Going to be a long post. Alot of info, so bear with me: 1rd
AngelicPride wrote:Not sure how you can have angel/nephilim blood, when all the Nephilim were wiped out in the flood of Genesis (only Noah's family survived the flood). Nephilim spirits are also tethered to the abyss by the Archangel Raphael, so they cannot leave the Abyss (Hell/Underworld). Nephilim are described as being man-eaters, and God wouldn't want those sorts of creatures (that aren't supposed to exist) roaming around!
Genesis 6:4 (Original KJV):
There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that,
when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and
they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which
were of old, men of renown.
Note: It says in those days, AND AFTER that. Possibly meaning both before and after the flood. It has been theorized that the biblical flood did happen, but did not cover the world, it was localized. The other thing to point out is the similarities between the the deluge in the bible and in Sumerian myth.
The earliest record of the Sumerian creation myth, called The Eridu Genesis by Thorkild Jacobsen, is found on a single fragmentary tablet excavated in Nippur. It is written in the Sumerian language and dated to around 1600 BC.
Where the tablet picks up, the gods An, Enlil, Enki and Ninhursanga create the black-headed people and create comfortable conditions for the animals to live and procreate. Then kingship descends from heaven and the first cities are founded: Eridu, Bad-tibira, Larak, Sippar, and Shuruppak.
After a missing section in the tablet, we learn that the gods have decided not to save mankind from an impending flood. Zi-ud-sura, the king and gudug priest, learns of this. In the later Akkadian version, Ea, or Enki in Sumerian, the god of the waters, warns the hero (Atra-hasis in this case) and gives him instructions for the ark. This is missing in the Sumerian fragment, but a mention of Enki taking counsel with himself suggests that this is Enki's role in the Sumerian version as well.
When the tablet resumes it is describing the flood. A terrible storm rocks the huge boat for seven days and seven nights, then Utu (the Sun god) appears and Zi-ud-sura creates an opening in the boat, prostrates himself, and sacrifices oxen and sheep.
After another break the text resumes: the flood is apparently over, the animals disembark and Zi-ud-sura prostrates himself before An (sky-god) and Enlil (chief of the gods), who give him eternal life and take him to dwell in Dilmun for "preserving the animals and the seed of mankind". The remainder of the poem is lost.
Two flood myths with many similarities to the Sumerian story are the Utnapishtim episode in the Epic of Gilgamesh and the Genesis flood narrative found in the Bible.
Nephilim throughout the world:

Numbers 13:33
"And there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of Anak, who come of the Nephilim: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight."
This is AFTER the flood. So there were still Nephilim alive after the flood.
Even Goliath was said to be descended from a Nephilim bloodline.
There is so much of human history that has been covered up, so we may never know, but I think by even basing our theories off of biblical sources, we can find evidence of Nephilim before AND after the biblical flood.
