Ep. 5 - The Nephilim, Gilgamesh, & Other Giant Tales

What we read in scripture about the Nephilim is backed by many ancient texts and legends including 1 Enoch, found among the dead sea scrolls and quoted by biblical authors, the Epic of Gilgamesh, and the legends of the giants in Babylonian culture. Jeff & Shel examine these stories against scripture to gain a deeper understanding of what happened in Genesis 6, the conquests of Joshua, the transfiguration event, and more.
