Нефилим
The Nephilim were a race of giants mentioned in the context of the sons of God marrying human women before the flood and later encountered by the Israelite spies in Canaan.
The Nephilim were a mysterious group described as the offspring of 'the sons of God' and 'the daughters of men' in the antediluvian period, noted as 'mighty men of old, men of renown' (Genesis 6:4). The same term reappears in the spies' report from Canaan, where the descendants of Anak are identified as Nephilim, making the Israelites feel 'like grasshoppers' by comparison (Numbers 13:33). The precise identity of the Nephilim—whether fallen angels, Sethite-Cainite intermarriages, or human warlords—has been debated across Jewish, Christian, and academic scholarship for millennia, and no consensus has been reached.
