of lights, of
Goodness! More are with us than against us! Messiah did not die on the cross to
give us a book, say what. Jesus Messiah is not the living
Word of God transformed to a book! He is the Word together, not a false choice meant to
hide something else, that being the destruction of the body, the letter.
But CERN will be swallowed by the earth! All things under
His feet! Dash them to pieces. Earthquake 10.0 breaks it in half. Turns it
over. The power of Jesus substituted by, confined to a book, is the thought
that if the word says it, prophecy demands it, we must acquiesce to it,
completely obviating His word that if we have a grain of mustard seed of faith
we shall say to CERN, be broken and swallowed by the earth, and it will be so! Why
should I give up and not fight for the lives of my children and grandchildren.
If I don't who will!
Indiscriminate Notes: To say there are localities prepared by the Nephilim for false rapture lift offs is their form of population control. Compare this with the current series Leftovers as predictive programing. Nearly every TV show and ad and all literature is suspect of quisling intent, an educated class to implement co-opted events. Consider the suppressed videos of Apollo 11 and the airbrushing of Mars photos.The nephs are prescient beyond knowing so they create a show which sows all kinds of disinformative doubts upon their own programs, that some people are "lenses" of disappearance in order not only to cloud their acts but to create guilt in the population for being victimized, a debasement and diversion of all that people believe, even the meaning of words themselves, which is what Nimrod did, as Jerusalem Targum says: "He was mighty in hunting (or in prey) and in sin before God, for he was a hunter of the children of men in their languages; and he said unto them, Depart from the religion of Shem, and cleave to the institutes of Nimrod." (Clarke). In the TV show the town of Miracle where every foundation and ground of being is overturned is like lives under nephilim rule. Not only a finger in every pie but in every cherry and the crust rises with their gas which you are charged for so that infinite debt makes you a willing buyer of that new loan forgiveness program when you swear to live in galactic peace, just before you are attained.

Dichotomies everywhere, on all sides say abide with the
Father to gain discernment as opposed to following the letter. But Jesus says
if you abide in me and my word abides in you you shall ask what you will and it
shall be done, so the letter is like himself, as Psalm 138 says, you have
exalted above all things your word and your name. This is important because the
written word is the instrument of the meditation that abides in the Father, so
that I am put before the moment in the moment that after succeeds in the moment. That is rescue. So
wait on the LORD, says Psalm 27, and he shall strengthen your heart, wait
patiently for Him, says Psalm 37, wait, my hope in in Him, Psalm 39, I waited
patiently for the LORD, Psalm 40. I know this saves the lives of others but
what it does to oneself is it makes abiding all in all as we
begin to calculate how many times he has saved, delivered and sanctified us
before our inquiring, answered our prayers before they were prayed, before ever
the situations arose that we knew them. Before the foundation of the world,
before the cataclysm of the neph. Here's the first problem I have with the nephilim
and with Nimrod and even Gilgamesh: the disrespect of woman. It is our women
not theirs, so I say this to Nephs: the Lord of Heaven and Earth, the
only Lord confuse your councils and break into pieces never again put together
all your plans.
Benson says: Zechariah 12:8-9. In
that day shall the Lord defend the inhabitants of Jerusalem
— Not only Jerusalem
itself from being taken and destroyed, but all the inhabitants of it from being
in any way injured: he will not only be a wall of fire about the city to
fortify it, but he will compass particular persons with his favor as with a
shield. The mystical Jerusalem,
the Christian Church, and particularly that of the converted Jews, seems to be
chiefly intended. And he that is feeble among them shall be as David — The
feeblest among them shall be men of war, bold and brave, skillful and strong:
shall enterprise and accomplish great things, as David did, and become as
serviceable to Jerusalem in guarding it as David himself was in founding and
enlarging it, and as formidable as he was to the enemies of it. Observe,
reader, God helps and defends his church and people by giving them courage and
strength to defend and help themselves. He enables them to do their part, and
then he is not wanting to do his. And the house of David shall be as God — Or,
as angels, as the word אלהים, Elohim, is rendered, Psalm 8:3. As the angel of the
Lord before them — Or, at the head of them; as that angel (so some interpret
it) which went before the people of Israel through the wilderness, Exodus 23:20. God will increase
the gifts and abilities, both of the people and princes, in proportion to the
respective services for which they are designed. It was said of David, that he
was as an angel of God, to discern good and bad, 2 Samuel 14:17; such shall
now the house of David be. But this was to have its full accomplishment in
Christ: now the house of David looked little and mean, and its glory was
eclipsed, but in Christ the house of David was to shine more bright than ever.
In him it was to become more blessed, and more a blessing than ever it had
been. And l will seek to destroy all the nations, &c. — See notes on Zechariah 12:3-6.
Angel Passages cut from Fall
Mr. Bloom finds much spectral glory in
Merrill's ricochet of "extended angelic passages" (197) and
rescission of Yeats' A Vision, though
there is a difference between Merrill's twenty years at the Ouija and Yeats' twenty months of automatic
writing. Yeats' wife Georgie was his medium starting four days into their
marriage which came to a sudden halt after she gave birth to their son, which
absolutely suggests, as Maddox wants (Yeats's
Ghosts), that the automatic writing was a ruse on her part to engage the
affections of her husband. Yeats longed for but never had any spiritual gifts. Surely a disappointment to the paranormal he used every part of this paradigm
to provoke meaning in his life, he was that deeply insecure. His experience of
rude swords conditioned by all manner of astrology, automatic writing,
theosophy, omens, signs and mystical symbols, convinced him to seek images of
the anima mundi, the world soul as some sort of pool or sea of accumulated
imaginations and wisdom that would connect him to "the
source." This anima is better developed by Jung of course in his
exposition of these devils of shimmering delight as compellingly beautiful as the
blue cloak around Ishtar. So inasmuch as "the academic world is less
embarrassed by the paranormal than it used to be," (Maddox, xii) these
parasols are now commonly accepted doctrines of the working of the muse. The
anima of Jung devils created by the fallen in literature is the grail of its
beauty, producing on the one hand in Yeats the greatness of the Death of Cuchulain but on the
other the follies of rejuvenation, fascism, eugenics and senescent affairs that
have become all the elite transhuman rage. If you ape the immortal you will drink young blood, eat monotonic gold and get a dozen heart transplants.
Bloom's love of Kabbalah triangulates the probable comparison of Merrill's thefts and acquisitions with Yeats and his gematria. On his own Bloom says "six is the perfect number" for numbering the days of creation, which is just as far off for omitting the seventh day of creation as his attributing at the end of the previous chapter that Shelley "had urged Yeats...to cast out remorse" (Anatomy, 193), which exaggerates the possibility, considering Shelley's death. Not in the flesh, Bloom communicates with the dead in his own self-conducted séance, holding hands with Yeats. Casting out remorse is the darkness Bloom would evoke upon the urchins of Shelley, Nietzsche and includes Yeats, calling them Satan's descendants (Ruin the Sacred Truths, 110). Nephilim have been running the critical departments at these schools for some time. Somewhere Mr. Bloom confesses with a little regret that he is not a poet, but he is a word smith. Bloom says "I summoned metalepsis," I rewrought Kenosis, I called apophrades" (Anatomy of Influence 194). He is proud of himself, and also like some Prospero or Faustus, shows the deeper nature of his possession. To call a literary critic possessed might be the best compliment he ever gets, but higher critics have been possessed before, Gunkel thought Jacob was a Titan.
Nephilim, Torah
Considerations of Nephilim join with the Days of Noah as the principle motive of the Flood, that as in the days of Noah so also shall the coming of the son of man be, which of course is Messiah speaking, and refers to the Revelation. Such linkage of Genesis to Revelation is deeply opposed by the force of destruction itself, which does not want exposure. Nonetheless the statement stands of the Days of Noah and the Son of Man, thought to be for our time. So what correspondences exist between the two?
1) a dramatic increase in population: Gen 6.1 occurred when men began to multiply on the face of the earth. This compares with the tripling of the world population since 1927. That fact is utterly astonishing and absolutely true.
2) beings of mixed birth, mutations, hybrids were commonplace then. This compared with so much genetic mutation and repurposing in everything from breakfast foods to pigs growing human organs for transplant today, but this has further to go, much further so as to be a separate subject, that is, The Book of Enoch compared with transhumanism.
It is easy to see how classicists chafe at the countless supernaturalisms of Old Testament texts, Noah saved from the flood, Abraham rescued when Nimrod cast him into the furnace, the Red Sea parted during the exodus from Egypt (Me'am Lo'ez, 16). We revisit this supernaturalism throughout transhuman science, one almost wrote transhuman sacrifice, implying that the breaking of their idols would be as appalling to them as Abraham was to Nimrod. This science has as its end the making of its own idol, that being immortality. But we would also revisit Nimrod too, who while a shadowy figure, is linked to Gilgamesh as ruler of the city of Uruk, an opponent of God, a Hunter in the Face of God, who unbelievably had his remains dug up by the American quartermaster corp, or perhaps it is better to say his remains were stolen from the French-German archeologists because of some heretofore unsuspected information the military would weaponize. How would the classicists, the Form theorists, handle that kind of redaction by the supernaturalist government Elohists who seek to revive, either literally resurrect or use the scrolls among the grave remains toward what to the 19th century would be impossible supernatural ends?
It is pretty easy to exhaust the data on the irreality of the nephilim in a short time, unlike the alleged conspiracy of academic science, corporation and government to master that technology. Whatever antediluvian civilization was, to consider the nephilim connected to the sons of God there and to the transhuman movement now would not be mentioned by the transhumans. Especially since, if it is party, it would not be known as such. If not, then what? An urging, a compulsion, a preoccupation binding heart, mind and deed. Perhaps more than the sound of it, these in the ideal world would be opposed by the nephilim. Taking only the supernatural sense of the interpretation these are the fallen, the giants and chimeras.
Notes
Nimrod a hunter "in opposition to the Lord"; ruled Uruk, city of Gilgamesh: Wikipedia
Genesis says that the "beginning of his kingdom" (reshit memelketo) was the towns of "Babel, Uruk, Akkad and Calneh in the land of Shinar" (Mesopotamia) — understood variously to imply that he either founded these cities, ruled over them, or both. See Raleigh History of the World x, on this
The people before the flood were"called by seven names: Eymim, Refa'im, Gibborim, Zamsumim, Anakim, Ivvim, and Nefilim (Lo'ez 23)
The neutral stance of Wikipedia was never more welcome:
"Nephilim" (נְפִילִים) probably derives from the Hebrew root npl (נָפַל), "to fall" which also includes "to cause to fall" and "to kill, to ruin". The Brown-Driver-Briggs Lexicon gives the meaning as "giants"[1] Robert Baker Girdlestone[2] argued the word comes from the Hiphil causative stem. Adam Clarke took it as passive, "fallen", "apostates". Ronald Hendel states that it is a passive form "ones who have fallen", equivalent grammatically to paqid "one who is appointed" (i.e. overseer), asir, "one who is bound", (i.e. prisoner) etc.[3]
[4]Genesis 6:4 implies that the Nephilim have inhabited the earth in at least two different time periods—in antediluvian times "and afterward." If the Nephilim were supernatural beings themselves, or at least the progeny of supernatural beings, it is possible that the "giants of Canaan" in Book of Numbers 13:33 were the direct descendants of the antediluvian Nephilim, or were fathered by the same supernatural mutants.
The Book of Enoch says the most, that when these beings were so tempted, they bound themselves by mutual imprecations not to abandon their plan. The plan? One that all men can appreciate--woman! To know a woman.
Wikepedia: According to these texts, the fallen angels who begat the Nephilim were cast into Tartarus (Greek Enoch 20:2),[27] a place of 'total darkness'. However, Jubilees also states that God granted ten percent of the disembodied spirits of the Nephilim to remain after the flood, as demons, to try to lead the human race astray (through idolatry, the occult, etc.) until the final Judgment.
However the rabbis with church fathers hold the view that the sons of God are merely the children of Seth who went astray with women of surrounding nations.
Wikepedia: In the Hebrew Bible, there are a number of other words that, like "Nephilim", are sometimes translated as "giants":
http://www.nephilim.nl/: The whole site is worth a read.
Nephilim is translated "giants" in the Authorized King James Version, but "giants" is in no way a complete description.
Commentators like Lange trace the word "Nephilim" to the root "Niphal" meaning "distinguished ones." This corresponds perfectly with the "men of renown" at the end of Genesis 6:4, nevertheless it is not a generally accepted translation.
Others have sought the root of the word in the Hebrew consonants "npl" as found in Psalm 58:8. Here it means "miscarriage." Accepting this theory, the Nephilim would be those superhuman beings that resulted from miscarriages. Genesis Rabbah (26:7) seems to confirm this translation when it states:
Nephilim denotes that they hurled the world down, themselves fell (naflu) from the world, and filled the world with abortions (nephilim) through their immorality. (1)
Most scholars, however, reject both these interpretations and trace the word "Nephilim" to the Hebrew root "Naphal" meaning "to fall." The Nephilim are the "fallen ones." A direct reference to the fallen angels who sired them. Some writers such as Ben Adam believe the word "Nephilim" refers to the fallen angels themselves and not to their offspring.
Because of some uncertainty in the translation of the Hebrew word, more and more Bible versions are now leaving the original word untranslated. Thus the New International Version renders the passage: "The Nephilim were on the earth in those days..." (Genesis 6:4). This also does justice to the fact that the definite article precedes the word in the original. "The Nephilim were on the earth..." The same definite article is also found in the other biblical passage where the word "Nephilim" occurs, namely, Numbers 13:33. "We saw the Nephilim there..."
" Rav Kook noted that the great Nephilim who brought about the world's moral collapse were "anshei shem." Usually translated as 'men of renown,' this phrase literally means 'men of names,' or 'men of words.' They were great leaders, skilled in the arts of persuasion and rhetoric. But their talents were an empty shell, devoid of inner content. On the contrary, they used their superficial eloquence for unscrupulous purposes."
Not only in size but in knowledge, but whether all ancient artifacts of civilization and its sudden wax and wane are caused by Nephilim is not germane here.
"The Nephilim also were giants in knowledge. According to the Book of Enoch, God was incensed against the fallen angels partly because they disclosed certain classified information to humans. The ancient world associated demons with special esoteric knowledge and with superior intelligence. The word "demon" in Greek (daimon) comes from the root meaning "knowledge" or "intelligence." The Scriptures also testify to the fact that demons have access to knowledge and information denied to ordinary mortals." It might follow from this that the Nephilim founded the mystery schools, all theosophy, and every secret knowledge.
Question:
Were there any female Nephilim?
None produced in the hybrid line of human and angelic mating. Only sons. The Nephilim sons were like mutant births of the animal kingdom that cannot reproduce. Had that restriction not been in place, then there would have probably been Nephilim and angelic breeding going on and the production of an even more fierce hybrid than already existed. here

" Tertullian and some of the other Church Fathers considered it of such import that they included it as part of the sacred canon of Scripture. Jude 14 is a direct quote from Enoch 1:9, 5:4, and 27:2. There is also in the Book of Enoch a doctrine that one finds nowhere else. Other authors tell us that each nation has its sar or parton, and that of Israel was Michael, or sometimes God Himself. However, in the Book of Enoch we are told that,"

Torah and the Mystery Itself
The difference in narrative between the Hebrews and the Greeks is a "background narrative" in the Hebrew that leaves whole worlds unexplained. Events implicit in these accounts are spelled out in the Greek narrative with detail, color of eyes, hair, the whole scene. (Eric Auerbach, Odysseus' Scar). There may be a political purpose behind opposing the Hebrew and Greek as an analogy between "Judeo-Christian tradition and the Aryan Nazism." The Wikipedia entry for Odysseus' Scar suspects Auerbach is a "German-Jewish philologist." There are notable examples of Auerbach's premise of background narrative in Kierkegaard's account of the sacrifice of Isaac, Fear and Trembling. These spell out a range of issues submerged in the text. A lot of people know this best in the most powerful words Bob Dylan ever wrote:
Kierkegaard sees in the Abraham/Isaac sacrifice grand philosophic principles such as the famous Teleological Suspension of the Ethical, but what then do the tales about Hagar, Laban and Balaam's donkey signify? The rabbis declare that "Moses wrote the Torah with very precious ink. Nothing is superfluous, not even the smallest letter." As angels disguise their radiance in human form when on earth, the Torah's secrets and mysteries are disguised in the form of stories, which had they remained "in true spiritual form the human intellect could never comprehend. (20) " The stories, while true in themselves, serve as garments that clothe deeper mysteries...neither are they chronological, the true order of the Torah is therefore concealed from all but God Himself" (Yalket Me'am Lo'ez, The Torah Anthology [1720] I, 17f, 20, 21). More emphasis on the literal occurs in that "if there is even the slightest error in the writing of a Torah scroll, it is invalid and cannot be used" (19).
Admittedly the Old Testament Torah is believed many ways but always with an emphasis on the letter, on the literal so that "the rules and laws of the Torah are its body. The histories and stories in the Torah are the garments that clothe its mysteries. The soul of the Torah though consists of the mysteries themselves." You would like to know these mysteries, but the revelation is in words and even when they are directly apprehended must still be expressed. How to directly apprehend mystery, truth is a study itself. We however declare that any intervention between the mystery and the soul by drugs, shaman, priest, or otherwise, is deception itself. The mystery must be seen naked. How to get there is of course the quest of the world's seekers, to boost the ego let it be said, but the process is other than this; it has much to do with boring a hole in the lob of the ear and pinning it to the door. This means it has everything to do with hearing, hearing the sound thereof, as one born of the spirit, or as one says in another place, he wakens me morning by morning, he wakens my ear to listen as one being taught. That is why the Psalm says, further, I have more insight than all my teachers. You can no more transfer this by words then you can know life without living. You can read about putting on the ephod, the urim and thummin, yes and no, but to know the voice is itself itself. No more than a bride can know the mind her husband by giving herself to another man before she marries can anyone know the mystery in itself by taking any drug. Do you want to name them? Go ahead, the drugs are known but are not a way to know. They will have you comparing your husband to an idol when you want to be wholly enveloped, I mean immersed in him. They will have you criticizing him for his acts, for he does not act like an idol, when in fact he is the One, the only one to hear.
But the clothing of Torah may also be implicit, as it is in the non-biblical account of Nimrod, the founder of Babylon, Genesis 10, throwing Abraham into the fiery furnace. All the text says is "When Terah had lived seventy years, he begot Abraham, Nahor and Haran... Haran died in the presence of Terah his father, in his native land, in Ur Kasdim" (Genesis 11:26-29). The Midrash however is an oral Torah, not written down, at least until late. It says that Abraham broke the idols of his father's house and that Nimrod, who was threatened by Abraham's ideas of a supreme God, threw him in the furnace.
Ask the Rabbi explains: Abraham's brother Haran was also there and he witnessed Abram being thrown into the furnace. Knowing that Nimrod could turn on him too and ask him whose side he was on, either Nimrod's or Abraham's, Haran said to himself that if a miracle was wrought for Abraham, he would say that he was on Abraham's side. However, if Abram died, Haran would say that he supported Nimrod. Immediately after making this decision, Abraham walked out of the fiery furnace untouched! Nimrod turned to Haran and yelled, "Whose side are you on?" Haran responded "Abram's!"
Nimrod angrily picked up Haran and cast him too in the fiery pit. However, God did not create the miracle for Haran as He had done for Abraham, because Haran was only trying to save his skin. Abraham, on the other hand, was willing to die to prove his point that he believed in God. Therefore, God wrought a miracle for Abraham, but not for Haran. And so Haran died in the "presence of his father."
Why does scripture note that this instance took place in "Ur Kasdim?" Although these words have very little meaning in English, in Hebrew, the world "Ur" actually means "fire." Hence, the name of the city properly understood was "fire of Kasdim" which refers to the fiery pit that Abraham was thrown into, but saved from (Rashi - Genesis 11:28).
God commanded Moses that the written Torah should not be recited from memory,
and that the Oral Torah should not be written down." (2) Yalket Me'am

Angel Passages cut from Fall
A nephilim child of the
modern might take the aura of an "other worldly being," a poet
"supernaturally brilliant and detached," as the description of poet
James Merrill is given. Remember he is one of many. The son of the brokerage house of
Merrill Lynch,s celebrated
by his friend Allison Lurie and as the American Mozart by the famous neph critic Harold Bloom. Winner of every
literary prize from the Pulitzer to the National Book Award, these awards were based
largely upon the decades Merrill spent translating from a Ouija board the
orders and ministrations
of an alleged superior order of spirits. He seems to think he's talking to a
stranger on the telephone. Instead of just reading Genesis 5 and 6, Robert Shaw says, the "volume was forced on the
poet by these spectral beings...they pre-empted the board to dictate messages
that the poet was instructed to communicate to the world, "SOULS OF A FORM
I NEVER SAW ON EARTH/ SOULS FROM B4 THE FLOOD... MEN B4 MANKIND" (NYTimes, Books, 1/03/04). These perfect
descriptions of nephilim do not much mask the brass era of the pagan, like
second century Justin Martyr said, they were "devils disguised as
god" spying on the manuscripts of Isaiah and Jeremiah, eavesdropping on
the prophets' ecstasies, but specifically with Merrill's writing, spectral lessons, gnomic lines doubling back upon
themselves,
dictating the histories and sciences of Atlantis, Stonehenge, black holes,
Bermuda Triangle, sun worship of Akhnaton. It is not amiss to cite the ancient Book of Enoch where these beings also
presumed to give instruction. As said, Enoch too says the fallen assume "many
different forms in defiling mankind and shall lead hem astray into sacrificing
to demons as gods" (I.19).
Bloom's love of Kabbalah triangulates the probable comparison of Merrill's thefts and acquisitions with Yeats and his gematria. On his own Bloom says "six is the perfect number" for numbering the days of creation, which is just as far off for omitting the seventh day of creation as his attributing at the end of the previous chapter that Shelley "had urged Yeats...to cast out remorse" (Anatomy, 193), which exaggerates the possibility, considering Shelley's death. Not in the flesh, Bloom communicates with the dead in his own self-conducted séance, holding hands with Yeats. Casting out remorse is the darkness Bloom would evoke upon the urchins of Shelley, Nietzsche and includes Yeats, calling them Satan's descendants (Ruin the Sacred Truths, 110). Nephilim have been running the critical departments at these schools for some time. Somewhere Mr. Bloom confesses with a little regret that he is not a poet, but he is a word smith. Bloom says "I summoned metalepsis," I rewrought Kenosis, I called apophrades" (Anatomy of Influence 194). He is proud of himself, and also like some Prospero or Faustus, shows the deeper nature of his possession. To call a literary critic possessed might be the best compliment he ever gets, but higher critics have been possessed before, Gunkel thought Jacob was a Titan.
Nephilim, Torah
Considerations of Nephilim join with the Days of Noah as the principle motive of the Flood, that as in the days of Noah so also shall the coming of the son of man be, which of course is Messiah speaking, and refers to the Revelation. Such linkage of Genesis to Revelation is deeply opposed by the force of destruction itself, which does not want exposure. Nonetheless the statement stands of the Days of Noah and the Son of Man, thought to be for our time. So what correspondences exist between the two?
1) a dramatic increase in population: Gen 6.1 occurred when men began to multiply on the face of the earth. This compares with the tripling of the world population since 1927. That fact is utterly astonishing and absolutely true.
2) beings of mixed birth, mutations, hybrids were commonplace then. This compared with so much genetic mutation and repurposing in everything from breakfast foods to pigs growing human organs for transplant today, but this has further to go, much further so as to be a separate subject, that is, The Book of Enoch compared with transhumanism.
It is easy to see how classicists chafe at the countless supernaturalisms of Old Testament texts, Noah saved from the flood, Abraham rescued when Nimrod cast him into the furnace, the Red Sea parted during the exodus from Egypt (Me'am Lo'ez, 16). We revisit this supernaturalism throughout transhuman science, one almost wrote transhuman sacrifice, implying that the breaking of their idols would be as appalling to them as Abraham was to Nimrod. This science has as its end the making of its own idol, that being immortality. But we would also revisit Nimrod too, who while a shadowy figure, is linked to Gilgamesh as ruler of the city of Uruk, an opponent of God, a Hunter in the Face of God, who unbelievably had his remains dug up by the American quartermaster corp, or perhaps it is better to say his remains were stolen from the French-German archeologists because of some heretofore unsuspected information the military would weaponize. How would the classicists, the Form theorists, handle that kind of redaction by the supernaturalist government Elohists who seek to revive, either literally resurrect or use the scrolls among the grave remains toward what to the 19th century would be impossible supernatural ends?
It is pretty easy to exhaust the data on the irreality of the nephilim in a short time, unlike the alleged conspiracy of academic science, corporation and government to master that technology. Whatever antediluvian civilization was, to consider the nephilim connected to the sons of God there and to the transhuman movement now would not be mentioned by the transhumans. Especially since, if it is party, it would not be known as such. If not, then what? An urging, a compulsion, a preoccupation binding heart, mind and deed. Perhaps more than the sound of it, these in the ideal world would be opposed by the nephilim. Taking only the supernatural sense of the interpretation these are the fallen, the giants and chimeras.
Notes
Nimrod a hunter "in opposition to the Lord"; ruled Uruk, city of Gilgamesh: Wikipedia
Genesis says that the "beginning of his kingdom" (reshit memelketo) was the towns of "Babel, Uruk, Akkad and Calneh in the land of Shinar" (Mesopotamia) — understood variously to imply that he either founded these cities, ruled over them, or both. See Raleigh History of the World x, on this
The people before the flood were"called by seven names: Eymim, Refa'im, Gibborim, Zamsumim, Anakim, Ivvim, and Nefilim (Lo'ez 23)
The neutral stance of Wikipedia was never more welcome:
"Nephilim" (נְפִילִים) probably derives from the Hebrew root npl (נָפַל), "to fall" which also includes "to cause to fall" and "to kill, to ruin". The Brown-Driver-Briggs Lexicon gives the meaning as "giants"[1] Robert Baker Girdlestone[2] argued the word comes from the Hiphil causative stem. Adam Clarke took it as passive, "fallen", "apostates". Ronald Hendel states that it is a passive form "ones who have fallen", equivalent grammatically to paqid "one who is appointed" (i.e. overseer), asir, "one who is bound", (i.e. prisoner) etc.[3]
[4]Genesis 6:4 implies that the Nephilim have inhabited the earth in at least two different time periods—in antediluvian times "and afterward." If the Nephilim were supernatural beings themselves, or at least the progeny of supernatural beings, it is possible that the "giants of Canaan" in Book of Numbers 13:33 were the direct descendants of the antediluvian Nephilim, or were fathered by the same supernatural mutants.
The Book of Enoch says the most, that when these beings were so tempted, they bound themselves by mutual imprecations not to abandon their plan. The plan? One that all men can appreciate--woman! To know a woman.

God said to Abraham, "Kill me a son"...
Well Abe says, "Where do you want this killin' done?"
God says, "Out on Highway 61."
"God
tested him and said, take Isaac, your only son, whom you love, and go
to the land of Moriah and offer him as a burnt offering on the
mountain that I shall show you" (Genesis 22.2).Kierkegaard sees in the Abraham/Isaac sacrifice grand philosophic principles such as the famous Teleological Suspension of the Ethical, but what then do the tales about Hagar, Laban and Balaam's donkey signify? The rabbis declare that "Moses wrote the Torah with very precious ink. Nothing is superfluous, not even the smallest letter."

Nahor and Haran... Haran died in the presence of Terah his father, in
his native land, in Ur Kasdim" (Genesis 11:26-29) Ask the Rabbi.
Abraham was still a young child when he realized that idol worship was
nothing but foolishness. To make his point, one day, when Abraham was
asked to watch the store, he took a hammer and smashed all the idols -
except for the largest. His father came home aghast. "What happened?!"
he shouted. "It was amazing, Dad," replied Abraham. "The idols all got
into a fight and the biggest idol won!" Nimrod, as the most powerful world leader of the time, was the one most threatened by Abraham's ideas of a supreme God. So Nimrod threw Abraham into a fiery furnace, saying "Let's see your God save you now." Abraham emerged unscathed.
