2419 Nephilim ENT_ISR_NEPHILIM child_of Watchers ENT_ISR_WATCHERS high The Nephilim are the direct offspring of the Watchers (Bene Elohim) and human women in both Genesis 6:1-4 and the Enochic elaboration (1 Enoch 6-7). In 1 Enoch 7:2-3: "And they became pregnant, and they bore great giants, whose height was three thousand ells... they consumed all the acquisitions of men." The child_of relationship captures the genealogical derivation of the Nephilim from the Watchers collective.

2420 Nephilim ENT_ISR_NEPHILIM child_of Bene Elohim ENT_ISR_BENE_ELOHIM high Genesis 6:1-4 is the foundational text: "the sons of God (bene ha-elohim) came in to the daughters of humans, who bore children to them." The "sons of God" (Bene Elohim) are the divine beings who father the Nephilim; the Enochic tradition identifies these Bene Elohim with the Watchers (angelic beings who descended from heaven). This relationship preserves the Genesis 6 genealogy in the graph alongside the Enochic elaboration (child_of ENT_ISR_WATCHERS). 1 Enoch SRC_1_ENOCH reviewed Second Temple Period PER_ISR_SECOND_TEMPLE
2421 Nephilim ENT_ISR_NEPHILIM opposes Yahweh ENT_ISR_YAHWEH high The Nephilim's violence, corruption, and consumption of humanity (1 Enoch 7:3-5: they eat birds, beasts, reptiles, fish, and finally human flesh and drink blood) is explicitly the cause of God's (Yahweh's) decision to flood the earth: "And then Michael, Uriel, Raphael, and Gabriel looked down from the sanctuary of heaven and saw much blood being shed upon the earth, and all lawlessness being wrought upon the earth... they said to the Lord of the ages: Lord of lords, God of gods, King of kings — and God of the ages — the throne of your glory endures through all the generations of the world, and your name is holy and great and blessed through all the ages of the world... You see what Azazel has done, how he has taught all iniquity on earth and revealed the eternal secrets which were preserved in heaven." (1 Enoch 9:1-6). The Flood is the divine response to the Nephilim's corruption. Confidence high: the causal link between Nephilim violence and divine judgment (Flood) is explicit in both Genesis 6 and 1 Enoch. 1 Enoch SRC_1_ENOCH reviewed Second Temple Period PER_ISR_SECOND_TEMPLE
