The Nephilim Were on the Earth in Those Days
6: 1-8
The first age of human history came to its climax and conclusion in the days of Noah. The terminal disease of sin, which began so innocently when Eve was tempted to doubt God’s word, then began to grow in the life of Cain, came to completion in the godless civilization that could only be purged by the Flood. The characteristics of those awful and tragic days, as strange as they may seem to us today, are to be repeated in the last days of this present age. Thus, it is vitally important that we understand what happened in the last days of Noah. The human race had become wicked beyond all belief and death would be their punishment.
Two days before Messiah’s crucifixion, His talmidim asked Him, “What will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age” (Mattityahu 24:3)? There would be a number of signs that would culminate in this warning from Yeshua: As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the son of Man. For in the days before the Flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; and they knew nothing about what would happen until the Flood came and took them away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man (Matthew 24:37-39). Therefore, this story not only confirms the account of the Flood, but also cautions us to be aware of how people lived in the days before the Flood, for these would also be the characteristics in the days just before the return of Christ.
