What if one of the most controversial passages in the Bible has been misunderstood—not for decades, but for centuries?
Genesis 6 is often reduced to a safe moral lesson about bad relationships. But the language of the text, the ancient world behind it, and the earliest interpretations tell a very different story—one involving divine boundary violations, primeval giants, and a corruption so severe it pushed creation toward judgment. This isn’t fringe speculation. It’s what the text actually says when we stop filtering it through later assumptions.
On February 6th, I’m publishing a long-form article that walks carefully through Genesis 6, the Nephilim, the “sons of God,” and why the popular Sethite explanation didn’t even exist until centuries after the Bible was written. No hype. No mythology. Just Scripture, ancient language, and historical context laid side by side.
If you’ve ever felt Genesis 6 was either confusing, avoided, or oversimplified—this article is for you.
