Nephalem

Nephalem are, the most simplest term, abominations. They possess both grace and miasma, born of both heaven and hell, and their nature is both angelic and demonic. Yet, they are neither of the two. Some nephalem chose their angelic parents, some chose their demonic ones, but the majority chose to be neutral. And that caused many to fear them. For that neutrality alone is much more dangerous than any side.

Don't mess with Nephalem they're dangerous

Get the Nephalem mug.

nephalim

Nephalim are children from the union of 'the sons of God' (YHWH) and daughters of men. The word is the plural, the logical singular would perhaps be Nephal? (Seraph -> Seraphim, Cherub -> Cherubim, etc...).

This definition could be much improved by someone with a working knowledge of rabbinical tradition.

Gen 6:4 - The Nephilim were on the earth in those days - and also afterward - when the sons of God went to the daughters of men and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.

Nephalim

Nephalim were the offspring of fallen angels and human women. Gen 6:2 "Sons of God" in Hebrew is "Bene HaElohim"which means that which God has directly created - only angels and Adam were created directly by God. "Daughters of man" in Hebrew is "benoth adam" which is that these were descendants of Adam. Important to understand that the "sons of God" are not human. See Jude 24,25 for further reference.

The Nephilim were considered to be giants, incredibly strong and tall and often feature in heroic tales. Goliath and his 4 brothers were considered Nephilim - Altas and Hercules also bear the same trademarks

"Nephalim were on the earth in those days...They were the heroes of old, men of reknown"
