Yes, God, God. God don't never

So welcome to broadcast episode 71 good to have you here. Thank you for

listening so I want to begin by talking, it occurred to me that I ought to spend a little time on some

off the beaten track opinions or maybe I should share some unpopular opinions or

share some things that don't are not greeted with universal acclaim.

And one of them, and this comes up from time to time

in different ways, in different settings, and so on.

But one of the controverted issues among exigets is what to do with the sons of God marrying the

daughters of men in Genesis chapter six.

Whatever it was, it was a big deal because apparently it was one of the factors that led to the flood. I like to say it precipitated the flood.

You know what I... ha ha. like to say it precipitated the flood.

Ha ha.

So since the time of the reformation,

it has grown increasingly customary for Christians to say that the sons of God were basically

the descendants of the line of Seth and the daughters of men were descended from Cain, and that the sin involved was the intermarriage

of the godly line, the godly seed of Seth with the ungodly line of Kane.

And the, I, I have a number of difficulties with this

and I take the older view that the sons of God, Bené Alohim, are celestial beings

of some sort and they intermarry with human women.

And that seems a little bit outlandish to modern years and so obviously the intermarriage between Seth and the line of Seth

and the line of Kane at least is not embarrassing that way.

So I thought I would mention just a few reasons why I take the line I do and here it goes.
