GINOLJC, to all.
now that we have Goliath, and king Og of Bashan, an “Amorite" down pretty good. These two scripture I must drive home again. Gen 9:18 ¶ And the sons of Noah, that went forth of the ark, were Shem, and Ham, and Japheth: and Ham is the father of Canaan.
Gen 9:19 These are the three sons of Noah: and of them was the whole earth overspread.
Other words anyone who was born on this planet came from one of these three boys mention here in these two verses. But notice how the verse says, “and Ham is the father of Canaan“. why add this? In all my research so far, all the Giants are trace back to this man, “Canaan”, Ham son. Interesting observation.
these are the next giants we will look at “the sons of Anak”. scripture, Num 13:33 And there we saw the giants, the sons of Anak, which come of the giants: and we were in our own sight as grasshoppers, and so we were in their sight. The verse said “in their own sight”.
the most controversial giants in the bible are the sons of Anak, why?. Many people say, “where did they come from, they just came out of no where? Well let’s see. The key word to zero in on is the name “Anak”. if we discover who he is then we can find out about his sons. Anak is the Hebrew word, H6061 עָנָק `Anaq (aw-nawk') n/p. meaning Anak = "neck", Anak, a Canaanite. progenitor of a family, or tribe of the giant people in Canaan.
Ok, we get that “Anak” is Canaanite, but where in the bible, the word of God, dose it say this for sure?.
Num 13:1 And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,
Num 13:2 Send thou men, that they may search the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel: of every tribe of their fathers shall ye send a man, every one a ruler among them.
So we know that the children of Israel was sent to spy out the Land of Canaan. Let’s continue and pick up at verse 22.
Num 13:22 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now Hebron was built seven years before Zoan in Egypt.)
This verse holds important information. Coming by Hebron; where Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak were. Take note of the names of the children of Anak. The children of Anak was in “Hebron”. scripture, , Judg 1:10 And Judah went against the Canaanites that dwelt in Hebron: (now the name of Hebron before was Kirjatharba:) and they slew Sheshai, and Ahiman, and Talmai. Remember these was the the sons of Anak, and and they dwelt there in Hebron, and they was Canaanites. so the bible confirm for us that the sons of Anak was Canaanites, but did they have an earthly orgin.
Evidence #1. they, these giants was Canaanites But here’s the catch. Here in Judg 1:10, Hebron, before it was renamed by Judah invasion, it was knows as Kirjatharba, so who is Kirjatharba that this city was named after, let’s see.
H7153 קִריַת אַרבַּע Qiryath 'Arba` (keer-yath' ar-bah') n/l.
קִריַת הָאַרבַּע Qiryath ha'Arba` (keer-yath' haw-ar-bah') [
1. city of Arba, or city of the four (giants).
2. Kirjath-Arba or Kirjath-ha-Arba, a place in Israel.
the city of the four (giants). Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, which are the sons of Anak. So Anak, and his three sons lived in Kirjatharba, which was in Canaan.
But the question remain, Who is “Arba? answer, After the conquest of the promise land, Scripture, Josh 21:9 And they gave out of the tribe of the children of Judah, and out of the tribe of the children of Simeon, these cities which are here mentioned by name,
Josh 21:10 Which the children of Aaron, being of the families of the Kohathites, who were of the children of Levi, had: for theirs was the first lot.
Josh 21:11 And they gave them the city of Arba the father of Anak, which city is Hebron, in the hill country of Judah, with the suburbs thereof round about it.
So Arba, according to the bible was Anak father, grandfather of Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, they all lived in Kirjatharba which is now known as Hebron.
So the sons of Anak, (the Giants), came from the earthly man “Arba” who son was Anak, and he had three sons Ahiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, which are the sons of Anak who was a Canaanite in orgin, because the Canaanites dwelt in Hebron. Norman tall men with earthly fathers.
Knowing this, it bring us back to the genealogy list in Gen 10:6. "And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan". This is where the Canaanite came from, the man Canaan. But there was many offspring that was Canaanite. Scripture,
Gen 10:15 And Canaan begat Sidon his firstborn, and Heth,
Gen 10:16 And the Jebusite, and the Amorite, (remember king Og was an Amorite), and the Girgasite,
Gen 10:17 And the Hivite, and the Arkite, and the Sinite,
Gen 10:18 And the Arvadite, and the Zemarite, and the Hamathite: and afterward were the families of the Canaanites spread abroad. (so there was many off-shoot of Canaanites and many of them was “GIANTS”).
Gen 10:19 And the border of the Canaanites was from Sidon, as thou comest to Gerar, unto Gaza; as thou goest, unto Sodom, and Gomorrah, and Admah, and Zeboim, even unto Lasha.
Gen 10:20 These are the sons of Ham, after their families, after their tongues, in their countries, and in their nations.
Ham is the man of Giants. one more Giant of Ham decent we will take at look at, for it takes us to, or rather from Egypt.
1Chr 11:22 Benaiah the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Kabzeel, who had done many acts; he slew two lionlike men of Moab: also he went down and slew a lion in a pit in a snowy day.
1Chr 11:23 And he slew an Egyptian, a man of great stature, five cubits high; and in the Egyptian's hand was a spear like a weaver's beam; and he went down to him with a staff, and plucked the spear out of the Egyptian's hand, and slew him with his own spear.
This ordinary man, an Israelite slew this Egyptian, a man of great stature, who was 5 cubit tall.
Conversion, 7’ 6” tall. The exact same height of the basketball player Yao Ming who is 7’ 5” so, if Yao Ming and some of the other NBA Basketball player would have live back then they would be considered GIANTS also.
One other thing that set this Egyptian apart, he had a spear like a weaver's beam. What other famous giant carried this type weapon?.
1Sam 17:4 And there went out a champion out of the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span.
1Sam 17:5 And he had an helmet of brass upon his head, and he was armed with a coat of mail; and the weight of the coat was five thousand shekels of brass.
1Sam 17:6 And he had greaves of brass upon his legs, and a target of brass between his shoulders.
1Sam 17:7 And the staff of his spear was like a weaver's beam; and his spear's head weighed six hundred shekels of iron: and one bearing a shield went before him.
The Egyptian man and Goliath both came from Ham. Let’s see. Gen 10:6 And the sons of Ham; Cush, and Mizraim, and Phut, and Canaan. Looking up Mizraim, it’s H4714 מִצרַיִם Mitsrayim (mits-rah'-yim) adj.
Mitsrajim, i.e. Upper and Lower Egypt.
[dual of H4693]
KJV: Egypt, Egyptians, Mizraim
So the Egyptian, as well as Goliath, the Philistines came from the man HAM.
all of these giants can be trace back to earthly parents. no angel intervention. remember the scripture, Gen 6:4 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.
now if we have giants after the flood and there was no angelic interbreeding then it was none before the flood, which mean that the "sons of God" in Genesis chapter 6 are earthly men just like those after the flood.
Next time, Lord willing, the “sons of God” before the flood.
