THE FLOOD

 Why did Yhovah decide to destroy all life?

     The first eight verses of the sixth chapter of Genesis describe an incredible series of events, when taken in their entirety, leave a gaping hole in the church’s view of mankind’s past.  Unmentioned, from the pulpit, is mankind’s former close relationship with the Elohiym and the devastation of a terrible action by the angels.  What caused Yhovah such regret is a master key to understanding many of the enigmas of the Bible, human history, and much of what is known in our world as the paranormal.
     The Flood of Noah is perhaps the best known of the Old Testament Bible stories, yet the cause of what was the worst catastrophe in history, is veiled in mystery.  The relationship between the Nephilim, (called giants, mighty men, and men of renown), and the flood is not revealed from the pulpit.  The relationship of the Nephilim to the devils of the New Testament is seldom considered.   

The Genesis account of the beginning of worldwide devastation: 

     Genesis 6:1 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,  2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.  3  And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.  4  There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.  5  And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.  6  And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.  7 And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.  8  But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.

     The doctrinal line that explains the devastating decision Yhovah makes is that mankind simply achieved a level of consistent evil that caused its demise.  Found in eight verses is a group of concepts that, considered individually, or as a whole, present a plethora of doubts about accepted doctrinal accuracy and completeness.

Mankind begins to be fruitful and multiply.

Angels are shown to be in very close contact with men.

Yhovah is shown to be in close contact with men.

Angels begin to freely mate with women.

Women give birth to a race of giants.

Yhovah decides to cease his close contact with men.

Evil becomes the central focus of mankind.

Yhovah regrets the creation of all life on Earth.

Yhovah decides to bring an end to human civilization.

Yhovah decides to eliminate all life on the planet.

Fortunately for mankind only one man on the planet finds favor with Yhovah.

     It doesn't get any closer to the edge than that.  Without Noah, life as we know it, would never have occurred.  Perhaps this is why there are hundreds of accounts of the flood worldwide, with hundreds of Noah figures to match.  And why, in the face of overwhelming geological evidence that a flood did indeed occur, does science cling so tightly to shaky theoretical alternatives? 

     Breaking down the individual concepts and considering them in their relation to the whole will give a clearer perspective of the final impact on humanity.

And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them.

     This is as it should be.  Prior to the end of the this age Man is told to be fruitful and multiply in the first chapter of Genesis:
     1:22 And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.
     1:28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

     Since this is apparently what mankind is commanded to do, then of course it, of itself, is not the cause of the evil which has caused Yhovah’s regret.  There is no way to know the population figures but hundreds of cultures worldwide record the event.  It certainly took all these cultures by surprise and most evidence of those cultures vanished in a watery quagmire.  Considering the wealth of evidence remains, there must have been an incredible explosion in human culture and diversity .   

That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose. 

     All these cultures speak of a close relationship with the gods.  Here we will deal with the specific details recorded by Moses, but it should be remembered that there are many versions of man’s close ties to the gods by many authors worldwide.  The similarities between these accounts give rise to a serious question.  Was all this activity concentrated in one tiny geographical area?  Logic and corroborating evidence would make this a ridiculous assumption. 

     The account in the Bible of the Family of man and his dispersal worldwide starts with his expulsion from the Garden of Eden.  The concept of a human culture does not begin biblically until the mention of the acts of Cain in the fourth chapter of Genesis:

     4:16.  And Cain went out from the presence of the Lord, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden.  17.  And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.

     The end of the fourth chapter gives us our only clue concerning this close relationship with the Elohiym and the angels.
     26. And to Seth, to him also there was born a son; and he called his name Enos: then began men to call upon the name of the Lord.

     Unfortunately that is the extent of the Bible’s coverage of mankind’s history before then flood with only the geology from Adam to Noah to fill in the gaps.  Cain builds a city, men begin a relationship with God, and then it’s over.   But there is a source that provides enlightenment to this unknown age.  It comes from the third generation of Adam, Cain’s firstborn, Enoch. 

The Missing Antediluvian Age

     With only a few words form Moses and brief general descriptions from Matthew and Luke there is little to point to the true cause of man's evil binge before the flood:

     Matthew 24:37  But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.  38  For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,  39  And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

 Luke 17:26  And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the
                                   Son of man.  27  They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

     There is a source that sheds considerable light on the the cause of mankind's demise and presents a scenario so unorthodox, it is no wonder it was rejected by the church.   Here in brief is what Enoch has to say the for mankind's near demise:

Enoch's Revelation

     Enoch had a revelation given to him just as John received thousands of years later on the Isle of Patmos.  Enoch's revelation is very interesting as he gives a clear descriptive narration of the vehicles he travels in, and the places he visits.

     The angels were in such close contact that they actually taught men previously unknown knowledge and corrupted mankind with power and skills that caused certain self destruction.

     The angels actually organized a plot to inbreed with human women and swore an evil oath to seal the devastating conspiracy.  The ring leaders are named and the number of conspirators is given.

     The giants apparently had an appetite that matched their size.  These hybrid monsters ate all man could produce, all they could acquire from nature, and then running out of even wild game, they found humans an easy to catch and abundant source of food. 

     The angels who perpetrated the invasive act are imprisoned, but the spirits of their illicit offspring are roaming the planet.

     When the giants were killed by the flood their bodies actually emitted spirit beings whose sole purpose is to torture and devastate man until the judgment day.

     This may not only be the key to the cause of the wrath of Yhovah but certain anomalies in history and new perspectives on the world of the paranormal.

Enoch the Special Prophet.

    Enoch lived for 365 years but that is a relative figure because apparently in Genesis 5:24 Yhovah took him on board and didn't bring him back.  In Hebrews 11:5 the word translate is used 3 times: By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. The words from which "translate" is rendered mean" to transport".  It is clear that he was physically taken and he describes the method of transportation.
     The Book of Enoch was rejected by the church, even though reference to it was allowed to remain in the Bible, (Jude 1:14), and the church gives credence to it's authenticity.  Just a cursory review of the text will show that keeping this work in the light would create questions the church would never want to answer. 

 The Flood project is ongoing and will be finished in a few days but the Book of Enoch is available at the link below.  It is well worth the time to read and can be found here
