The Nephilim are mysterious figures mentioned in the Bible, specifically in the book of Genesis. They are described as the offspring of the "sons of God" and the "daughters of men." This has led to various interpretations about their nature, with some viewing them as giants or fallen angels, while others see them as a symbol of human corruption. The term "Nephilim" is often translated as "giants" in some versions of the Bible. Their existence raises questions about the interactions between the divine and human realms. The Nephilim are also referenced in other ancient texts, contributing to their enigmatic status in religious and historical discussions.
