Why did the sons of God marry the daughters of men?
Because they saw that the daughters of men were beautiful. (Genesis 6:2)
How did God react when His sons took wives from the daughters of men?
He declared that His spirit would not strive with man forever and that the days of man would be one hundred and twenty years. (Genesis 6:3)
When God said that the days of man would be one hundred and twenty years, what did He mean?
Firstly, he meant that the number of years that every man would live in his entire lifetime would not exceed one hundred and twenty years.
Secondly, He meant that He would destroy man after one hundred and twenty years (by the Great Flood).
Brainstorm on the two answers.
Which beings were present on the earth in the days when the sons of God came to the earth and married the daughters of men?
Giants (Genesis 6:4)
According to Genesis 6:4, do you think that giants were born from the union between the sons of God and the daughters of men, or did they come from elsewhere?
When you read the scripture, it says that there were giants on the earth in those days and afterwards? The question is, which daysis Moses (the author of Genesis) referring to? The answer is the same scripture, ‘the days when the sons of God came and married the daughters of men! ’This may mean that the giants were independent actors and had nothing to do with the relationship between the sons of God and the daughters of men! What do you think?
Who are the mighty men of old that Genesis 6:4 refers to?
