THE SEED
WAR
PART
3
Genesis
3:15 And I
will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed;
he shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

In our last post, we identified “THE” woman’s
seed that fulfilled this prophetic curse. That seed is Yahushua Messiah. We also saw the bruising/crushing of his heel and the
prophetic imagery of him crushing the head of the serpent’s seed (the skull of
Goliath under the foot of the stake on Golgotha, where the seed of the woman
was impaled).
Today, I would like to
examine why it is that Goliath is representative of the seed of the serpent.
Genesis 4:25 And Adam knew his wife
again; and she bare a son, and called his name Seth: For Elohim, said she, hath appointed me another seed instead
of Abel, whom Cain slew.
In this verse, Eve is referring to a
new son through which the bloodline of Adam could descend unto the fulfilment
of the promise that her seed would crush the head of the serpent’s seed. There is no explanation in the Scriptures why
Cain was excluded from being that bloodline; though there exist many ideas
postulated by people through the ages.
The two simplest explanations would be that the mark he received from
IAUE after he killed his brother excluded him (Genesis 4:15). Another would be demonstrated repeatedly
throughout the Scripture. He simply was not
the one who was chosen.
Romans 9:6 Not as though the word of Elohim hath taken
none effect. For they are not all Israel, which are of Israel:
7 Neither, because they are the seed of Abraham, are they
all children: but, In Isaac shall thy seed be called.
8 That is, They which are the children of the flesh, these are not
the children of Elohim: but the children of the promise are counted for the
seed.
9 For this is the word of promise, At this time will I come, and
Sarah shall have a son.
10 And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one,
even by our father Isaac;
11 (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any
good or evil, that the purpose of Elohim according to election might stand,
not of works, but of him that calleth;)
12 It was said unto her, The elder shall serve the younger.
13 As it is written, Jacob
have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
There are other theories about Cain;
but we will not entertain them at this point.
Nearly 2,500 years passed from the
creation of Adam and Eve to the place where we pick up the story, today.
Genesis 6:1 And it came to pass,
when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born
unto them,
2 That the sons of Elohim saw the daughters of men that
they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
Who were these “sons of Elohim?” The use of this term in the Old Testament
always referred to angels. It is used three times in the Book of Job to refer
to the angels as the sons of Elohim presenting themselves before Elohim. Throughout Jewish history, the Septuagint, virtually
all of the religions throughout the world and even historical records, these “sons
of Elohim” were known to be angels. It
was not until the 5th century AD, that the theory that the sons of
Elohim represented the bloodline of Seth was promoted and popularized. This was done, apparently, because the truth
had become an embarrassment to the church in Rome.
So, here we see angels mating with the
daughters of men.
3 And IAUE said, My spirit shall not always strive
with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and
twenty years.
4 There were giants
in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of Elohim came
in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became
mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
To the early Hebrew reader of the
Torah, they would have read that there were “Nephiyl” (or “Nephilim” – the fallen/cast
off) in the earth in those days. This is
the first time the word is used in Scripture and is found only in one other
place (Numbers 13:33); but it provides no explanation for the term. It is
simply understood that the reader would know who the Nephilim were. The word
had to have been known from other sources; whether that would be in the stories
passed down from generation to generation; or in historical documents. The word “nephiyl” does not mean giants; but
it was known that they WERE giants. The
word used in the Septuagint (the Greek translation of the Tanak, the Old
Testament) is “gigantes”
(giants) which makes it quite obvious that the Hebrews knew the Nephilim were
giants.
Twice the Tanak (Old Testament) makes
reference to “the book of Jasher” as a viable historical record. The New Testament
book of Jude quotes verbatim a prophecy from the book of Enoch. Regardless whether either of these should be
regarded as Scripture, the Scripture itself regards them as having historical
value. (For
centuries, the Book of Enoch was honored as Scripture, and is still today
contained in the “Apocrypha” as Scripture in various translations of the Old
Testament.) In the same
way we study history books in school and we “believe” what they tell us
happened in our past, the books of Jasher and Enoch provide us significant
insight as history books into this time period we find described in Genesis 6.
They provide the historical record that the offspring of these fallen angels
were called the Nephilim.
The Book of Jasher describes 200 “Watcher”
angels whose job it was, apparently, to watch the events of man unfold upon the
earth. They conspired to take wives of
the daughters of men. They knew that
their action would be regarded as a grievous sin in the eyes of IAUE; but they
compacted amongst themselves under a curse that all of them would agree to do
so. The names of their leaders are given
in the book of Jasher. Both Jude and the
apostle Peter comment on their action recorded here in Genesis 6.
Jude 6 And the angels which
kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he
hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the
great day.
7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like
manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh,
are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.
2 Peter 2:4 For if Elohim spared not the angels that sinned, but cast
them down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved
unto judgment;
5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person,
a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the
ungodly;
6 And turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrha into ashes
condemned them with an overthrow, making them an ensample unto those that after
should live ungodly;
The Watchers “kept not their first
estate.” That is to say, they forsook their spiritual bodies (their “habitation”)
to assume physical bodies in order to mate with the daughters of men. This was
compared with the sin of Sodom and Gomorrha, “going after strange flesh,” both
by Peter and by Jude.
The Nephilim were referred to as the “mighty men of old.” Jasher says they were as tall as “300 ells.” An ell was another word for “cubit,” which
would put them around 450 feet tall (one and a half football fields tall, to
provide a means of comparison). The Greeks referred to them as the Titans. Yes, they were actually real. (In fact, I have been
informed that what the rest of the world refers to as Greek mythology, is
taught in Greece as their history.) The
Nephilim also mated and produced giant offspring; but they were considerably
less tall than their parents.
Jasher and Enoch record that it was
not enough for the fallen angels to have corrupted themselves and to produce a
hybrid race among the lineage of Adam; but they taught their offspring forbidden
knowledge and technologies. Along with
that, it was also not enough that they corrupted mankind, they mated with
animals and experimented genetically with all forms of “flesh” of both man and
animals. They gave birth to chimeras
(human/animal hybrids) as well as animal/animal hybrids, until all flesh had
been corrupted.
There were two really severe problems
with this mixing of DNA.
Genesis 6:5 And Elohim saw that the wickedness of man was great in the
earth, and that every imagination of
the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.
The hybrid offspring of the fallen
angels (the Nephilim) and the offspring of the Nephilim, and the cross-breed
hybrids of man and animals were no longer made in the image and after the
likeness of IAUE. The animals of every
kind were no longer able to reproduce after their kind as IAUE had made them. In addition, the resulting offspring were
wild and naturally wicked.
Genesis 6:6 And it repented IAUE that he had made man on the earth, and
it grieved him at his heart.
7 And IAUE said, I will destroy man whom I have created
from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and
the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the IAUE.
9 These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah
walked with Elohim.
If IAUE did not act quickly, all of
the human race which was made in His image would be gone from the earth; and
the rise of the seed of the woman would be a physical impossibility. When the
Scripture says that Noah was “perfect in his generations,” it means his
bloodline had not been contaminated with hybrid DNA. His generations were not corrupted. He would be the one through whom the seed of
the woman still could come. The serpent’s
plan to eradicate the bloodline of Seth, though coming very close to success,
would fail.
Genesis 6:10 And Noah begat three sons, Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
11 The earth also was corrupt before Elohim, and the earth was
filled with violence.
12 And Elohim looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was
corrupt; for all flesh had corrupted his way upon the earth.
13 And Elohim said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come
before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
Noah lived in a day when hybrids
roamed the earth; and the thoughts and actions of man were only evil,
constantly. IAUE would preserve “the
seed” by destroying all flesh upon the earth by flood. This was the singular purpose of the flood---to
eradicate the hybrid bloodlines in order to preserve the bloodline that would bring
to earth the promised Messiah.
Number 13:33 And there we saw the Nephilim, the sons of
Anak, who come of the Nephilim: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers,
and so we were in their sight.
The
Seed War continues.
