We're continuing our summer road trip through the Faculty Podcast archives, and have encountered one of our favorite episodes. This week, we're asking, "who were the Nephilim?" Genesis 6 tells us that these creatures are somehow associated with the "sons of God" marrying the "daughters of men." Is this a reference to angelic beings? Or is there a more ordinary explanation for what's going on? What does this tell us about the historicity of Genesis as a whole? If you'd like to continue conversations like these in the classroom, why not register for a class ? Registration for the 2026 fall semester are now open.
