Yep: I believe it because the Word says it. But I have been trying to rap my head around it. In my mind I thought the angles were not created to produce offspring! Now we know that fallen angels (demons) are roaming free on the earth, yet the Bible says, I think in Jude that there are demons bound by chains waiting for there judgment. I wonder if those demons that are bound are the ones that produced giant of old. That would explain why there have not been giant like that since the OT! Just my thought.
Have you read the Book of Jude? We're given hints there.
Jude 6
6 And the angels which kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation, he hath reserved in everlasting chains under darkness unto the judgment of the great day.
KJV
Those are the "sons of God" (angels) of Genesis 6. They are reserved in darkness in chains by that sin. The demons that are on loose represent evil spirits, different entities than those angels who mated with flesh woman.
"kept not their first estate" -- that suggests to me that those angels left their heavenly state somehow without being born of woman. Because Genesis 6 said they looked upon flesh women and saw they were fair, it suggests they lusted after what flesh man was given.
"left their own habitation" -- this further suggests their having left the heavenly dimension.
So did they take on a flesh body? I don't know, and don't really believe so. And I hate to bring this up, but how did The Holy Spirit impregnate Mary without involving, you know what?
That this was the matter in Genesis 6 during the time of Noah is shown further in the Hebrew of Genesis 6:9 about Noah being "perfect in his generations". The Hebrew word for "generations" is the same word about bloodline purity of animals required for old covenant sacrifices. That suggests Noah kept his bloodline from Adam pure.
