00:01:52All throughout the late 1800s and the early 1900s, newspapers across America ran story after story of an astonishing phenomenon, the discovery of giant human skeletons.
00:02:04From California to Ohio, people claimed to have unearthed enormous bones, often measuring upwards of 7 to 9 feet in length.
00:02:12These skeletons didn't just appear in rural fields or hidden caves.
00:02:16They were found in places steeped in myth, mystery, and ancient history, sparking curiosity and speculation across the nation.
00:02:24One of the most famous accounts came from the Grand Canyon, a place already shrouded in mystery and Native American lore.
00:02:30In 1909, the Arizona Gazette reported that an explorer named G.E. Kincaid, supposedly under the Smithsonian Institution's sponsorship, had found a hidden cave system containing not only giant bones, but also relics that bore a striking resemblance to ancient Egyptian artifacts.
00:02:48The article described underground passages filled with statues, mummies, and hieroglyphic engravings, bizarre for a desert landscape thousands of miles from Egypt.
00:02:58Kincaid's account noted that the structures within the cave bore the names and likenesses of Egyptian gods, suggesting that these caverns were more than just burial sites.
00:03:08They were temples, possibly belonging to a civilization lost to time.
00:03:14The Kincaid discovery became an instant legend, though it quickly vanished from headlines, raising suspicions of a cover-up.
00:03:20Many believe that these findings were suppressed as they posed uncomfortable questions about America's ancient past and possibly conflicted with dominant archaeological narratives.
00:03:30For those who believe this story, this cover-up wasn't merely academic, it was intentional, meant to conceal a lost history.
00:03:38Beyond the Grand Canyon, giant bones were reported worldwide, further fueling the theory that these giants were part of an ancient, sophisticated culture.
00:03:47Possibly the Mound Builders, an enigmatic civilization that left earthen structures across the Midwest.
00:03:53Though skeptics were quick to dismiss the findings as either misinterpretations or hoaxes, the accounts continued to surface, each adding to the growing legend of America's giants.
00:04:04Some theorize that these artifacts and bones belonged to a lost race of giants whose existence was erased from mainstream historical records for reasons still unknown.
00:04:14The more these stories appeared, the more they began to weave a larger narrative.
00:04:18Were these giants remnants of the Nephilim, the Fallen Ones mentioned in Genesis 6-4, described as beings of enormous size and strength?
00:04:26This biblical connection provided a spiritual dimension to the mystery, as people questioned whether these giants were the offspring of the Sons of God.
00:04:34If so, why had they resurfaced in America, and why was their existence seemingly obscured?
00:04:40To answer this question, I sat down with author and filmmaker Timothy Alberino in order to find out what's really going on.
00:04:49We should be careful with some of the accounts that come out of the newspapers at the turn of the century, late 1800s, early 1900s.
00:04:58There was a lot of embellishment. There was a lot of hyperbole in the papers.
00:05:03The periodicals were in competition, and so they would often publish sensational stories to try and captivate the audience.
00:05:13So it was not uncommon to have all kinds of fanciful stories being reported as legitimate news stories.
00:05:22Having said that, there's no way that all of the stories related to the bones of giants that appeared in those periodicals are all false.
00:05:34There's definitely, in my estimation, there's definitely truth to the idea that the bones of giants were being discovered in the mounds of America.
00:05:46I think that it's the most logical conclusion to draw when you look at all the evidence, when you look at the abundance of stories that were appearing at the turn of the century.
00:05:54Abraham Lincoln, of course, famously mentions the bones of that ancient race of giants that are buried in the mounds of America, something to that effect.
00:06:05Colonel Powell, who was the director of the Smithsonian Institution, in a correspondence with a colleague of his, was remarking about the bones of giants being discovered in America.
00:06:18He said that we cannot yet discuss, basically, and this is paraphrasing, we can't discuss this topic of giants until we can determine where they came from.
00:06:28Because he was most interested and most concerned with the anthropologic doctrine of isolationism.
00:06:39And that was why he was hesitant to talk about the giants because, according to my research, the giants came from the Middle East, primarily.
00:06:53The giants that were in America, the red-haired giants that the Indians talk about, and indeed some of the accounts of the bones of giants being discovered in the mounds in various parts of America, especially in the Midwest.
00:07:05Those giants, there was evidence that they had red hair, and that they were dressed in, in some cases they were dressed in various kinds of armor, and were discovered with artifacts that were reminiscent of Middle Eastern artifacts.
00:07:20So, Colonel Powell's problem, who was the director of the Smithsonian Institution, his problem was not so much that the bones of giants were being discovered, but that apparently they had arrived to the United States from foreign shores.
00:07:34Which, again, contradicted the doctrine of isolationism.
00:07:38There was one particular article that told the story of one professor, Kincaid, who discovered Egyptian artifacts in the Grand Canyon.
00:07:48And there's no way to know if that story is true, or if it was just a fanciful attempt by the newspaper to regale their readers with this incredible story.
00:08:03So, I think that there is something in the Grand Canyon, I'm not sure what it is, but the Grand Canyon is an area that is very, it's very bizarrely guarded.
00:08:16There are parts of it that are off-limits, not just because of geological concerns, but there's something else going on there as far as I'm concerned.
00:08:26I don't know, I don't know if any of those stories about Egyptian artifacts in the Grand Canyon can be verified, or have been verified.
00:08:34Again, I'm cautious when dealing with those stories that came from the newspapers at the turn of the century.
00:08:42But, at the same time, I would not discount the notion that you could find Egyptian artifacts in the Grand Canyon.
00:08:48I think that the ancients were traveling, were crossing the oceans much earlier than we think.
00:08:54I would say, undoubtedly, the Phoenicians were, and it wouldn't surprise me if the Egyptians were.
00:09:03But, undoubtedly, the Phoenicians.
00:09:05So, I would expect to find Phoenician artifacts, and indeed, I believe Phoenician artifacts have been found in America.
00:09:13In my opinion, this is a telltale sign of being a Tophet.
00:09:17Tophet was a sacrificial altar of the Phoenician people.
00:09:21This bowl is about the same size as an infant child would be.
00:09:26So, you think this was used for ritual sacrifice of babies?
00:09:29I think it's indicative of child sacrifice on the banks of the Chicago River thousands of years ago.
00:09:35There are sites where you have a Phoenician or a Proto-Phoenician script, for example, that have been discovered.
00:09:42At American Stonehenge, L.A. Marsoli discovered this, well, he highlighted this in one of his films,
00:09:49that there were Phoenician, some sort of a Phoenician or Proto-Phoenician script discovered at that site.
00:09:56And if that's true, and I believe it is, then that is definitive evidence that the Phoenicians were here in the ancient past.
00:10:05And if the Phoenicians could make it, then it's also possible that the Egyptians could as well.
00:10:10The Phoenicians were the better mariners.
00:10:12They were, in fact, the builders, the boat builders for the Egyptian fleet, and they were the master mariners.
00:10:20The Phoenicians could have had all kinds of artifacts that they carried with them because they were traders.
00:10:24So, they would stop at all of the major ports on their journeys and engage in trade.
00:10:31And among the Phoenicians, I believe that among the regular-sized Phoenicians were giants, were individuals of extraordinary stature.
00:10:41The Phoenicians certainly had a cult of giant worship, and I believe that they had some descendants of the Nephilim or the Anakim among them because they were essentially Canaanites.
00:10:57Indeed, the Greeks called the Canaanites Phoenician.
00:11:01That's where we get the term.
00:11:03So, the Phoenicians were obviously a seafaring people, and we know that the Philistines were a seafaring people.
00:11:10There could be some crossover there.
00:11:12And the Philistines, among the Philistines was Goliath of Gath, the most famous giant in the Bible who David slew.
00:11:20And so, there's ample evidence that there were giants among the Phoenicians and that the Phoenicians traveling all around the world were, in a sense, depositing these descendants of the Nephilim on different continents, including North America.
00:11:39I believe that the key to understanding the dispersion of the Nephilim all across the earth is the Phoenicians.
00:11:48They definitely had a presence, a very prominent presence on the island of Sardinia.
00:11:54And in fact, I would say that even a more Canaanitish proto-Phoenician culture inhabited Sardinia first.
00:12:04And among this culture were people of extraordinary stature, giants.
00:12:11And others who have investigated, some investigators in the 1800s and early 1900s, drew the same conclusion that there are many indications that Canaanitish giants inhabited the island of Sardinia.
00:12:25I myself conducted two separate investigations on the island and interviewed multiple witnesses, mostly elderly people who were living and who grew up during a time when the government was still concealing the bones of giants.
00:12:40Not just concealing, when I say the government, I mean the provincial government in Sardinia and also the University of Cagliari, the capital city of Cagliari in Sardinia, seems to have been involved in not only covering up and concealing the existence of giants, but confiscating the relics, the artifacts, the bones of giants on the island of Sardinia.
00:13:05And these witnesses were not conveying to me hearsay, they were telling me stories about digging up the bones and bodies of giants themselves.
00:13:15And these are not, lest anyone think that these people are confusing these bones with giant sloths or mammoths or dinosaurs, the reason why this was so popular in Sardinia, the stories of people digging up the bones of giants,
00:13:29was because people were actively looking for the bones of giants because oftentimes you could find bracelets and necklaces and rings on the deceased bodies of these gigantic individuals.
00:13:40And so people were obviously wanting to, it was sort of, they were treasure hunting, they wanted to harvest the valuables from these bodies because they were so often associated with riches, with jewels, with various kinds of ornaments, even earrings.
00:13:55And obviously mammoths and giant sloths and dinosaurs were not in the habit of wearing jewelry.
00:14:01And I've interviewed dozens of people, dozens of people who discovered the bodies of giants in different circumstances.
00:14:08Some people were just plowing in their field. Others were digging the foundations of their basements.
00:14:13Others were officially employed by the government to dig up artifacts related to the Neurogic civilization, the ancient Neurogic civilization, and working around the Neurogi towers.
00:14:30And we're just, we're in the course of excavating some of these sites, we're discovering entire skeletons of giants and we're talking anywhere from seven and a half to 12 foot to 15 foot tall.
00:14:48So we're not just talking about, you know, six and a half foot tall people.
00:14:53And most of the accounts were much larger than seven foot. Most of the accounts were eight, nine, ten foot giants, all the way up to 15.
00:15:01And they were explicit. The stories are, there's just way too many eyewitness accounts, way too many people who have held the bones of giants in their hands.
00:15:12Way too many people who have opened sarcophagi of giants in Sardinia to discount this as mere fables, folklore.
00:15:24And again, I interviewed individuals who took the rings off of the fingers, the gigantic rings off of the gigantic fingers.
00:15:32And then later on, when the discovery came to light, individuals, agents from the government or from the university would show up to their house and forcibly confiscate all of the artifacts.
00:15:44So this was happening, by the way, this was happening in the early 20th century on the island of Sardinia.
00:15:51So all the way through the teens of the 20s and the 30s and the 40s, even up into the 50s in Sardinia, people were routinely discovering the skeletal remains of gigantic humanoids.
00:16:07And so if you interview, especially the elderly people in Sardinia, you will discover that many of them, all of them remember when the bones of giants were being routinely discovered and confiscated.
00:16:21But some of them will tell you stories of their own encounters with such artifacts.
00:16:28And again, I interviewed a handful of these individuals who were in the employ of the government to excavate the relics of the Nerogic civilization.
00:16:42And among those relics were the skeletal remains of giants, most likely Canaanitish giants, the Rephaim, we're talking about the descendants of the Nephilim.
00:16:55We know that the land of Canaan was littered with clans of giants, especially in the hill country.
00:17:06There were the sons of the Anakim who were themselves the descendants of the Nephilim.
00:17:12These Amzumim, the Emim, various tribes, clans of giants inhabiting the hill country in Canaan.
00:17:19And these were the most formidable enemies that Joshua and the Israelites had to contend with in order to subdue the land, to conquer the land of Canaan.
00:17:28So who knows how long these Canaanitish tribes, these giant clans were inhabiting Canaan before the conquest.
00:17:38It could have been for thousands of years, could have been for hundreds of years.
00:17:44But certainly this seems to have been, the land of Canaan seems to have been a veritable minefield of the descendants of the Nephilim after the flood.
00:17:54So they consolidated in this region.
00:17:57Now it perhaps wasn't exclusively in the land of Canaan that these giant clans had settled.
00:18:06Maybe all over the Mediterranean, but certainly the land of Canaan was perhaps ground zero for post-flood giants, the offspring of the Nephilim.
00:18:17And I would say that the land of Canaan and Sardinia, because Sardinia certainly to me appears to be one of the primary settlements of the descendants of the Nephilim in the post-Diluvian age.
00:18:31I think of the giants, certainly there was a mandate from heaven, according to the Bible, to extinguish, to annihilate the offspring of the Nephilim.
00:18:42This is of course the famous genocide that happened in Canaan during the conquest.
00:18:49And what most people don't realize is that those clans, the ones that God wanted the Hebrews to utterly annihilate, were in fact the descendants of the Nephilim.
00:19:03These were the clans that were intermingled with the Anakim and the offspring of what was left of the offspring of the Watchers in the post-flood world.
00:19:17So there's a reason why this genocide was directed at these clans in the hill country, precisely because they were the remnants of the hybrid species that were inhabiting the earth, still in the aftermath of the flood.
00:19:31And isn't it interesting the way Hollywood is beating this drum about the return of the Titans?
00:19:36Thanos, the Mad Titan, Sam Worthington, who was in Clash of the Titans and Wrath of the Titans, starred in a movie last year that went straight to Netflix called The Titan, and the new Godzilla movie where they have rebranded them.
00:19:48They're no longer Mutos, which is what? Monsters of Unusual Size or whatever. They've rebranded them as the Titans, the Original and Rightful Rulers of Earth.
00:19:56Because again, presenting them as Titans, the Original and Rightful Rulers of the Earth.
00:20:01The Titans are still around. In fact, I argue in my book Last Clash of the Titans that they are somehow still influencing things on this earth, even though they are currently chained in the abyss.
00:20:10Revelation 9 says they're going to get out for five and a half months at the end.
00:20:13When the Nephilim return, and we understand that the spirits of the Nephilim that were destroyed in the days of Noah, in the flood, were barred entrance into the afterlife, into the netherworld, into heaven, basically condemned to roam the earth.
00:20:28That was the belief of the early church. That was the belief of the Jews in the time of Jesus and throughout the Old Testament period.
00:20:35It wasn't until Augustine in about the 5th century that that belief went away. He also basically turned the church away from believing that the Nephilim had been created at all.
00:20:47Ezekiel, though, saw it. And this is the thing. God bless people like L.A. Marzullo. You've been teaching this for a long time. He's right. The Nephilim are returning.
00:21:00But I think Ezekiel 39 is a clue, but you've got to understand the worldview of the prophets to understand what Ezekiel was writing.
00:21:09In Ezekiel 39, he's writing about the culmination of the war of Gog and Magog. And Gog was the Old Testament Antichrist figure.
00:21:16He is the figure that John, in the book of Revelation, calls the Antichrist.
00:21:21That is the same war that culminates with the Battle of Armageddon, which is fought for the Har-Moed, God's Mount of Assembly, which is Zion, the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
00:21:33Ezekiel says God said that he will prepare a place in Israel for burial of Magog, the forces of Magog.
00:21:40The valley of the travelers east of the sea refers to east of the Dead Sea, and it will block the travelers.
00:21:48The key is understanding that travelers in the Old Testament concept, in the Old Testament world, were spirits that would travel or cross over from one plane of existence to another.
00:21:59In other words, the realm of the dead to the land of the living.
00:22:02And the places where he identifies east of the Dead Sea are places that, during the Exodus, the stations of the Exodus, refer to a couple of places that are named for these interactions with the spirit realm.
00:22:16One of the stops in the Exodus, one of the stations of the Exodus, is called Ovoth, which means spirits of the dead.
00:22:22It's based on a root word, Ov, which means medium.
00:22:25The medium of Endor that Saul went to see was the Ov of Endor.
00:22:31In fact, one of the giants killed by David's men, Ishbi, they condensed the word, Ishbi-Benab is how it looks to us in English, Ishbi-Ben-Ov, Ishbi, son of the necromancer, son of the medium.
00:22:47And he was of the descendants of the Rapha, the sons of the Rephaim.
00:22:51The Rephaim were these spirits that the Amorites, the Canaanites, believed were the spirits of the mighty men who were of old, the ancestors of their kings.
00:23:01They were called in Canaanite texts, called by scholars, the Rephaim texts, written about the time of the judges, where these Rephaim were summoned through necromancy rituals to the tabernacle of El, Mount Hermon, where El, they believed, would speak words of revivification to resurrect these spirits that were called warriors of Baal.
00:23:26And in these texts, they're described as warriors.
00:23:29They mount their chariots and they travel first one day and then another.
00:23:33And at dawn of the third day, they arrive to be resurrected.
00:23:40Like Jesus, who went down and preached and proclaimed to the spirits in prison until dawn of the third day when he arrived, except that he really was resurrected.
00:23:53And Ezekiel, in Ezekiel 39, says, this is where these travelers will be buried.
00:24:00Another one of the stops, in fact, the mountain where Moses was led by God to get his only view of the Holy Land, the Promised Land.
00:24:09Climb this mountain of the Avarim.
00:24:12In Hebrew, that means travelers.
00:24:14Mount Nebo is the mountain of the travelers.
00:24:17It's right there across from Jericho in the plains of Moab.
00:24:22And that's where this demonic army will fall.
00:24:26Now, I believe that the Nephilim will return.
00:24:28I believe they're going to be the demons who possess a human army.
00:24:31I think by this point, the restrainer will have been removed.
00:24:34The church will be removed.
00:24:36So I pray, I'm right, that we won't be here for that day because that's the day of Armageddon.
00:24:43And when this demonic army comes against Jerusalem to try to claim God's mount of assembly,
00:24:49just like Lucifer in Isaiah 14, I will establish my mount of assembly on Mount Ziphon.
00:24:57Raise himself above the stars, the angels of God.
00:25:01On that day, when God personally takes the battlefield, which Ezekiel describes,
00:25:07the travelers will be destroyed.
00:25:09And interestingly, in that verse, in Ezekiel 39, he says,
00:25:17That phrase is similar to one that we see in the Old Testament many times.
00:25:21The holy one of Israel.
00:25:23Ezekiel 39, after he destroys the Antichrist's army in the battle of Armageddon that ends the war of Gog and Magog,
00:25:30he becomes the holy one in Israel because he's on the battlefield.
00:25:35So yes, that is when, I mean, the Nephilim have always been here.
00:25:39If they're the spirits of those who died in the flood, they've always been with us because demons have always been with us.
00:25:46But on that day, they will be inhabiting the bodies of the, I believe, this army that comes against Israel.
00:25:52It will literally be an army of the evil dead.
00:25:56So there was this campaign of extermination against the giants that is evident in the Old Testament.
00:26:02David, of course, and his mighty men were contending with the offspring,
00:26:06with the remnant of the giants that existed in their neck of the woods, in Canaan, in the Levant.
00:26:15But I think also the giants probably were bred out over time.
00:26:24That genetic material, those genetic markers of the giants were bred out into the population over time.
00:26:32So you would have successive generations of giants that were becoming more diminutive in stature,
00:26:38were becoming smaller and smaller as they were intermingling and their DNA was being mixed into the gene pool
00:26:45until it was probably very rare to have in a particular community individuals of extraordinary stature, gigantic.
00:26:57In other words, 9, 10, 11, 12 feet tall.
00:27:00So just the natural process of interbreeding with regular-sized human beings would wash out that gene pool
00:27:08and would disseminate the genes of the giants through the general population.
00:27:15And so in that way, the giants would have gradually disappeared.
00:27:19Unless you had an area on earth where the genes of the giants could be conserved
00:27:27and there was a big enough population of giants to where they could interbreed
00:27:32and in that way preserve those genetic markers.
00:27:37Otherwise, they would have intermingled with the local populaces and gradually reduced in stature over time.
00:27:46As I said, successive generations would have had less and less of those genetic markers present in their genomes.
00:27:52That, I think, is what happened in the United States, here in America, North America rather.
00:27:56Whereas at one time you had giants who were living among the native people precisely because the Phoenicians had brought them over.
00:28:06I believe the Phoenicians were mining copper in the Great Lakes.
00:28:10And the Phoenicians were in the habit of establishing colonies wherever they went.
00:28:15And they were friendly colonies.
00:28:16The Phoenicians, their goal was to establish trade.
00:28:19And these colonies would intermingle with the populaces.
00:28:23And they would create permanent trading posts.
00:28:25So they would not be hostile, in most cases, to the local populations.
00:28:32They would want to integrate with them for the purpose of trade.
00:28:35And so if there were giants among the Phoenicians, these giants would have also integrated with the local populaces, i.e. the Native American tribes.
00:28:49And so you would have had, essentially, Native American giants after that integration took place and successive generations were born.
00:28:57And so I think that's why you find the bones of giants in the mounds, in the Indian mounds.
00:29:03And in the beginning, those giants would have probably been fair-skinned, red-haired or blonde-haired humanoid.
00:29:12But after enough interbreeding, they would have looked more and more like Native Americans, right?
00:29:18So you would have a very interesting situation in which the genetic markers of the Nephilim were introduced into North America through the Phoenicians, interbreeding with the Native Americans.
00:29:29And that's not to say that the giants themselves were peaceful.
00:29:32The Native Americans have, they tell stories of the ferocity of the giants.
00:29:37Everyone's familiar with Lovelock Cave and the fact that the Indians there wanted to eliminate the red-haired giants inhabiting that cave precisely because they were hostile, they were aggressive.
00:29:47And they effectively destroyed that clan of giants by trapping them in that cave and killing them with smoke and fire.
00:29:56So the giants had a predisposition to violence, to hostility.
00:30:06There are even Native American legends that talk about the cannibalistic giants, that they were cannibals.
00:30:12So I'm not trying to say that all of the giants were just integrating with the Native populace.
00:30:21Some of them certainly were, while others were probably just remaining hostile and eating, feeding on the Native populace or forcibly taking their women and attempting to copulate with them, perhaps to some varying success.
00:30:34Of course, depending on how large the giants were.
00:30:37So there's all kinds of scenarios in which we could envision the giants dispersing across the earth from ground zero, which would have been Canaan and Sardinia and the islands in the Mediterranean, I think, generally speaking.
00:30:57And if they're driven out of Canaan during the conquest, then they've got to find other places to live.
00:31:04And if they're being primarily disseminated through a seafaring people, namely the Phoenicians, then it sort of makes sense that you find the giants all over the earth because they were distributed all over the earth through the activity, the trade activity of the Phoenicians.
00:31:21And I am absolutely unequivocally convinced that the Phoenicians were mining copper in the Great Lakes.
00:31:28We know it's a historical fact that the Phoenicians circumnavigated Africa.
00:31:35They were the first to do so, but I believe they were crossing the seas.
00:31:39They had remarkable boats.
00:31:40The Phoenicians devised their boats in such a way that they could be disassembled and then reassembled very quickly.
00:31:50So almost like linking logs or Legos or something like this, the Phoenicians, they could arrive to the shores of a distant continent.
00:32:00They could disassemble their boats, carry the planks through the force over the landscape, and then reassemble the boats in the rivers, in the waterways.
00:32:09And if we think about in terms of North America, they could have arrived at the Gulf of St. Lawrence.
00:32:17They could have taken their boats as far as they could get down the water wave.
00:32:20When they encountered an impediment such as Niagara Falls, they could disassemble their boats, carry the planks over land, reassemble the boats in the waterways, and make their way to the Great Lakes.
00:32:31Right?
00:32:33And so the Phoenicians were remarkable boat builders.
00:32:37They were remarkable craftsmen.
00:32:39In fact, I believe that the Phoenicians were the only post-flood culture that could still build megaliths.
00:32:46And they did so on the island of Sardinia, although not to the same grandeur as the antediluvian civilizations.
00:32:55But yet they held the knowledge.
00:32:58They vouchsafed the knowledge.
00:33:00They were the keepers of secret knowledge.
00:33:02Indeed, the Phoenicians were, in effect, a secret society.
00:33:06And modern masonry, Freemasonry, is derived from the mysteries of the Phoenicians.
00:33:13Who was Hiram Abiff?
00:33:16Hiram Abiff, who was basically the founder of the Masonic order.
00:33:20The Masons will say maybe that Solomon, or perhaps even go all the way back to Tubalcain, or Enoch, or maybe perhaps Nimrod, is the founder of their society, of their fraternity.
00:33:32But if you look at the lore of the Masons, you're going to discover that Hiram Abiff is really regarded as the founder.
00:33:42And Hiram Abiff, according to legend, was hired by Solomon to help them build the temple.
00:33:50Indeed, it was King Hiram who was hired, who was a good friend of Solomon's, who Solomon employed, and all of Hiram's, King Hiram's artisans, to build the temple.
00:34:00Who was Hiram?
00:34:02We're talking about the king of Sidon and Tyre.
00:34:08He was a Phoenician king.
00:34:11So Hiram was the king of the Phoenicians.
00:34:14And these were the master masons.
00:34:17These were the master artisans of the ancient world.
00:34:21And they were the master mariners.
00:34:23And their alphabetical system is the foundation of our own.
00:34:30That's why we call it phonics, because it comes from Phoenician.
00:34:36Because it was the Phoenicians who created the alphabetic system that we use today, the base of it, the foundation of it, which we've elaborated on, the Greeks and the Romans and so forth.
00:34:45We've all elaborated on that system.
00:34:48But the Phoenicians were remarkable.
00:34:51There's very little known about the Phoenicians, even though they were probably the most remarkable ancient civilization in regard to their great knowledge.
00:34:59Even more so than the Egyptians as it pertains to their ability in masonry and boat making and so forth.
00:35:09Remember, it was the cedars of Lebanon, the planks that were used in the great temples in the Levant and in the Fertile Crescent in Egypt.
00:35:22The wooden planks of their temples and their great boats.
00:35:25Everything that was made, I shouldn't say everything, much of what was made out of wood for the royal palaces and the great temples came from Lebanon.
00:35:37From the cedars of Lebanon.
00:35:39And those cedars were delivered by the Phoenicians and worked by the Phoenicians.
00:35:45The master craftsmen, the master masons, the master mariners, the master navigators of the ancient world.
00:35:52So, I believe that the Phoenicians were harboring secret knowledge that they somehow were able to conserve that was either given to them or they discovered from the pre-flood world.
00:36:05I don't think that the Phoenicians brought the language from the pre-flood world.
00:36:08I think that they were a secret society.
00:36:10The whole civilization was like a secret society.
00:36:13Very little is known about it today.
00:36:15But they were essential.
00:36:17If you want to understand the ancient world, truly understand it, especially in regard to trade, then you have to be familiar with the Phoenicians.
00:36:24You have to familiarize yourself with the Phoenicians because they are coming in and out of all these different cultures all the time.
00:36:31And everyone's talking about them.
00:36:33The Greeks were talking about them.
00:36:35The ancient Egyptians were talking about them.
00:36:38The Persians were interacting with them.
00:36:40Everybody was interacting with the Phoenicians.
00:36:42Of course, the Hebrews were interacting with the Phoenicians.
00:36:45Sometimes on very friendly terms like Solomon and King Hiram of Tyre.
00:36:48And sometimes there was hostility.
00:36:51But the Phoenicians are always an important aspect, element of what's happening in the ancient world.
00:36:58And yet we know almost nothing about them.
00:37:00We know a whole lot about the ancient Egyptians.
00:37:02We know a whole lot about the other Mesopotamian civilizations and the ancient Greeks and so forth.
00:37:08But we know very little, almost nothing about the Phoenicians.
00:37:13Of course, the most famous Phoenician that everyone is familiar with that they don't realize is Hannibal.
00:37:20Hannibal Barca, who was the greatest enemy that Rome had ever seen.
00:37:25The greatest enemy with whom Rome had ever contended was Hannibal.
00:37:29And where was he from?
00:37:30Where was he from?
00:37:31Carthage.
00:37:32Carthage was in North Africa.
00:37:34And Carthage was a Phoenician settlement.
00:37:38They were Phoenician.
00:37:40And the Romans were appalled by the Phoenicians because, precisely because,
00:37:44the Phoenicians were in the habit of sacrificing their children to idols.
00:37:50To Baal.
00:37:51To Baal and the other Phoenician gods.
00:37:54And they would sacrifice their children in the most heinous way.
00:37:57And the Romans were incensed by this.
00:37:59And this is one of the reasons why the Romans hated the Phoenicians.
00:38:02And the Phoenicians came very close to destroying Rome through Hannibal.
00:38:08These were remarkable people and, again, almost nothing is known of them.
00:38:13Even though they were, in my estimation, sailing their remarkable ships to the shores of many different continents.
00:38:22I get the sense, and I know this is conspiratorial,
00:38:25but I get the sense that there's somewhat of a conspiracy revolving around the Phoenicians.
00:38:30I think the Phoenicians were in possession of knowledge and artifacts that would, to some extent,
00:38:36should they come to light, rewrite history.
00:38:38Artifacts from the antediluvian world.
00:38:40And part of those artifacts would be the genetic stock of the Nephilim.
00:38:47The descendants of the Nephilim who were certainly in their midst.
00:38:54Mount Hermon has always been considered by these ancient Near Eastern cultures,
00:39:02and even by the Romans and the Greeks,
00:39:04to be what we would call today an axis mundi, a gateway to another realm,
00:39:10or perhaps a portal to somewhere else.
00:39:13It's a cosmic mountain.
00:39:15This is the way that the Mesopotamians would have viewed Mount Hermon.
00:39:18It's a cosmic mountain.
00:39:21And so it was believed that there was a gate there to the netherworld.
00:39:27And part of this lore revolves around the Enochian tale.
00:39:35And I say part of it because the Greeks had their own reasons for believing that,
00:39:41and the Canaanites had their own reasons for believing it,
00:39:43but obviously the Hebrews believed that because of the Enochian tale,
00:39:48that the Watchers descended here.
00:39:50And it's not coincidental that it was upon the slopes of Hermon
00:39:54that Jesus transfigured before his disciples.
00:40:00And it's not coincidental that it was at the base of Hermon
00:40:03where he declared that the gates of hell would not prevail against his church.
00:40:07And he did this specifically at the site of the Grotto of Pan,
00:40:12which was thought to be an entrance into the netherworld or the underworld.
00:40:16Mount Hermon is a cosmic mountain in the cosmology of the Mesopotamians,
00:40:22in the ancient Near Eastern cosmology.
00:40:24It is a cosmic mountain.
00:40:26And again, if that means something like a portal or a gate to hell
00:40:32or an Axis Mundi, whatever that means,
00:40:35it was viewed as this place where heaven and earth and the underworld were connected.
00:40:43That's what's known as an Axis Mundi.
00:40:46First Enoch relates an incredible story, a remarkable tale.
00:40:51And it turns out that this story lays the foundation
00:40:57for some of the most enigmatic references in the Old and New Testament of the Bible.
00:41:04So this isn't just some fanciful fiction
00:41:08that the Hebrews told their children at nighttime, some bedtime story.
00:41:13The story of First Enoch is foundational to Hebrew cosmology,
00:41:19to ancient Hebrew cosmology.
00:41:20You cannot remove the Enochian tale from ancient Hebrew cosmology.
00:41:26That's how foundational it is.
00:41:28And the story involves a company of 200 angels
00:41:32who the Book of Enoch denominates Watchers.
00:41:39Watchers
00:41:44And these angels were observing the daughters of men.
00:41:48And, of course, this is the reference in Genesis 6.
00:41:50They were observing the daughters of men.
00:41:52They saw that they were comely, that they were fair, that they were beautiful.
00:41:55And they desired to take them as wives.
00:42:00In fact, their desire, there's two explicit things they desired,
00:42:04two things that are conspicuous, and one thing that is inconspicuous.
00:42:07Two things that are directly mentioned, and the final motivation is inferred.
00:42:13So there's three motivations here.
00:42:15So the first thing we have to understand about the story of the Watchers
00:42:18is that there are three motivating factors that led to this transgression,
00:42:24which forms the beginning of the narrative,
00:42:27the historical narrative in the Book of Enoch.
00:42:31And the first motivation is the Watchers' desire
00:42:35to marry and copulate with the daughters of men.
00:42:41They desired to wed these women and to impregnate them.
00:42:45The second desire was to progenerate through them their own offspring.
00:42:51They wanted to procreate and have children with their wives, with their human wives.
00:42:56That's the second motivation.
00:42:58The third motivation, and the first two are implicit, the third one is inferred.
00:43:06So the first two motivations are implicit in the text, in the narrative of 1 Enoch.
00:43:11This third motivation that I'm going to explain is inferred in what happens.
00:43:17And the third motivation is they wanted to usurp dominion of the earth
00:43:24from the sons of Adam through the agency of their hybrid offspring.
00:43:30That's the third motivation, and that is, as I said, not implicit in the text, it's inferred.
00:43:36So the Watchers, with these desires in mind, concocted this plan.
00:43:40They were going to descend to the earth in direct defiance of God.
00:43:45They knew that what they were about to do amounted to a grave transgression.
00:43:51And so what they did before they enacted, before they effectuated this plan,
00:43:56was they bound themselves by an oath.
00:43:59And the book of Enoch says that they bound themselves by mutual imprecations,
00:44:04which means it's, we're all in this together.
00:44:08We're binding ourselves together so that we will all have to pay the penalty for this great sin.
00:44:14So they bind themselves by mutual imprecations, and then they descend to the earth,
00:44:20and the point of arrival happens to be the summit of Mount Hermon.
00:44:27And Mount Hermon is in the Lebanese mountain range, in the Lebanon mountain range,
00:44:34and it is one of the highest peaks.
00:44:37And the Watchers descend to Hermon.
00:44:39It's not clear if they bind themselves by the oath before or after.
00:44:42I think they bind themselves by the oath actually when they arrive
00:44:45because Mount Hermon was forever after known as the Mountain of Oath.
00:44:51So probably they bind themselves with an oath after they descend to Hermon.
00:44:57And as I said before, I do not envision the Watchers flapping their wings,
00:45:03descending alighting onto the summit of Hermon with these big bird wings.
00:45:09I think that they arrived at the helms of advanced aerospace vehicles,
00:45:13in other words, UFOs.
00:45:16So once they bind themselves by this oath, they descend into the plains,
00:45:21and they begin to choose from among the daughters of men suitable wives.
00:45:26Each one chose a singular wife.
00:45:30And the sense isn't that they were invading the villages
00:45:37and throwing these women over their shoulders.
00:45:40This is not what's being communicated.
00:45:42Rather, the way I envision it, I think the way it's implied in the text,
00:45:47is that the Watchers were covertly observing the villages
00:45:51and choosing each one of them which woman from these various villages
00:45:55that they wanted to take as a wife.
00:45:58And then a transaction occurs.
00:46:02And this is not exactly implicit in the text.
00:46:07This is also inferred in the text.
00:46:09The Watchers engage in a transaction with the fathers of the maidens that they want to wed.
00:46:15And remember, the motivation here is not just to copulate with these women,
00:46:22but rather to wed them, to take them as wives and procreate offspring with them,
00:46:27to have families, right, in the manner of the sons of Adam.
00:46:32And so the Watchers, once they have the maidens that they desire to wed,
00:46:37they go to their fathers and they make a transaction.
00:46:41And the transaction is something like, again, this is inferred in the text,
00:46:45the transaction is something like,
00:46:47I desire to wed your daughter and here's what I'm going to give you as a dowry,
00:46:52as payment in exchange for your daughter's hand in marriage.
00:46:56And this is all being done in accordance with the customs of the Ancient Near East.
00:47:02So the Watchers are engaging in the cultural norms here revolving around marriage,
00:47:10revolving around the covenant of marriage.
00:47:13And those norms involve something like a dowry, a payment for the daughter's hand in marriage.
00:47:21And this is a patriarchal society.
00:47:24So the fathers had the authority to give their daughters hands in marriage.
00:47:29The women really didn't have a say.
00:47:31Although, I do believe that the women were willing participants
00:47:37because they're later on judged for their transgression with the Watchers.
00:47:43So it's not that the Watchers are forcibly taking these women
00:47:46and demanding that the fathers give them their hands in marriage.
00:47:51Rather, there's a transaction happening here, a bargain.
00:47:54And it turns out it's a Faustian bargain.
00:47:57Because in exchange for their daughters' hands in marriage,
00:48:00the Watchers teach the sons of Adam.
00:48:04They teach the men.
00:48:06They instruct them in the knowledge that the men were already striving to learn.
00:48:13And that informs us that the Watchers already knew what kind of knowledge these men wanted.
00:48:22So they already came to the table with a bargaining chip in mind.
00:48:26You want to know X, Y, and Z.
00:48:28We can teach you these things.
00:48:30And in exchange, you give us your daughters' hands in marriage.
00:48:34So it's a transaction.
00:48:35And this is important because it's a legal transaction that the Watchers are after.
00:48:41This is a legal transaction with the rightful regents of the earth, the sons of Adam.
00:48:50And so the Watchers are obviously trying to accomplish something with legal cover.
00:48:58Otherwise, they would just have taken these women by force.
00:49:01They did not. They wed them.
00:49:03And you can envision the Watchers.
00:49:05And, of course, the Watchers are going to be received as the gods.
00:49:07The gods have descended.
00:49:09And you can imagine being a father of one of these maidens.
00:49:15This transcendent being, one of the gods, wants to marry my daughter
00:49:22and is going to give me as a dowry, is going to instruct me in the secrets of heaven.
00:49:27So it was a very favorable transaction for the sons of Adam.
00:49:33And again, I think specifically the sons of Cain, but that's just my hunch, let's say.
00:49:41So as the story goes, the Watchers wed the daughters of men.
00:49:45And we can imagine that this happened with all the pomp and ceremony and circumstance
00:49:50that such a wedding would have elicited.
00:49:55The gods are marrying these women.
00:49:58200 Watchers.
00:50:00So this is probably a really big celebration.
00:50:04And then the Watchers begin to teach men the secrets, the knowledge.
00:50:10They were striving to learn.
00:50:12In the meantime, as this is happening, the Watchers copulate with their wives.
00:50:16Their wives become pregnant.
00:50:20They conceive.
00:50:22And they give birth to giants.
00:50:28Some ancient texts suggest that some of the women's wombs were split open during birth
00:50:36or were split open by the enormous size of the babies that are growing in their wombs.
00:50:43But I don't think that's really historically accurate,
00:50:50inasmuch as this is a historical narrative,
00:50:52because the women are later turned into sirens.
00:50:55They're later judged.
00:50:56So I think that most of them and the Watchers instruct their wives in these forbidden secrets.
00:51:03So the women are participating in the iniquity of the Watchers.
00:51:07They're not just giving birth and dying, apparently, according to the narrative.
00:51:12So I think that the women were giving birth to normal-sized babies,
00:51:16just like babies that are born with gigantism.
00:51:21And those babies, as they progress into toddlers and then into adolescence,
00:51:29experience an accelerated rate of growth.
00:51:32Again, just like babies who are born with gigantism.
00:51:35They're born at a normal size and rate, but it's like the valve is never shut off.
00:51:41The puberty, the growth spurt never stops.
00:51:46They just keep going and going and going.
00:51:48But in the case of gigantism, it results in very large but weak human beings.
00:51:56Human beings who have dysfunctional organs and who are usually not very athletic.
00:52:03Andre the Giant was an exception, and even he died young, the wrestler.
00:52:09But most people with gigantism do not live very long,
00:52:12in contrast to the offspring of the Watchers,
00:52:15who were superhumanly enhanced with the DNA of their angelic fathers.
00:52:20And so these would have been superheroes, basically, hybrids.
00:52:25They would have been human enough to appropriate, and this is important,
00:52:30the authority and dominion of the sons of Adam on Earth, as given by God, that mandate.
00:52:35But yet at the same time, they were infused with the remarkable genetic markers
00:52:42and capabilities of their angelic fathers.
00:52:47And they grew to great stature, according to the Book of Enoch.
00:52:51They began to consume all of the acquisitions of the land.
00:52:55In other words, they were eating all the food.
00:52:59And human beings were forced to feed the giants, according to Enoch.
00:53:05And when they could no longer sustain them, their appetites, the giants began to feed on men.
00:53:12And as all of this is unfolding, mankind is, through the knowledge of the Watchers,
00:53:21they're developing various kinds of technology, including implements of war.
00:53:27Azazel, specifically the Watcher Azazel, taught men how to forge weapons and make armaments of war.
00:53:34And this is proliferating all kinds of bloodshed on the Earth.
00:53:40So there's a murderous bloodlust that is introduced through the knowledge of the Watchers
00:53:48that had not previously existed in the world.
00:53:52So the Watchers, the knowledge of the Watchers is corrupting mankind,
00:53:56and they're becoming murderous and bloodthirsty and are becoming very idolatrous and altogether wicked.
00:54:06So that by the time the Flood comes, their thoughts are only evil continually, as the Bible says.
00:54:14And so, eventually, there's so much chaos and havoc and death and war unfolding in the Earth
00:54:23that men began to cry out to God to petition Heaven.
00:54:29And their petitions are brought before the King of Heaven.
00:54:32The angels bring their petitions to the King of Heaven.
00:54:35And it is decided that the good Watchers...
00:54:38By the way, the Divine Council is apparent in 1 Enoch,
00:54:48because you have the good Watchers in Heaven and you have the apostate Watchers on Earth,
00:54:54the defected Watchers on Earth, and you have the good ones in Heaven.
00:54:57And the good ones are referred to as the holy Watchers of Heaven.
00:55:00This terminology, holy Watchers, is also apparent in the Book of Daniel.
00:55:06And so, this is effectively members of the Divine Council.
00:55:11This is the Council of the King.
00:55:13And the prayers and the petitions of the people who are dying and suffering on Earth,
00:55:18who are living in this nightmarish dystopia on planet Earth,
00:55:25their petitions are coming before this Council and before the King.
00:55:29And the King decides, the King and his Council,
00:55:31decide that they're going to put a stop to the activity of the Watchers on the Earth.
00:55:35And what happens is this judgment comes forth, this very punitive judgment comes forth,
00:55:41in which the Watchers are to be bound in chains.
00:55:45And their offspring are going to be destroyed before a cataclysm destroys the Earth.
00:55:53And so the Watchers are bound in chains.
00:55:57And God dispatches some of the good guys to come and bind them in chains.
00:56:03But before they're imprisoned in what Peter calls Tartarus,
00:56:06in 2 Peter, in the New Testament, directly referencing this story from 1 Enoch,
00:56:12before they're bound in chains in the abyss in Tartarus,
00:56:15they're forced to behold the annihilation, the destruction of their beloved sons.
00:56:22So they have to watch as God incites the offspring of the Watchers into fratricide,
00:56:30into a civil war, a hybrid civil war, in which they utterly annihilate each other.
00:56:37And this is part of the judgment of the Watchers.
00:56:39They have to watch their offspring, the Nephilim, the giants, go to war with one another.
00:56:44And I don't envision this as big dumb giants clonking each other over the heads with clubs.
00:56:50This is a technological war.
00:56:53They're bringing into this conflict all of the technology and knowledge of their fathers, of the Watchers.
00:56:59They're bringing into battle the armaments forged from the knowledge of the Watchers.
00:57:07So I envision this much more like the ancient Sanskrit epics of India,
00:57:13in which you have these epic battles in which the gods and mortal men are locked in these bloody conflicts.
00:57:21And in the midst of these wars, you have these amazing advanced aerospace vehicles being deployed,
00:57:31which are called Vimanas in the Sanskrit epics.
00:57:35And these Vimanas are like warships, flying warships that are able to discharge what appears to be some sort of laser or missiles.
00:57:49And it's all very much, it's all described in lurid detail in Ramayana and the Mahabharata.
00:57:57And I think this is probably what this conflict between the offspring of the Watchers,
00:58:04this hybrid civil war that's unfolding between the various factions of giants on Earth look like.
00:58:11It looked like superhuman giants and their advanced technology fighting each other,
00:58:19but in the midst of this battle are also human beings who are also fighting on one side or the other,
00:58:26just like the Sanskrit epics, right?
00:58:29So something like that, in my estimation, is unfolding in this fratricidal conflict that's unfolding on planet Earth before the flood.
00:58:41And so the Watchers are witnessing their offspring kill each other,
00:58:46and this all happens as a prelude to the cataclysm of the flood,
00:58:55which is never actually described in the Book of Enoch, but it's coming in the background.
00:58:59You know it's coming, but it's never actually described in the historical narrative.
00:59:04But that's pretty much what brings the narrative to an end,
00:59:08is God chooses to preserve the line of Adam through Noah and some of the animal life on Earth and everything else is destroyed.
00:59:17According to the Book of Enoch, the Watchers descended in the days of Jared,
00:59:26and they remained on the Earth from Jared to Noah, to the flood of Noah.
00:59:37And depending how you calculate that, according to the Septuagint, you have something like 1250 years.
00:59:44That's if you interpret that genealogy in a linear way, as a linear calculation of time.
00:59:52It's over a thousand years from Jared to the flood.
01:00:00So that's over a thousand years that the Watchers had to intermingle with the human species,
01:00:08and that their offspring had to grow and prosper and propagate and dominate the Earth and build kingdoms.
01:00:15Because remember I said that the third motivation of the Watchers was to usurp dominion of the Earth
01:00:22through the agency of their hybrid offspring who were human enough to claim that dominion,
01:00:27to appropriate the authority of Adam on Earth.
01:00:30And so the Watchers were basically, the idea was to rule, to govern the Earth from behind the thrones of their hybrid sons,
01:00:39who would become the kings, and indeed they did.
01:00:41They did become the kings, and this is inferred.
01:00:44But what else can you call it?
01:00:46If the Watchers, if the giants are consuming all of the acquisitions of the land,
01:00:53in other words, everything is being brought to the giants,
01:00:56they're effectively dominating the human race.
01:01:01They're dominating the human populaces.
01:01:04And I think that that is an intimation, an allusion to the fact that they are actually ruling over the kingdoms of men,
01:01:17and indeed establishing their own kingdoms.
01:01:19And I believe the Watchers did exactly what Plato says that the gods did, the gods of the Greek pantheon.
01:01:25Plato says in the Critias dialogue, rather, Plato says that the gods allotted, they apportioned the Earth amongst themselves.
01:01:36It's the first thing they did.
01:01:38And we know that Poseidon took for his allotment, he took Atlantis, the region of Atlantis,
01:01:45and he established his kingdom.
01:01:47And then what does Poseidon do?
01:01:48After he's allotted his portion, and then he establishes his kingdom,
01:01:53and then what does he do?
01:01:55He marries a human woman, Plato.
01:01:58He copulates with her, and she gives birth to ten hybrid sons,
01:02:03who become the ten, and they're twins, so five sets of twins.
01:02:07They become the ten kings of Atlantis.
01:02:10And I think they were giants, and if we're to take that story literal,
01:02:14I think at the very least, that story is an allegory of the antediluvian world.
01:02:20And so I think the Watchers did the very same thing.
01:02:22They allotted the Earth among themselves,
01:02:25and they established what I call the empire of the gods, because it's effectively an empire.
01:02:32And each of these Watchers, their hybrid sons would have governed,
01:02:37would have been the kings of their respective realm.
01:02:42And this might have gone all over the world.
01:02:44And so you would have had, in my estimation, you would have had the gods walking among men,
01:02:49the Watchers, who were venerated as such, as gods, and temples were raised to them.
01:02:56And rather than there being just some idol to them,
01:02:58they would actually be sitting there receiving the adulation of their human subjects in these temples.
01:03:05And their sons, their hybrid sons, would be the kings, literally governing over the kingdoms.
01:03:13And I think we could expect that these would have been quite advanced,
01:03:17at least the knowledge that the Watchers had,
01:03:21that extraterrestrial advanced knowledge would have been deployed and employed in their kingdoms,
01:03:28but not to the commoner.
01:03:30I think that the common people would have been something like a Bronze Age civilization,
01:03:34and that fraternity of hybrid giants would have had advanced knowledge and technology,
01:03:40much like the movie Stargate,
01:03:43in which you have this advanced alien being who is masquerading as Ra, as the god Amun-Ra,
01:03:50with advanced technology.
01:03:52And his guards have these advanced flying machines, aerospace vehicles,
01:03:56and advanced staffs that shoot out projectiles.
01:04:00But the rest of the populace is like a Bronze Age Egyptian populace.
01:04:04I think something like that is an accurate view of the antediluvian world.
01:04:09So you have this fraternity of hybrid giants in possession of advanced technology and knowledge,
01:04:14but only them, and their moms, and their fathers, right?
01:04:19So this is what I call the empire of the gods.
01:04:23And you can imagine when those kingdoms go to war, what that would look like.
01:04:27Maybe even atomic-level armaments, like nuclear-type technology,
01:04:32but those type of weapons were deployed and wrought great destruction on the Earth.
01:04:37And maybe this is why, by the way.
01:04:39Why do we not find evidence of these advanced civilizations?
01:04:42Because they annihilated themselves.
01:04:45How much evidence would you find of our civilization in 10,000 years from now,
01:04:50if we had utterly annihilated ourselves with nuclear missiles?
01:04:55What kind of evidence would remain if we experienced a nuclear holocaust?
01:05:03And I'm not saying a bomb drops here and there.
01:05:06I'm saying every single major city is obliterated, right?
01:05:11Because that's the kind of war I think was happening.
01:05:13And then a global cataclysm washes all the debris away in the aftermath.
01:05:20And much of what happens here to the matter, to the material, to the structures, the buildings, the edifices,
01:05:30they're vaporized, they're melted.
01:05:33Explosive devices that we can't even, the destruction of which is beyond our imagination right now.
01:05:40Many times more.
01:05:41Like an antimatter bomb is many times more destructive than a nuclear warhead.
01:05:47Decimating, annihilating, vaporizing these kingdoms.
01:05:53These hybrid kingdoms.
01:05:54These kingdoms that are being governed by the offspring of the Watchers.
01:05:57The Nephilim kingdoms are being vaporized in a technological war using unimaginably destructive technologies.
01:06:07And then an unimaginably destructive cataclysm ensues in the aftermath.
01:06:16How much of that civilization should you expect to find 10,000 years later?
01:06:23The answer?
01:06:24Almost nothing.
01:06:26That's the answer.
01:06:28Almost nothing would be the answer.
01:06:31So, I think that would be one reason why we don't find much evidence of an advanced ancient civilization.
01:06:39Because they literally obliterated themselves.
01:06:43Right?
01:06:44And I believe that the cataclysm, the specific cataclysm that ensued,
01:06:51in my estimation, I could be wrong about this, this is my opinion,
01:06:55is what is known as the Younger Dryas Impact event.
01:06:59And basically the Younger Dryas Impact event happened at the end of the last ice age.
01:07:04Some 12,000 years ago, roughly.
01:07:08And it resulted from fragments of a comet breaking up in the atmosphere or in orbit around the Earth
01:07:16and pummeling the North American ice sheets.
01:07:22The Laurentide Ice Sheet in North America, for example,
01:07:25which covered most of North America at the end of the last ice age,
01:07:30was a mile to a couple miles deep in certain areas.
01:07:34And this is ice.
01:07:36This is solid ice.
01:07:37This is water.
01:07:38Fresh water in the form of ice.
01:07:40And when those fragments of this comet impact,
01:07:44each one of them is itself many times more explosive in destruction than an atomic bomb.
01:07:50And so it generates, it vaporizes everything in the impact zone, right?
01:07:56At ground zero.
01:07:57Vaporizes everything and suddenly melts the ice sheets.
01:08:05And so imagine all of that fresh water.
01:08:09Millions of cubic tons of fresh water pouring into the ocean.
01:08:16It would be tidal waves sweeping across the land masses and not just in North America.
01:08:22And then in concert with this, you have the, I think they call it the ejectile or the ejecta.
01:08:31The ejecta, I think it's called, of the superheated fragments of that comet
01:08:37just blasting off hundreds of miles away,
01:08:42landing in forests and just lighting them on fire.
01:08:46So you have extensive biomass burning all over the globe.
01:08:50At the same time, the sheets of ice are melting.
01:08:53It would have caused earthquakes, volcanic eruptions,
01:08:57tidal waves sweeping across the oceans.
01:09:00Utter destruction.
01:09:03The utter destruction.
01:09:06It's just absolute utter destruction on every land mass on planet Earth.
01:09:12Every continent is experiencing cataclysmic destruction.
01:09:15Any kind of civilization that lives on the shore of the ocean or on the bank of a river,
01:09:21gone, obliterated.
01:09:23It would have been totally flooded.
01:09:25Tidal waves washing it away.
01:09:28And ultimately the sea levels rose dramatically.
01:09:32And so this all in the wake potentially of a catastrophic, let's call it nuclear holocaust.
01:09:45Probably something even more destructive than nuclear and a different kind of technology.
01:09:50So envision that.
01:09:51You have what would amount to a nuclear holocaust followed by the Younger Dryas Impact event.
01:09:59The Earth being bombarded at the end of the last ice age with these fragments of this comet.
01:10:06Precipitating all of the calamitous things I just described.
01:10:10And more, by the way. And more.
01:10:12Because it would be followed by a nuclear winter of sorts.
01:10:15Which would blot out the sun.
01:10:17All of that debris going up in the atmosphere.
01:10:19Blotting out the sun for an extended period of time.
01:10:21What survives this?
01:10:24Only Noah and his family, basically.
01:10:27Through the providence of God.
01:10:29Now do other things survive?
01:10:31Potentially.
01:10:33But we know that Noah and his family were providentially delivered, carried through this cataclysm.
01:10:42So you can see my perspective of the antediluvian world is much different than you saw in your coloring books in Sunday school.
01:10:51And I believe that this is...
01:10:55Much of this story that I told from Enoch, a lot of it is literally the text.
01:11:02What's written.
01:11:03But then I have also what's inferred.
01:11:06I've been communicating what's inferred or intimated.
01:11:10And I think this gives us an insight into the antediluvian world.
01:11:15So in the wake of such utter destruction, what would you expect to find on Earth?
01:11:20What remnants of these events, of this antediluvian civilization would you expect to find?
01:11:26Only the megalithic foundations.
01:11:30That would be all that was left.
01:11:32The megalithic foundations.
01:11:35And that is precisely what we find all around the world.
01:11:38We find these massive megalithic constructions, edifices, that defy modern engineering capabilities in some cases.
01:11:50And that employ a level of masonry that is in some cases unrivaled on Earth.
01:12:00Such as the walls of Sacsayhuaman, Ollantaytambo in Peru.
01:12:04Ollantaytambo, the masonry represented in Ollantaytambo with these massive megalithic blocks is unparalleled anywhere in the modern world.
01:12:12We cannot duplicate it.
01:12:14And it's represented in Egypt.
01:12:16It's represented to some degree in the Sphinx itself.
01:12:18Which I think are very, very old.
01:12:21And it's represented in Baalbek.
01:12:24This antediluvian architecture.
01:12:28These megalithic foundations.
01:12:30Again, the only thing you should expect to find after a catastrophic war followed by a world-ending cataclysm.
01:12:41A catastrophic nuclear-type war followed by a world-ending global cataclysm.
01:12:49The big question on everybody's mind that I'm always asked is how do you have Nephilim in the post-diluvian world?
01:13:00How are their Nephilim giants still alive?
01:13:05And not just the spirits of the giants, the demons.
01:13:09But actual giants still roaming the Earth after the flood.
01:13:12That's the question that everybody wonders.
01:13:15And the answer to that question depends on how you view the flood.
01:13:20For one thing, there are several theories.
01:13:24The Bible is not explicit about this situation.
01:13:29About how we have post-flood Nephilim in the world.
01:13:33It doesn't explicitly tell us.
01:13:35So I think we have to make some guesses.
01:13:38Some logical inferences.
01:13:40As I said, it all depends on how you view the flood.
01:13:44There are three ways you can view the flood of Noah.
01:13:46And contrary to popular belief, all three are plausible within the biblical text.
01:13:55In other words, all three can be argued from the text.
01:13:59From just the text in Genesis.
01:14:02The first view is the most common, the most popular.
01:14:06Which is a global flood.
01:14:08When I say global flood, what I mean is every square inch of land on planet Earth is underwater.
01:14:14That means the top of Mount Everest is underwater.
01:14:17That's the global flood.
01:14:19That's the one that most Christians are familiar with.
01:14:22And assume is the correct biblical interpretation of the flood.
01:14:29The second proposition is what's known as a local flood.
01:14:36And the local flood theory proposes that there was a catastrophic flood.
01:14:45But it was localized to the Fertile Crescent area.
01:14:49That the known world to the biblical writers at the time, i.e., Mesopotamia.
01:14:58Was completely and utterly flooded.
01:15:01So that all of the mountaintops that they could see or the hills that they could see in their local region were utterly flooded.
01:15:10That is the local flood theory.
01:15:13The third proposition is one that I think I've invented.
01:15:19I've never heard anyone else propose it.
01:15:21But it's a middle ground between those two, between the two former theories.
01:15:28And I call this a global cataclysm.
01:15:32A flood that resulted or rather a flood that was a cataclysm in which there was catastrophic flooding all over the Earth.
01:15:50But not necessarily covering every square inch of water and not just localized to one region of the Earth.
01:15:57So that would be sort of in between the global flood and the local flood.
01:16:02Again what I call a global cataclysm.
01:16:07And I say cataclysm because the flood, in my view, a flood in this particular view are only one aspect of the cataclysm.
01:16:16Because it would all depend on where you live.
01:16:19You would have, as I said before, if it was the Younger Dryas impact that is the source of the Noahic flood.
01:16:28Then you would have all sorts of calamitous things unfolding on the Earth.
01:16:36If you lived in the impact zone then you vaporize.
01:16:40If you live underneath those sheets of ice, in other words if you live further south,
01:16:46then you're going to be washed away by tidal wave from all that water rushing down to the ocean.
01:16:51If you live in a heavily forested area that is affected by the ejecta, this molten ejecta from the impact,
01:17:00then you're going to be consumed in massive wildfires.
01:17:05If you live near fault lines, you're going to experience devastating earthquakes.
01:17:10So everybody is experiencing the cataclysm.
01:17:13If you live on a coastal region, on a river or a lake, you're going to be underwater.
01:17:18If you're living in proximity to the ocean or a river, you're going to be underwater.
01:17:24So that's why I call it a global cataclysm.
01:17:29Most people just think in terms of a flood.
01:17:31I'm thinking in terms of something much more dynamic and destructive than just water.
01:17:40And I believe every continent was experiencing catastrophic flooding,
01:17:47but not necessarily that every square inch of ground was under the water.
01:17:51And again, people are going to immediately protest and say,
01:17:55but doesn't the Bible say X, Y and Z?
01:17:57My answer, it depends.
01:17:59There are plenty of scholars who make a good hermeneutical argument for a local flood
01:18:07using the same words in Hebrew and with a very logical position on what those words are conveying.
01:18:19I would say just as convincing as anyone making an argument for the global flood.
01:18:27And that's important to keep in mind.
01:18:29Just because you haven't been exposed to that scholarship doesn't mean it doesn't exist.
01:18:34And a lot of people get very angry about this,
01:18:37because they assume that there's only one way to interpret certain texts, certain events.
01:18:43It's just not true. It's just not true.
01:18:46And again, there's a lot of good scholarship arguing for a local flood.
01:18:50And if a local flood is possible, then a global cataclysm is possible.
01:18:56So those are the three options, and there may be more.
01:18:59You have the global flood, every square inch under water.
01:19:02You have a local flood, a localized catastrophic flooding event.
01:19:06And then you have a global cataclysm, every square inch of the earth affected by cataclysm,
01:19:10but in different ways.
01:19:12Now, in the global flood scenario, you only have a possibility for survival on the ark,
01:19:21unless you're a fish, right?
01:19:24So all of the land creatures would be drowned, except for those that are on the ark.
01:19:29In a local flood scenario, then you have the profusion of life on earth,
01:19:37most of it being unaffected.
01:19:39And only that region, that particular region, being catastrophically affected by that cataclysm, by the flood.
01:19:50Still saving those individuals who are on the ark, because that's where they were living,
01:19:55and still being delivered through that flood in the manner that the Bible describes.
01:20:00And in the same way, if you have a global cataclysm, then you have opportunity for survival as well,
01:20:08outside of the ark.
01:20:10And again, everyone always immediately accuses me and others of denying the plain reading of the scriptures.
01:20:20It's just not so. That's not the case.
01:20:24You are reading an English translation of a particular interpretation.
01:20:30It's not the only interpretation in regard to the flood.
01:20:35And so it's simply, when people get up in arms about this, it's just a manifestation of ignorance.
01:20:43So I personally lean toward a global cataclysm.
01:20:50However, I'm perfectly willing to accept a global flood or a local flood.
01:20:56I'm open to all three possibilities, all three propositions are on the table.
01:21:01But I lean in the direction of a global cataclysm.
01:21:04So you can see now, depending on which of these options you choose,
01:21:08it will bear upon regarding how the Nephilim made it through the flood into the post-Diluvian world,
01:21:16into the post-flood world.
01:21:18Now, if you subscribe to a global flood, then you're really limited.
01:21:24The Nephilim would have had to do one of two things.
01:21:28They would have had to have some extraordinary way of surviving, like going underground maybe.
01:21:33The other option, which is probably perhaps, I would say, at least equally plausible,
01:21:38is the genes of the giants, the DNA of the giants were carried through the flood
01:21:45in the genomes of Noah's son's wives, or one of them.
01:21:51Specifically, Ham's wife, probably, based on what unfolds after the flood.
01:21:56And so that's a popular theory, that genetic stock, so to speak,
01:22:02that DNA information of the Nephilim came through the flood,
01:22:09literally carried in the genome of, let's say, Ham's wife, right?
01:22:17That's possible. I'm certainly open to that idea.
01:22:21Okay, so if you subscribe to a local flood, then the question is moot.
01:22:26Because if you weren't inhabiting that specific area that was flooded,
01:22:30then you would not have been eliminated, annihilated.
01:22:34And the same can be said of the global cataclysm hypothesis.
01:22:40So, take your pick. Or there may be other options.
01:22:45Now, one option that I reject is the notion of a second incursion.
01:22:52It's often referred to as the second incursion.
01:22:55The second incursion proposes that it happened again.
01:23:04The Genesis 6 type transgression, the Genesis 6 affair happened again.
01:23:10So, it seems like a very simple explanation for a lot of people.
01:23:14How do we get giants in the post-flood world?
01:23:17Angels did it again. They came down, they copulated with human women,
01:23:22and the same thing happened. I don't think so.
01:23:25Why don't I think so? Because the first event is so well attested.
01:23:29So well attested, so instrumental, so fundamental to Hebrew cosmology
01:23:34that it's unthinkable that the second incursion would be undocumented.
01:23:40And nowhere mentioned. Anywhere. Anywhere.
01:23:44There is no mention of a second incursion anywhere.
01:23:48And the first one is so well documented, it's so important in the minds of the ancient Hebrews
01:23:53to think that a second incursion would just be no big deal is ludicrous, in my mind.
01:24:00And also, the judgment on the watchers was so severe and apparent to the rest of the angels
01:24:06that I think it was an effective deterrent.
01:24:10So, I do not believe in a second incursion. There is no attestation anywhere.
01:24:15No textual attestation to a second incursion.
01:24:18You cannot find it anywhere within the Hebrew cosmological worldview.
01:24:28I don't even think that any such thing is suggested. I could be wrong about this.
01:24:32But I don't think anything like that is even suggested in the Second Temple tradition.
01:24:38And now people would say, well, didn't God intend to kill them all?
01:24:42So what? He failed?
01:24:43You cannot avoid the fact that the Nephilim appeared in the earth after the flood.
01:24:48One way or another.
01:24:50Universal story agrees with the record of every major culture of the ancient world
01:24:57in which the astonishingly consistent story is told of gods that descended from heaven
01:25:03and or came through spiral vortices to materialize in bodies of flesh.
01:25:09From Rome to Greece and before that to Egypt, Persia, Assyria, Babylonia, Sumer.
01:25:18The earliest records of civilization tell of the era when powerful beings known to the Hebrews as watchers
01:25:26and in the book of Genesis as the B'nei Ha'ilohim, the sons of God, mingled themselves with humans
01:25:32giving birth to part celestial, part terrestrial hybrids known as Nephilim.
01:25:39The Bible says this happened when men began to increase on earth and daughters were born to them.
01:25:45When the sons of God saw the women's beauty and they took wives from among them to sire their unusual offspring.
01:25:53I believe a record of this is recorded in Genesis 6-4 when it says there were giants in the earth in those days
01:26:01and also after that when the sons of God came in under the daughters of men and they bear children to them
01:26:08the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.
01:26:13A man named Denton's Productions walks alone, follows Christ and the path he's shown.
01:26:24In the night where shadows grow
01:26:30Battles, demons, flesh and bone
