THE SONS OF GOD / GENESIS 6:1-2

START YOUR DAY RIGHT DAILY DEVOTION

(KJV) Genesis 6:1-2

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

2That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

THE SONS OF GOD / GENESIS 6:1-2

The phrase, “sons of God,” most likely refers to men who were descendants of the godly family line of Seth (Deuteronomy 14:1; 32:5; Psalms 73:15; Hosea 1:10). But they began to intermarry (from marriages between two groups) with the “daughters of men,” who likely were women from Cin’s ungodly family (Genesis 4:16). The theory that the “sons of God” were angels is unlikely because Jesus said that angels do not marry (Matthew 22:30; Mark 12:25). This union of the godly with the ungodly led to “wickedness” (Genesis 6:5). The godly became so preoccupied with evil that all the world became corrupt and filled with violence (Genesis 6:11-13).
