According to the book of Enoch:
-Some of the fallen angels (Watchers/Grigori) mated with human women
-The offspring were the Giants/Nephilim
-The souls of the Nephilim are barred from entering heaven and so are bound to the earth. These are demons.
I like balance in my universe, but that doesn’t mean there necessarily is. My question: is there any ancient text to support the presence of “anti-Nephilim” creatures sired to human women by angels? Doesn’t sound too likely but hey, it’s a crazy old world.
Well, you could always use the book of Genesis which mentions the “sons of God” copulating with “daughters of men”. Sons of God can be translated as angels.
There is enough confusion over angels that it often isn’t clear which angels are fallen and which aren’t.
Samael is described as a fallen angel in some texts, while in others he is a servant of God; albeit one who handles God’s “wet work.” He’s sometimes said to have been the serpent in the Garden but is also sometimes said to have been the angel who stayed Abraham’s hand.
He apparently liked getting a little strange from human women, too. Adam should have given Samael a good horsewhipping…as Samael supposedly nailed both Lilith and Eve (siring Cain). Samael is a real dog, for there are other stories about him pouring the pork to human women.
So, to conclude, your demons and your anti-demons are one and the same.
Scumpup thanks for the lead on Samael (is that somehow related to what BigT was talking about?), that is marvelously relevant to my interests. And also for the reminder that, even though some are “fallen,” ALL angels are the creations of an omniscient being. That answers a lot of questions right there.
Yep. Samael, whether he is fallen or not, is identified as an angel. He’s known to copulate with women. “Sons of God” is sometimes construed to mean angels.
You might also want to read up on Samyaza; another angel with a taste for human women. His fallen status is more definite than Samael’s.
