Genesis 6:1 - 6:8

Genesis
GenesisSteve Gregg

In Genesis 6:1-8, there is a debate over whether the "sons of God" mentioned are angels or godly men. Some suggest that angels married humans and gave birth to giants, while others view the "sons of God" as a godly community of humans. The passage highlights the breakdown of godly families and leadership, leading to the judgment of God upon humanity except for Noah and his family. Overall, the passage emphasizes the importance of obedience and avoiding compromise with ungodliness.
