10 Incredible Ancient Texts Quotes that Prove the Nephilim Were Real
According to ancient texts, in the distant past, beings referred to as Nephilim walked on Earth. This enigmatic species was not identical to humans but was also not that different. They were a hybrid species, descendants from the Fallen Angels, a product of illicit relations between fallen angels and human women before the flood and Noah’s Ark.
But who were these mystery beings and did they exist on Earth just as ancient texts suggest? In the Hebrew Bible, the word ‘Nephilim’ occurs on two occasions, both times in the Torah, the first one being in Genesis 6:1-4, just before the story of Noah’s ark, and the second is Numbers 13:32–33 when spies sent to Canaan reported seeing ‘fearsome giants’.
Myth or reality? Here we bring you ten quotes from ancient texts which ultimately prove the Nephilim walked on Earth in the distant past.

And there we saw the Nephilim (the sons of Anak, who come from the Nephilim), and we seemed to ourselves like grasshoppers, and so we seemed to them.”
