Uncovering Giants: From Historical Rejection to Modern Speculation
The chapter explores the historical rejection of the giant worldview in early Judaism and by influential church figures before the rediscovery of the lost book of Enoch in the late 18th century shed new light on the topic. It discusses the skepticism inherited by later church figures and delves into the significance of giants in biblical theology, avoiding sensationalism. The conversation also examines the debate on the size of giants in historical narratives, linking them to biblical spirituality and the conflict between the seed of the serpent and the seed of the woman.
