Nephilim (A Flash of Light)

So strong and abrupt an ancient race
With lusts and sins they raided this place
These men of OLE, few say did see
The sons of angels, no choice to be
Who were these men? A flash of light!
These giants of men who hastened man's plight
A mutant race, a mule of men
A hybrid race, born of sin
Who were these souls of flesh and skin?
A flash of light! The Nephilim.

Bingo! Deneen. The Nephilim were the hybrid offspring of bad, materialized angels and women. They were destroyed during the flood...as you know.

this nephilim is from satan and the angels that defied Jehovah and the bad angels wanted to be with the women who were beautiful and therefore they produced the nephilim, they grew to be giants and they were very mean, ring of truth, congrats on being featured, take care D-nyce
