THE WHY – Behind, The Dispossession Of THESE People, AFTER THE FLOOD!




Genesis 6:4

THERE WERE GIANTS (The Nephilim, OR The Fallen Ones, OR The Mighty Ones), ON THE EARTH – IN THOSE DAYS, AND ALSO – AFTERWARD (AFTER THE GREAT FLOOD) . . .  THOSE (The Giants, OR The Nephilim, OR The Fallen Ones, OR The Mighty Ones) – WERE, THE MIGHTY MEN – WHO WERE Of OLD – MEN Of RENOWN!

Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty; IF The Giants Were Destroyed, With THE GREAT FLOOD; How Did They Exist – AFTER THE GREAT FLOOD?

Genesis 6:9b

NOAH WAS A JUST MAN – PERFECT – IN HIS GENERATIONS (i.e. NO Mixing Of Fallen Angels – With ANY Of HIS Ancestors)!

Folks, With All Likelihood, The Fallen Angels, Mixing With, The Daughters Of Men, Genetic Material (i.e. DNA), Probably, Continued On, THROUGH The Wives Of The Sons Of Noah: Shem, Ham, And Japheth; And Since, The Land Of Canaanites, IS The Land, GOD Almighty PROMISED – TO Abraham, And His Descendants; We Will Concentrate Our Focus, THERE!

Genesis 9:18-19

Now, The Sons Of Noah, Who Went Out Of THE ARK, WERE: Shem, Ham, And Japheth!  And Ham – WAS, The Father Of Canaan!  THESE THREE – WERE, The Sons Of Noah; And From THESE – The Whole Earth Was Populated!

Question: Why Point Out, That Ham, Was The Father Of Canaan?

Genesis 9:20-23

And Noah Began – TO BE A Farmer; And He (Noah) Planted A Vineyard!  THEN, He (Noah) Drank Of The Wine, And Was Drunk, And Became Uncovered, In His Tent!  And Ham, The Father Of Canaan, Saw The Nakedness Of His Father (Noah), And Told His Two Brothers – Outside!  BUT, Shem And Japheth, Took A Garment, Laid IT – On Both Their Shoulders; And Went Backward, And Covered – The Nakedness Of Their Father (Noah)!  Their Faces – WERE Turned Away; And They Did NOT See – Their Father’s (Noah’s) Nakedness!

SO, Noah Awoke, From His Wine, And Knew, What His Younger Son (Ham) Had Done To Him!  THEN, He (Noah) Said: “CURSED – BE CANAAN; A Servant Of Servants, He (Canaan) Shall Be – To His Brethren!”

Question: Why Did Ham, Go Into His Father’s (Noah’s) Tent, In The First Place?  Answer: I Do NOT Know!  BUT, IT Was Probably NOT – For A Good Reason!  And Why Did Noah, CURSE Ham’s Son – Canaan, And NOT Ham, Himself?  Answer: Again, I Do NOT Know!  BUT, IT IS Curious!

Genesis 10:1, 6-20

NOW THIS – IS The Genealogy Of The Sons Of Noah: Shem, Ham, And Japheth!  And Sons Were Born To Them – AFTER THE FLOOD!

The Sons Of Ham – WERE: Cush, Mizraim, Put, And Canaan!  The Sons Of Cush – WERE: Seba, Havilah, Sabtah, Raamah, And Sabtechah; And The Sons Of Raamah – WERE: Sheba and Dedan!

Cush Begot Nimrod (Meaning, To Rebel); He (Nimrod) Began, To Be A Mighty One (Rebelling AGAINST GOD Almighty) – On The Earth!  He (Nimrod) Was – A Mighty Hunter (Of Men, i.e. Mankind – Cannibalism) – Before (aka AGAINST) THE LORD (GOD Almighty); Therefore, IT IS Said, “Like Nimrod, The Mighty Hunter (Of Men, i.e. Mankind – Cannibalism) – Before (aka AGAINST) THE LORD (GOD Almighty)!”  And The Beginning Of His (Nimrod’s) Kingdom – WAS Babel, Erech, Accad, And Calneh – IN The Land Of Shinar!  From THAT Land, He (Nimrod) Went To Assyria, And Built: Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah, And Resen, Between Nineveh And Calah (THAT IS – The Principal City)!

Mizraim Begot Ludim, Anamim, Lehabim, Naphtuhim, Pathrusim, And Casluhim (From Whom, Came – The Philistines And Caphtorim)!

Canaan Begot Sidon, His Firstborn, And Heth; The Jebusite, The Amorite, And The Girgashite; The Hivite, The Arkite, And The Sinite; The Arvadite, The Zemarite, And The Hamathite!  Afterward, The Families Of The Canaanites – Were Dispersed!  And The Border Of The Canaanites, Was From Sidon, As YOU Go, Toward Gerar, As Far As, Gaza; THEN, As YOU Go, Toward Sodom, Gomorrah, Admah, And Zeboiim, As Far As, Lasha!  THESE – WERE The Sons Of Ham, According To Their Families, According To Their Languages – IN Their Lands, AND IN Their Nations!

A Quick Genealogy Lesson:

Adam (0000-0930) – Seth (0130-1042) – Enosh (0235-1140) – Cainan (0325-1235) – Mahalalel (0395-1290) – Jared (0460-1422) – Enoch (0622-0987) – Methuselah (0687-1656) – Lamech (0874-1651) – Noah (1056-2006) – Shem (1558-2158) – Arphaxad (1658-2096) – Salah (1693-2126) – Eber (1723-2187) – Peleg (1757-1996) – Reu (1787-2026) – Serug (1819-2049) – Nahor (1849-1997) – Terah (1878-2083) – Abram/Abraham (1948-2123) – Isaac (2048-2228) – Jacob/Israel (2108-2255)

[22 Generations Of Mankind]  [Note: THE GREAT FLOOD – 1656]

Now, Let Me Stop HERE, And Say THIS; The Old Testament, IS FILLED, With The Children Of Israel, DESTROYING Nations, As They Moved Into – THE PROMISED LAND; BUT, Have YOU Ever Thought About – The Why?  Why Did GOD Almighty Have The Children Of Israel DESTROY – THESE Particular People?  Was IT, Just Because, GOD Almighty Wanted The Children Of Israel – TO POSSESS THIS LAND; OR Was IT – For A Specific Reason?  WHO WERE (OR Should I Say, WHAT WERE), The People, Who Lived, IN THE PROMISED LAND, BEFORE The Children Of Israel, DISPOSSESSED THEM?

So, Just How Tall Were The Amorite Giants?

Amos 2:9-10

THUS SAYS, THE LORD (GOD Almighty): “YET, IT WAS I (GOD Almighty), WHO DESTROYED THE AMORITE, BEFORE THEM; WHOSE HEIGHT – WAS LIKE, THE HEIGHT Of THE CEDARS; AND HE (The Amorite) – WAS AS STRONG, AS THE OAKS; YET, I (GOD Almighty) DESTROYED HIS FRUIT – ABOVE, AND HIS ROOTS – BENEATH!  ALSO, IT WAS I (GOD Almighty), WHO BROUGHT YOU UP – FROM THE LAND Of EGYPT; AND LED YOU, FORTY YEARS – THROUGH THE WILDERNESS; TO POSSESS THE LAND Of THE AMORITE!”

[Note: Cedar Trees Could Grow, As Tall As – 80 Cubits OR 120 Feet]

Next, A Battle Of Four (4) Kings – AGAINST Giants!

Genesis 14:5-7

IN The Fourteenth (14th) Year, Chedorlaomer (King Of Elam), AND The Kings, That WERE – WITH Him (Amraphel, King Of Shinar, Arioch, King Of Ellasar, And Tidal, King Of Nations; i.e. Four Kings, In All); CAME AND ATTACKED – The Rephaim, IN Ashteroth Karnaim, The Zuzim, IN Ham, The Emim, IN Shaveh Kiriathaim, And The Horites, IN Their Mountain Of Seir – As Far As, El Paran; Which IS, By The Wilderness!  THEN, They (Chedorlaomer And The Kings, With Him) Turned Back, And Came, To En Mishpat (THAT IS, Kadesh), AND ATTACKED – All The Country Of The Amalekites, And Also, The Amorites, Who Dwelt, IN Hazezon Tamar!

That’s Right, The Rephaim, The Zuzim, The Emim, The Horites, The Amalekites, And The Amorites – WERE Giants (The Nephilim, OR The Fallen Ones, OR The Mighty Ones)!

Abram (aka Abraham) Has Giant Allies!

Genesis 14:13

THEN One, Who Had Escaped, Came And Told Abram (aka Abraham), The Hebrew; For He (Abram, aka Abraham) Dwelt, By The Terebinth Trees Of Mamre – The Amorite (i.e. The Nephilim OR The Giants), Brother Of Eshcol, And Brother Of Aner; And They (Mamre, Eshcol, And Aner) WERE Allies – With Abram (aka Abraham)!

NEXT, GOD Almighty MAKES A COVENANT – WITH ABRAM (aka Abraham)!

Genesis 15:18-21

ON THE SAME DAY, THE LORD (GOD Almighty) MADE A COVENANT, WITH ABRAM (aka Abraham), SAYING: “TO YOUR DESCENDANTS – I (GOD Almighty) HAVE GIVEN – THIS LAND; FROM THE RIVER Of EGYPT – TO THE GREAT RIVER – THE RIVER, EUPHRATES — THE KENITES, THE KENEZZITES, THE KADMONITES, THE HITTITES, THE PERIZZITES, THE REPHAIM, THE AMORITES, THE CANAANITES, THE GIRGASHITES, AND THE JEBUSITES!”

GOD Almighty – COMES AND DELIVERS – The Children Of Israel!

Exodus 3:7-8

AND THE LORD (GOD Almighty) SAID: “I (GOD Almighty) HAVE SURELY SEEN – THE OPPRESSION Of MY PEOPLE (The Children Of Israel), WHO ARE, IN EGYPT; AND HAVE HEARD THEIR CRY, BECAUSE Of THEIR TASKMASTERS; FOR I (GOD Almighty) KNOW – THEIR SORROWS!  SO, I (GOD Almighty) HAVE COME DOWN – TO DELIVER THEM (The Children Of Israel) – OUT Of THE HAND Of THE EGYPTIANS; AND TO BRING THEM UP, FROM THAT LAND, TO A GOOD AND LARGE LAND; TO A LAND, FLOWING, WITH MILK AND HONEY; TO THE PLACE Of THE CANAANITES, AND THE HITTITES, AND THE AMORITES, AND THE PERIZZITES, AND THE HIVITES, AND THE JEBUSITES (i.e. The Land Of Giants)!”

Finally, The Children Of Israel – BEGIN Their Quest; TO TAKE – The Land Of Canaan!

Numbers 13:1-2, 21-23a, 27-29, 32-33

AND THE LORD (GOD Almighty) SPOKE TO MOSES, SAYING, “SEND MEN, TO SPY OUT – THE LAND Of CANAAN; WHICH, I (GOD Almighty) AM GIVING – TO THE CHILDREN Of ISRAEL; FROM EACH TRIBE Of THEIR FATHERS – YOU SHALL SEND A MAN; EVERY ONE – A LEADER, AMONG THEM!”

SO, They Went Up, And Spied Out – The Land; From The Wilderness Of Zin, As Far As Rehob, Near The Entrance Of Hamath!  And They Went Up, Through The South, And Came To Hebron; Ahiman, Sheshai, And Talmai, The Descendants Of Anak – WERE THERE! (Now, Hebron, Was Built Seven Years, Before, Zoan, IN Egypt!)  THEN, They Came, To The Valley Of Eshcol; And THERE, Cut Down A Branch, With One Cluster Of Grapes; They Carried IT (The Cluster Of Grapes), Between Two Of Them, On A Pole!

THEN, They Told Him (Moses), And Said: “We Went To The Land, Where YOU Sent Us!  IT Truly Flows, With Milk And Honey (i.e. Has An Abundance Of Food), AND THIS – IS ITS FRUIT!  Nevertheless, The People Who Dwell, In The Land – ARE Strong; The Cities – ARE Fortified, AND Very Large; Moreover, We Saw The Descendants Of Anak (Ahiman, Sheshai, And Talmai) – THERE!  The Amalekites Dwell – IN The Land Of The South; The Hittites, The Jebusites, And The Amorites Dwell – IN The Mountains; And The Canaanites Dwell – By The Sea, And Along The Banks Of The Jordan!”

And They (Except, Joshua And Caleb) Gave, The Children Of Israel, A Bad Report Of The Land, Which They Had Spied Out, Saying, “The Land, Through Which, We Have Gone, As Spies – IS A Land, That Devours Its Inhabitants (i.e. Mankind – Cannibalism); And All The People, Whom We Saw In IT – ARE MEN Of GREAT STATURE!  THERE, We Saw The Giants (The Nephilim, OR The Fallen Ones, OR The Mighty Ones) – The Descendants Of Anak, Came From – The Giants (The Nephilim); And We Were, Like Grasshoppers (i.e. As Mere Insects) – IN Our Own Sight; And So, We Were (i.e. As Mere Insects) – IN Their Sight!”

Deuteronomy 2:1, 10-12, 20-23

“THEN, We (The Children Of Israel) Turned, And Journeyed – Into The Wilderness Of The Way Of The Red Sea; AS, THE LORD (GOD Almighty) SPOKE TO ME (Moses); And We Skirted (Circled Around) Mount Seir, For Many Days!”

“The Emim, Had Dwelt There (The Wilderness Of Moab), IN Times Past; A People, As Great, And Numerous, And Tall – As The Anakim!  They (The Emim) Were Also Regarded, As Giants (Rephaim), Like The Anakim; BUT, The Moabites, Call Them – Emim!  The Horites, Formerly Dwelt, IN Seir; BUT, The Descendants Of Esau, Dispossessed Them, And Destroyed Them, From Before Them (The Descendants Of Esau), And Dwelt, IN Their Place; Just As, Israel Did, To The Land Of Their Possession, Which THE LORD (GOD Almighty) – GAVE Them!”

“THAT (The Land Of The People Of Ammon), Was Also Regarded – As A Land Of Giants (Rephaim); Giants Formerly Dwelt – THERE!  BUT, The Ammonites, Call Them – Zamzummim; A People, As Great, And Numerous, And Tall – As The Anakim!  BUT, THE LORD (GOD Almighty) DESTROYED Them, Before Them (The Ammonites), And They Dispossessed Them, And Dwelt, IN Their Place; Just As, HE (GOD Almighty) HAD DONE – For The Descendants Of Esau, Who Dwelt, IN Seir; WHEN, HE (GOD Almighty) DESTROYED The Horites, From Before Them (The Descendants Of Esau)!  They Dispossessed Them, And Dwelt, IN Their Place; Even, To THIS Day!  And The Avim, Who Dwelt, IN Villages, As Far As Gaza — The Caphtorim, Who Came From Caphtor, Destroyed Them, And Dwelt, IN Their Place!”

Deuteronomy 2:24-25, 30-33, 36

“AND THE LORD (GOD Almighty) SPOKE TO ME (Moses), SAYING: ‘RISE, TAKE YOUR JOURNEY, AND CROSS OVER – THE RIVER ARNON!  LOOK, I (GOD Almighty) HAVE GIVEN, INTO YOUR HAND – SIHON, THE AMORITE, KING Of HESHBON, AND HIS LAND!  BEGIN TO POSSESS IT, AND ENGAGE HIM, IN BATTLE!  THIS DAY – I (GOD Almighty) WILL BEGIN TO PUT – THE DREAD AND FEAR Of YOU (The Children Of Israel) – UPON THE NATIONS, UNDER THE WHOLE HEAVEN (i.e. Everywhere, Under The Heavens); WHO SHALL HEAR – THE REPORT Of YOU; AND SHALL TREMBLE, AND BE – IN ANGUISH, BECAUSE Of YOU!’”

“BUT, Sihon, King Of Heshbon, Would NOT Let Us (The Children Of Israel), Pass Through; For THE LORD, YOUR GOD (GOD Almighty) – Hardened His Spirit, And Made His Heart – Obstinate; THAT, HE (GOD Almighty) MIGHT DELIVER Him (Sihon) – Into Your Hand; AS IT IS, THIS DAY!  AND THE LORD (GOD Almighty) SAID TO ME (Moses), ‘SEE, I (GOD Almighty) HAVE BEGUN – TO GIVE SIHON, AND HIS LAND, OVER TO YOU (The Children Of Israel)!  BEGIN TO POSSESS IT; THAT, YOU MAY INHERIT HIS LAND!’  THEN, Sihon, And All His People, Came Out – Against Us (The Children Of Israel), To Fight, At Jahaz!  AND THE LORD, OUR GOD (GOD Almighty) DELIVERED Him (Sihon) – Over To Us; SO, We Defeated Him (Sihon), His Sons, And All His People!”

“From Aroer, Which IS, On The Bank Of The River Arnon; And FROM The City, THAT IS – IN The Ravine, As Far As – Gilead; There Was NOT One City, Too Strong, For Us (The Children Of Israel); THE LORD, OUR GOD (GOD Almighty) DELIVERED ALL – TO Us!”

[More About, The Defeat Of King Sihon, See: Numbers 21:21-32]

Deuteronomy 3:1-5, 8-11, 13, 21-22

“THEN, We (The Children Of Israel) Turned, And Went Up The Road – To Bashan; And Og, King Of Bashan, Came Out – Against Us; He (Og), And All His People – To Battle, At Edrei!  AND THE LORD (GOD Almighty) SAID TO ME (Moses), ‘DO NOT FEAR HIM (Og); FOR I (GOD Almighty) HAVE DELIVERED HIM (Og), AND ALL HIS PEOPLE, AND HIS LAND – INTO YOUR HAND; YOU SHALL DO TO HIM (Og) – AS YOU DID, TO SIHON, KING Of THE AMORITES; WHO DWELT – AT HESHBON!’”

“SO, THE LORD, OUR GOD (GOD Almighty), ALSO, DELIVERED – Into Our Hands – Og, King Of Bashan, With All His People; And We Attacked Him (Og) – Until He Had – NO Survivors, Remaining!  And We Took – All His Cities, At That Time; There Was NOT A City, Which We Did NOT Take – From Them: Sixty (60) Cities – All The Region Of Argob, The Kingdom Of Og, IN Bashan!  All These Cities – WERE Fortified, With High Walls, Gates, And Bars; Besides, A Great Many Rural Towns!”

“AND AT THAT TIME, We (The Children Of Israel) Took The Land – From The Hand Of The Two Kings Of The Amorites (Sihon, King Of Heshbon, AND Og, King Of Bashan); WHO WERE – On THIS Side Of The Jordan; FROM The River Arnon – TO Mount Hermon (The Sidonians, Call Hermon – Sirion; AND The Amorites, Call IT – Senir); All The Cities Of The Plain, All Gilead, AND All Bashan; As Far As, Salcah AND Edrei – Cities Of The Kingdom Of Og, IN Bashan!”

“For ONLY Og, King Of Bashan, Remained – Of The Remnant Of The Giants (The Rephaim)!  Indeed, His Bedstead – WAS An Iron Bedstead! (IS IT NOT, IN Rabbah, Of The People Of Ammon?) Nine (9) Cubits (About 13-1/2 Feet) – IS Its Length, AND Four (4) Cubits (About 6 Feet) – Its Width, According To The Standard Cubit!”

“The Rest Of Gilead, And All Bashan, The Kingdom Of Og, I (Moses) Gave – To Half The Tribe Of Manasseh! (All The Region Of Argob, With All Bashan, Was Called – The Land Of The Giants (The Rephaim)!”

“And I (Moses) Commanded Joshua, At That Time, Saying, ‘Your Eyes, Have Seen All, THAT THE LORD, YOUR GOD (GOD Almighty) HAS DONE, To THESE Two Kings; SO, WILL THE LORD (GOD Almighty) DO – To All The Kingdoms, Through Which, YOU Pass!  YOU (Joshua) Must NOT Fear Them; FOR THE LORD, YOUR GOD (GOD Almighty), HIMSELF – FIGHTS FOR YOU!’”

[More About, The Defeat Of King Og, SEE: Numbers 21:33-35]

Deuteronomy 7:1-2

“WHEN, THE LORD, YOUR GOD (GOD Almighty), BRINGS YOU – Into The Land, Which YOU Go To Possess; And Has CAST OUT Many Nations, Before YOU – The Hittites, And The Girgashites, And The Amorites, And The Canaanites, And The Perizzites, And The Hivites, And The Jebusites; Seven Nations, Greater And Mightier, Than YOU; AND WHEN, THE LORD, YOUR GOD (GOD Almighty) DELIVERS Them – Over To YOU; YOU Shall CONQUER Them, AND UTTERLY DESTROY Them!  YOU Shall Make NO Covenant – With Them; NOR Show Mercy – To Them!  NOR Shall YOU Make Marriages – With Them!  YOU Shall NOT Give Your Daughter – To THEIR Son; NOR Take THEIR Daughter – For Your Son!  FOR THEY WILL TURN YOUR SONS AWAY – FROM FOLLOWING ME (GOD Almighty) – TO SERVE Other gods; SO, THE ANGER Of THE LORD (GOD Almighty) WILL BE AROUSED – AGAINST YOU, AND DESTROY YOU – SUDDENLY!  BUT THUS, YOU Shall Deal – With Them: YOU Shall DESTROY – Their Altars, AND BREAK DOWN – Their SACRED Pillars, AND CUT DOWN – Their Wooden Images (Of Canaanite Deities), AND BURN – Their Carved Images, With Fire!”

Deuteronomy 9:1-3

“HEAR, O ISRAEL: YOU – ARE TO CROSS OVER THE JORDAN, TODAY; AND GO IN – TO DISPOSSESS NATIONS, GREATER AND MIGHTIER, THAN YOURSELF; CITIES, GREAT AND FORTIFIED – UP TO HEAVEN; A PEOPLE, GREAT AND TALL – THE DESCENDANTS Of THE ANAKIM; WHOM, YOU KNOW, AND Of WHOM, YOU HEARD – IT SAID, ‘WHO CAN STAND BEFORE – THE DESCENDANTS Of ANAK?’  THEREFORE, UNDERSTAND TODAY – THAT, THE LORD, YOUR GOD (GOD Almighty) – IS HE, WHO GOES OVER, BEFORE YOU – AS A CONSUMING FIRE!  HE (GOD Almighty) WILL DESTROY THEM, AND BRING THEM DOWN, BEFORE YOU; SO, YOU SHALL DRIVE THEM OUT, AND DESTROY THEM, QUICKLY – AS THE LORD (GOD Almighty) HAS SAID TO YOU!”

Joshua 11:16-17a, 19, 21-22

Thus, Joshua Took – All THIS Land: The Mountain Country, All The South, All The Land Of Goshen, The Lowland, And The Jordan Plain (aka Arabah) — The Mountains Of Israel, And Its Lowlands; From Mount Halak (aka The Smooth OR Bald Mountain) And The Ascent To Seir; Even, As Far As, Baal Gad – IN The Valley Of Lebanon, Below Mount Hermon!  There Was NOT A City, That Made Peace – With The Children Of Israel; Except, The Hivites – The Inhabitants Of Gibeon!

AND AT THAT TIME – Joshua Came, And Cut Off – The Anakim, From The Mountains: From Hebron, From Debir, From Anab, From All The Mountains Of Judah, And From All The Mountains Of Israel; Joshua UTTERLY DESTROYED Them – With Their Cities!  None Of The Anakim Were Left – IN The Land Of The Children Of Israel; They (The Anakim) Remained ONLY – IN Gaza, IN Gath, And IN Ashdod!

Joshua 12:7-8

AND THESE – ARE The Kings Of The Country, Which Joshua, And The Children Of Israel Conquered – On THIS Side Of The Jordan; On The West, From Baal Gad – IN The Valley Of Lebanon, As Far As – Mount Halak (The Bald Mountain), And The Ascent To Seir, Which Joshua Gave – To The Tribes Of Israel – AS A POSSESSION, According To Their Divisions; IN The Mountain Country, IN The Lowlands, IN THE JORDAN PLAIN, IN The Slopes, IN The Wilderness, And IN The South — The Hittites, The Amorites, The Canaanites, The Perizzites, The Hivites, And The Jebusites (i.e. The Giants)!

[Note: Joshua 12:9-24 Gives, A Detailed List Of The Kings.]

Joshua 13:1-7

NOW, JOSHUA WAS OLD, ADVANCED IN YEARS!  AND THE LORD (GOD Almighty) SAID TO HIM: “YOU ARE OLD, ADVANCED IN YEARS; AND THERE REMAINS, VERY MUCH LAND – YET, TO BE POSSESSED!  THIS, IS THE LAND, THAT YET – REMAINS: ALL THE TERRITORY Of THE PHILISTINES; AND ALL, THAT Of THE GESHURITES, FROM SIHOR, WHICH IS, EAST Of EGYPT, AS FAR AS, THE BORDER Of EKRON, NORTHWARD (WHICH IS COUNTED, AS CANAANITE); THE FIVE LORDS Of THE PHILISTINES — THE GAZITES, THE ASHDODITES, THE ASHKELONITES, THE GITTITES, AND THE EKRONITES; ALSO, THE AVITES; FROM THE SOUTH – ALL THE LAND Of THE CANAANITES, AND MEARAH, THAT BELONGS – TO THE SIDONIANS, AS FAR AS APHEK – TO THE BORDER Of THE AMORITES; THE LAND Of THE GEBALITES (aka Giblites), AND ALL LEBANON, TOWARD THE SUNRISE; FROM BAAL GAD, BELOW MOUNT HERMON, AS FAR AS, THE ENTRANCE TO HAMATH; ALL THE INHABITANTS Of THE MOUNTAINS, FROM LEBANON, AS FAR AS, THE BROOK MISREPHOTH (i.e. Burnings Of Water), AND ALL THE SIDONIANS — THEM, I (GOD Almighty) WILL DRIVE OUT – FROM BEFORE, THE CHILDREN Of ISRAEL; ONLY DIVIDE IT, BY LOT – TO ISRAEL, AS AN INHERITANCE; AS, I (GOD Almighty) HAVE COMMANDED YOU!  NOW THEREFORE, DIVIDE THIS LAND – AS AN INHERITANCE, TO THE NINE TRIBES, AND HALF THE TRIBE Of MANASSEH!”

Joshua 15:13-14

NOW, To Caleb, The Son Of Jephunneh, He (Joshua) Gave A Share, Among The Children Of Judah; According To The Commandment Of THE LORD (GOD Almighty) – TO Joshua; NAMELY – Kirjath Arba, Which IS – Hebron (ARBA – WAS, The Father Of Anak; AND ARBA – WAS, The Greatest Man, Among The Anakim)!  Caleb Drove Out – The Three Sons Of Anak, From THERE (Hebron): Sheshai, Ahiman, And Talmai – The Children Of Anak!

Joshua 24:11-13

And Joshua Said To All The People, “THUS, SAYS THE LORD, GOD Of ISRAEL: ‘THEN, YOU Went Over The Jordan, And Came To Jericho!  And The Men Of Jericho – Fought Against YOU — ALSO, The Amorites, The Perizzites, The Canaanites, The Hittites, The Girgashites, The Hivites, And The Jebusites (i.e. The Giants)!  BUT, I (GOD Almighty) DELIVERED Them – Into Your Hand!  I (GOD Almighty) SENT THE HORNET – BEFORE YOU; WHICH DROVE THEM OUT, FROM BEFORE YOU; ALSO, The Two Kings Of The Amorites (Sihon, King Of Heshbon, AND Og, King Of Bashan); BUT, NOT With Your Sword, OR With Your Bow (i.e. BY THE HAND Of GOD Almighty)!  I (GOD Almighty) HAVE GIVEN YOU – A LAND, For Which, YOU Did NOT Labor, And Cities, Which YOU Did NOT Build, And YOU Dwell – IN Them; YOU Eat Of The Vineyards, And Olive Groves, Which YOU Did NOT Plant!’”

AND Even Afterwards, The Children Of Israel, Still Had To Deal – With Giants!

1 Samuel 17:4-7, 40, 45-46a, 49-51, 54

And A Champion, Went Out, From The Camp Of The Philistines – Named Goliath, From Gath; Whose Height – WAS Six (6) Cubits AND A Span (About 9-3/4 Feet)!  HE (Goliath) HAD – A Bronze Helmet – On His Head; And He (Goliath) – WAS Armed, With A Coat Of Mail; And The Weight Of The Coat – WAS Five Thousand (5,000) Shekels Of Bronze!  And HE (Goliath) HAD Bronze Armor – On His Legs; And A Bronze Javelin – Between His Shoulders!  NOW, The Staff Of His Spear – WAS Like, A Weaver’s Beam; And His Iron Spearhead – WEIGHED Six Hundred (600) Shekels; And A Shield-Bearer Went Before Him!

THEN, He (David) Took His Staff – IN His Hand; And He Chose, For Himself – Five (5) Smooth Stones, From The Brook; And Put Them, IN A Shepherd’s Bag, IN A Pouch, Which He Had; And His Sling Was – IN His Hand!  And He (David) Drew Near – To The Philistine (Goliath)!

THEN, DAVID SAID, TO THE PHILISTINE (Goliath), “YOU COME TO ME, WITH A SWORD, WITH A SPEAR, AND WITH A JAVELIN!  BUT, I (David) COME TO YOU – IN THE NAME Of THE LORD Of HOSTS, THE GOD Of THE ARMIES Of ISRAEL; WHOM, YOU HAVE DEFIED!  THIS DAY – THE LORD (GOD Almighty) WILL DELIVER YOU – INTO MY HAND, AND I WILL STRIKE YOU, AND TAKE YOUR HEAD – FROM YOU!”

THEN, David Put His Hand – IN His Bag, And Took Out – A Stone; And He (David) – SLUNG IT, AND STRUCK The Philistine (Goliath) – IN His Forehead; So That, THE STONE SANK – Into His (Goliath’s) Forehead, And He Fell – On His Face, To The Earth!  SO, David Prevailed – Over The Philistine (Goliath), With A Sling, And A Stone; And Struck The Philistine (Goliath) – And Killed Him!  BUT, THERE WAS NO Sword – IN The Hand Of David!  Therefore, David Ran, And Stood Over – The Philistine; Took His (Goliath’s) Sword, And Drew IT, Out Of Its Sheath; And Killed Him, And Cut Off His (Goliath’s) Head – With IT!  And When The Philistines Saw, That Their Champion, (Goliath), Was Dead – They Fled!  And David Took – The Head Of The Philistine (Goliath), And Brought IT – To Jerusalem; BUT, He (David) Put His (Goliath’s) Armor – IN His Tent!

2 Samuel 21:15-22

WHEN, The Philistines, Were At War, Again, With Israel; David And His Servants, With Him, Went Down, And Fought – Against The Philistines; AND David Grew Faint!  THEN, Ishbi-Benob, WHO WAS – One Of The Sons Of The Giant (Raphah); The Weight, Of Whose, Bronze Spear – WAS THREE HUNDRED (300) SHEKELS; Who Was Bearing – A NEW SWORD; Thought, He Could Kill David!  BUT, Abishai, The Son Of Zeruiah – Came To His (David’s) Aid; And Struck The Philistine, And Killed Him!  THEN, The Men Of David, Swore To Him, Saying, “YOU (David) SHALL GO OUT, NO MORE, WITH Us – TO BATTLE; LEST, YOU QUENCH – THE LAMP Of ISRAEL!”

NOW IT HAPPENED, AFTERWARD; THAT, There Was Again, A Battle, With The Philistines, At Gob!  THEN, Sibbechai, The Hushathite, Killed Saph (aka Sippai); WHO WAS – One Of The Sons Of The Giant (Raphah)!

AGAIN, There Was War, At Gob, With The Philistines; Where, Elhanan, The Son Of Jaare-Oregim (aka Jair), The Bethlehemite, Killed (Lahmi) – THE BROTHER Of Goliath, The Gittite; The Shaft Of Whose Spear – WAS Like, A Weaver’s Beam.

YET AGAIN, There Was War, At Gath; Where, There Was A Man Of GREAT Stature; WHO HAD SIX (6) FINGERS – ON EACH HAND, AND SIX (6) TOES – ON EACH FOOT – TWENTY-FOUR, IN NUMBER; AND He Also, Was Born To The Giant (Raphah)!  SO, When He Defied Israel – Jonathan, The Son Of Shimea (aka Shammah), David’s Brother, Killed Him!

THESE FOUR, Were Born To The Giant (Raphah), IN Gath; AND Fell, By The Hand Of David, AND By The Hand Of His Servants!

1 Kings 9:20-21

All The People – WHO WERE Left Of The Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, And Jebusites (i.e. The Giants) – WHO WERE NOT Of The Children Of Israel — THAT IS, Their Descendants, Who Were Left, IN The Land, AFTER Them; Whom, The Children Of Israel, Had NOT Been Able To Destroy, Completely — From THESE (The Amorites, Hittites, Perizzites, Hivites, And Jebusites) – Solomon Raised Forced Labor; AS IT IS – TO THIS DAY!

Finally, Let’s Answer, THESE Questions: Why Did GOD Almighty Have The Children Of Israel DESTROY – THESE Particular People?  WHO WERE (OR Should I Say, WHAT WERE), The People, Who Lived, IN THE PROMISED LAND, BEFORE The Children Of Israel – DISPOSSESSED THEM?

Answer: THEY Were The Giants (The Nephilim, OR The Rephaim, OR The Fallen Ones, OR The Mighty Ones, etc.); AND They Were DESTROYED – BY GOD Almighty; TO PREVENT – THEIR POLLUTING Of Mankind’s Genetic Material, i.e. Our DNA; AND Just As Importantly, Remember, The Children Of Israel, Were WARNED, NOT To Take Wives, OR Husbands, FROM THESE People, Either!

Here’s A Question, Which Is Often Brought Up, THESE Days: Could The Giants “Reappear” Upon The Earth – IN THESE, THE LAST DAYS (The End Times)?

Answer: Speaking ONLY, For Myself; I Think, There Are Two Possibilities; Each Involving, Mankind Messing, With Genetic Materials!  One, Mankind Uses The Genetic Material, From An Actual “Giant”, To Clone IT; And Two, THROUGH Genetic Manipulation, Mankind Mistakenly, Initiates (OR Turns On), The Sequencing Of A Dormant “Giant” Gene, CREATING – A New Giant Hybrid!

Do I Think, THAT Either Of These Possibilities, Could OR Will OCCUR?  NO, BUT Anything Can Happen; Especially, AFTER The Being Caught Up Together OCCURS!

Finally, Wherever YOU Are, Wherever YOU Go, Whatever YOU Do; Be It, IN The Natural Physical World, OR IN Cyber World; Remember, The Being Caught Up Together IS IMMINENT; And We (Fellow Believers – Children Of GOD Almighty) Want To Be Found, By Jesus Christ, Himself – Going About THE FATHER’S BUSINESS; Which Is, Sharing The Gospel Of Jesus Christ – As Good AND Faithful Servants!  Amen!
