Genesis 6-2: Exploring and Decoding the Identity of the "Sons of God"

Welcome to the 'Bible Difficulties and Answers' podcast with your host, Lance Smith. The elusive topic of the identity of the "sons of God" mentioned in Genesis 6:2 is today's intriguing subject. This verse has been a curiosity to biblical scholars for hundreds of years and continues to pique our interest. We'll consider the questions: were the "sons of God" fallen angels, also interpreted as earth dwelling demons, or were they humans derived from the line of Seth? We'll probe deeply into differing perspectives to seek answers while striving to remain open-minded, without letting uncertainty cloud our understanding of the Bible.

Join us as we present competent scholars' diverse interpretations, uncovering this biblical puzzle's possible solutions. Some scholars believe the "sons of God" were great men of renown or the godly line of Seth, while others suggest they were angels inhabiting human bodies. We'll also explore the idea of the "sons of God" representing a specific category of earthly males. 

This episode aims not only to investigate the identity of the "sons of God" closely but also to highlight that Genesis 6:2 shouldn't be seen as the exclusive guidepost for our theological framework. Whether the "sons of God" are considered fallen angels or human men, their narrative remains woven into the broader tapestry of the Bible, yielding seeds of corruption and divine interventions. Stay tuned as we continue decoding this captivating narrative over the next six episodes.
