Nephilim and Giants - Paperback

by A. Nyland (Author)

What were the Nephilim? The Nephilim, a word meaning Giants, were the progeny of the Watchers and human women. Greek mythology also speaks of Giants. The Nephilim were also connected with the Anakin and Rephaim. The latter were a mysterious group also known as Underworld dwellers. Most people do not know this, as the word Rephaim is translated in many English Bible versions as "the dead." Zecharia Sitchin, in a confusion of Hebrew and Aramaic, alleged that the Nephilim were "fallen ones" and confused them with their fathers, the Watchers. Ancient languages scholar Dr. A. Nyland sifts through the evidence to tell us what we do and don't know about these mysterious ancient beings.

Author Biography

Dr. A. Nyland spent her time on Faculty at the University of New England, Australia, teaching ancient grammar, conducting a lengthy replication of a Bronze Age horse training text, and drinking espresso. She is the best selling translator of such books as The Complete Books of Enoch and author of What Were the Watchers? as well as Nephilim and Giants. The information based on her books is not based on her own opinions, but is presented with a view to getting actual facts out there. This is harder and harder in this day and age with misinformation spreading like wildfire on the net, driven by all the books by authors who know no ancient languages, and get their information from English translations rather than the original texts. It is futile to research ancient texts in English translation.
