[QUOTE="WayneLigon, post: 658233, member: 3649"] The Nephilim are mentioned, depending on the version of bible you look at ([URL=http://bible.gospelcom.net/]Bible Gateway[/URL] has the NIV at least refering to 'giants' as 'Nephelim' - Genesis 6:3-5 - as well as the implication, since they are mentioned afterwards as well, that the Nephelim somehow survived the Flood apart from Noah.) Numbers 13: 31 But the men who had gone up with him said, "We can't attack those people; they are stronger than we are." 32 And they spread among the Israelites a bad report about the land they had explored. They said, "The land we explored devours those living in it. All the people we saw there are of great size. 33 We saw the Nephilim there (the descendants of Anak come from the Nephilim). We seemed like grasshoppers in our own eyes, and we looked the same to them."
