Ephesians 6:12 - King James Version (KJV)
<12> For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
"During the time of the Antichrist, people will be waiting for salvation from outer space. This will be the devil's biggest trick."
Elder Gabriel (Urgebadze)
One of the most difficult biblical passages to interpret is the account contained in the Book of Genesis about some unusual marital relationship between the "sons of God" and the "daughters of men." Further, the Bible speaks about the appearance of certain giants on earth, about the extreme corruption of mankind and its subsequent destruction by a Worldwide flood, from which only the family of righteous Noah was saved in the ark.
In the "Biblical Encyclopedia" Archim. Nikephoros (1891), in an article about the giants, says that they "oppressed and enslaved their brothers and, by their way of life, spread wickedness and corruption even among the descendants of Seth, so that God condemned the depraved human race to be destroyed by the flood. As can be seen from the video. According to the Scriptures (Deuteronomy 3:11, Numbers 13:34, 1 Samuel 13:4), such great-sized people existed after the flood, which is even confirmed by the human skeletons and bones found in the earth today much larger than ordinary ones."
Here are just some of the similar findings.
In 1577, in one of the caves of Switzerland, a giant human skeleton was discovered, its length exceeded 5 meters. This skeleton was displayed in the city museum and was kept there for almost a century.
In South Africa, in the province of Transvaal, in 1912, a farmer discovered the footprint of a giant human foot on a rock. Its size is 1.3 meters long and 76 centimeters wide. 40 years after this discovery, journalist David Barritt, who visited this plateau, described the trail as follows: "The footprint is pressed into the granite rock by as much as 12 cm. It would take a lot of work to carve such a fake in this hardest granite. In addition, the giant's footprint bears absolutely no traces of processing. Apparently, it was left on a horizontal slab, which was placed vertically by seismic or other cataclysms. The aborigines of the local tribes consider it sacred and believe in supernatural origin. However, one thing is absolutely irrefutable: cutting out such an imprint in a granite rock, even by modern means, is a very difficult task. Meanwhile, the aborigines have been commemorating him in their legends since time immemorial."

The exact same print was found on the island of Ceylon. The famous Arab traveler of the XIV century, ibn Battuta, who visited Ceylon, described this trail: "I had only one desire to visit Adam's holy foot." In Ceylon, Sri Lanka, there is the famous Adam's Peak, at the top of which stands a black rock. It is on it that the footprint is located. Ibn Battuta determined its dimensions: the length of the foot is 1.5 meters, the width is about 80 centimeters. Later, scientists determined the approximate height of the giant – 10.2 meters.

In 1930, in Australia, near Basarst, prospectors at the jasper mines often found fossilized prints of huge human feet. The race of giant humans whose remains were found in Australia, anthropologists called the megantropuses. The height of these people ranged from 2.10 to 3.65 meters. An anthropological expedition that specifically explored the area in 1985 for the remains of Meganthropuses conducted excavations at a depth of up to three meters from the earth's surface. Australian researchers have found, among other things, a fossilized molar with a height of 67 and a width of 42 millimeters. The owner of the tooth must have been at least 7.5 meters tall.
Meganthropuses are similar to gigantopithecus, the remains of which were discovered in China. Judging by the fragments of jaws and many teeth found, the height of the Chinese giants ranged from 3 to 3.5 meters.
And so on…
Giants, giants, giants, Titans, Atlanteans… All these words are similar in meaning. Myths of many peoples speak of ancient giants who possess amazing technology of megalithic construction. It is believed that the name "Atlantis" came from Atlas, the brother of Prometheus, one of the titans of Greek mythology. The Titans (in later myths they are confused with giants) are giant gods born by the goddess of the earth Gaia from drops of blood of the god of heaven Uranus; they rebelled against the king of gods and men Zeus and other gods of the Olympic pantheon, were defeated by them and cast into the depths of the earth.
ARE THE NEPHILIM ALIENS?
In the Hebrew text of the Holy Scriptures, the giants are called by the word nephilim. Although in Scripture this term sometimes serves as a designation for giants or giants (Numbers 13: 33-34), the main meaning of this word is "destroyers, overthrowers", as well as those who corrupt, make them fall; according to another translation— "fallen people". Therefore, the antediluvian nephilim are not only giants, but also subversives, rebels who rebelled against God, participants in a God—fighting, Satanic project aimed at involving humanity in the cult of Satan worship and the destruction of human souls, spiritual murder.
Strictly speaking, it is not quite correct to say "nephilim", because in Hebrew, Nephilim is already the plural. This word comes from the Semitic root NFL (Nafal/Nefel — nafal/nephil) — "to plunge (fall) down." The ending "-im" is typical for plural nouns.
And the word "fallen" (as a possible translation of the word nephilim) reminds of demons. Perhaps the following quote from V. I. Shcherbakov's book "All about Atlantis" is a confirmation of this: "According to the beliefs of the Papuans, the great disaster [The worldwide flood (Here and further in square brackets are the notes of the author of this article.) it happened back when the earth was inhabited not by humans, but by intelligent beings with magical properties, extraordinarily powerful and wise. These creatures are ["sons of God"? The Nephilim?] they are called "dema" in myths — isn't it very close in sound to the European concept of "demon"?".
Before the story of the Flood, it is written in the Book of Genesis (synodal translation, from the Hebrew text): "When people began to multiply on earth and their daughters were born, then the sons of God [ben Elohim — aram. When they saw the daughters of men that they were beautiful, they took them to be their wives, whichever one they chose. And the LORD God said, My Spirit shall not despise these men forever, for they are flesh; let their days be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants on earth at that time [nephilim], especially since the time when [according to another translation, "At that time, as well as later, there were giants on the earth, for ..."] the sons of God began to enter into the daughters of men, and they began to give birth to them: these are strong, glorious people from ancient times" (Gen. 6:1-4).
In the translation made according to the Septuagint (i.e. from the Greek text), the words of the Lord ("My Spirit does not last forever..." and so on) have the following form: "My breath in a person is not forever. He is only flesh, and may his life span be one hundred and twenty years." However, in the Hebrew text (which is recognized by the translators as unclear at this point) this phrase literally begins like this: "Don't rebel (fight, be indignant) My Spirit is in man forever...". Today, bearing in mind what is revealed to us about the antediluvian world, it can be assumed that these words of God indicate some kind of rebellion, the indignation of antediluvian people against God the Creator, which consisted in participating in certain God-fighting, satanic projects and designs. An additional confirmation of this understanding of this passage in the Bible is that it is immediately followed by a story about the Nephilim.

And immediately after the words about the Nephilim, God's definition of the destruction of depraved humanity follows.: "And the Lord God saw that the wickedness of men was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts and thoughts of their hearts were evil at all times; and the Lord repented that he had made man on the earth, and was grieved in his heart. And the LORD said, "I will destroy from the face of the earth the men whom I have created, both man and beast, and the creeping things and the birds of the air, for I have repented that I created them" (Gen. 6:5-7).
Some interpreters explain the words "let their days be one hundred and twenty years" as follows: the spirit that the Lord has put into a person will now leave the body sooner than before, namely, after 120 years, and since then this number means maximum longevity. According to other interpreters, "these words cannot be understood in the sense of shortening human life to the limits of one hundred and twenty years (as understood by I. Flavius, Antiquities 1,3,2), since it is reliably known that for a long time after the flood, mankind lived for more than 120 years, sometimes reaching up to 500, and they should be seen as the time appointed by God for repentance and correction of people, during which the righteous Noah prophesied about the flood and made appropriate preparations for it" ("The Explanatory Bible" edited by Professor A. P. Lopukhin).
For a very long time, Noah built the ark on land, most likely far from the sea, and all people could watch; all these years Noah preached the truth (2 Peter 2:5). "In the days of Noah, during the building of the ark" God's long-suffering awaited the disobedient, as it is said in the Apostle Peter (1 Peter 3:20), but they did not repent.…
There is the following explanation for the difficult—to-understand words - that God repented that He created man.: «…This text is one example of how God's behavior is fundamentally different from ours. Human remorse in Hebrew is expressed by the verb "shuvv," which literally means "to turn 180 degrees." God's condition is described by the verb "naham." This verb does not express regret, nor a desire to reverse something, but a deep sigh that a person can take when his heart hurts. In other words, when God sees all this corruption and evil in humanity, His heart aches." In the Old Slavonic Bible: "... and God thought, as He created man on earth, and thought."
God created man according to His plan (the Hebrew word translated in Genesis 2, 7 as "created" has exactly this meaning), but man, incited by fallen angels, used the freedom given to him for evil purposes. The path that humanity embarked on did not correspond to the Divine plan for man, the high destiny and dignity of man.
"And the Lord God saw that the wickedness of men was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts and thoughts of their hearts were evil at all times... the earth was corrupted before God, and the earth was filled with wickedness... for all flesh had corrupted his way on the earth" (Gen. 6, 5 and 11-12). There is hardly a stronger statement of humanity's sinfulness in the Bible. What is said here in the Book of Genesis allows us to get into the essence of seemingly ordinary (judging by the way the Gospel says about it) things that happened "in the days before the flood," when people "ate, drank, married and were married until the day Noah entered the ark" (Matthew 24:38).
There are different versions regarding the origin of the Nephilim.
A fairly common view is that the "sons of God" who belonged to the "daughters of men" were fallen angels, and the "nephilim" were descendants from such marriages. Proponents of this understanding refer, in particular, to the Book of Job, where in several places the term "sons of God" clearly refers to angels (e.g. Job 2:1: "There was a day when the sons of God came to stand before the Lord; Satan also came among them to stand before the Lord"). In the Septuagint translation, instead of "sons of God," it says: "angels of God."
Opponents of this point of view completely exclude the possibility of angels cohabiting with women, referring to the statement of Jesus Christ that people after the resurrection from the dead "will neither marry nor marry, but will be like Angels in heaven" (Mark 12:25). However, the Lord is still speaking here about the heavenly life of the holy angels, and not about the earthly activities of the fallen angels.
Some modern authors suggest that fallen angels on earth could use the bodily shell of vicious people in order to give birth to a vicious and corrupt generation (which is mentioned in the 6th chapter of the Book of Genesis: "And the Lord God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted its way on the earth.")

There is also a newfangled "UFO" hypothesis, according to which the "nephilim" and/or "sons of God" from Genesis chapter 6 are aliens who arrived on Earth many millennia ago and taught humanity how to build pyramids, as well as gave many other knowledge and skills. This hypothesis is based on the so–called theory of paleovisites or palekontact (from the Greek palaios - ancient), according to which traces of visits by certain space aliens remain in the monuments of the most ancient culture of mankind. Adherents of this theory claim that extraterrestrials encrypted some valuable information in the pyramids and their other creations.
In general, fantasies on this topic are diverse. According to one version, highly advanced aliens created humans. According to other versions, aliens came to Earth, built pyramids and other mysterious objects, and then either left or were destroyed by earthlings. And there is such a variation: aliens destroyed the civilization of earthlings who built the pyramids, and all of today's humanity supposedly descended from those aliens.
V. Koneles (one of the authors who adheres to the hypothesis of paleocontact) in his book "Descended from heaven and created people" (Moscow, 2000) writes:
"The Sumerians claim that all the diverse knowledge and technology ("wisdom") were transmitted to them by the Anunnaki "descended from heaven." As it appears from the Sumerian texts, the Anunnaki/Anakim/Nephilim arrived on Earth 120 "years" (according to their calculations) before the Flood, that is, about 445,000 years ago in our time...
It seems that after finding rich placer deposits over time, they began mining gold in southeast Africa. This labor was more like hard labor for life, and about 300,000 years ago, the Anunnaki, who worked in the African mines, rebelled. And then the chief scientist of Ea and the senior physician of the Anunnaki, the goddess Ninti, created "primitive workers" — homo sapiens with the help of genetic manipulation... Mesopotamian, Old Testament and apocryphal texts claim that "those who descended from heaven" often "combined" with earthly women. As a result, demigod hybrids appeared in the respective regions."
Some modern authors, like the "famous classifier of the unknown" Zachariah Sitchin, "convincingly prove" that all ancient religions are based on the knowledge of the existence of the planet Nibiru (also known as Planet X) in our Solar System, whose inhabitants, visiting Earth from time to time, laid the foundations of the most ancient terrestrial civilization and left numerous traces in the cosmogonic mythologies of mankind.
In the books of supporters of the theory of paleocontact, the following version of the translation of the first verses of the 6th chapter of Genesis is given: "In those days, there were Nephilim on Earth [Descended from Heaven], and also after the sons of God [direct descendants of the Anunnaki] began to mate with the daughters of Adam and they began to give birth to them. They were mighty people from shem [who came] from Eternity" (Sitchin Z., "The Twelfth Planet"). By the word shem, the authors who adhere to the paleocontact version understand a "heavenly fire ship" or "flying machine".
Church pastors and Orthodox authors of materials devoted to the "UFO phenomenon" warn and explain to overly gullible contemporaries that the messengers of "extraterrestrial civilizations" and "parallel worlds" appear to people none other than demons, evil spirits. This topic is well covered, for example, in the book "Orthodoxy and the Religion of the Future" by Hieromonk Seraphim (Rose).

"UFO encounters," wrote Fr. Serafim, "are nothing more than a modern form of occult phenomena that have existed for many centuries. People have abandoned Christianity and are waiting for "saviors" from outer space; that is why the phenomenon gives images of interplanetary ships and aliens. But what exactly is this phenomenon? Who is involved in the "development" of these scenes and for what purpose?
...Some, or even many, of the reports are fakes or the results of hallucinations; but it is simply impossible to discard everything, including many thousands of UFO reports in this category. A great many modern mediums and their spiritualistic phenomena are also scams; but mediumistic spiritualism itself, in its genuine form, certainly produces real "paranormal" phenomena under the influence of demons. UFO phenomena having the same origin are no less real... Demons also have "physical bodies", however, their "matter" is so subtle that they cannot be visible to a person unless his spiritual "doors of perception" are opened by God's permission (as in saints) or against him (as in saints sorcerers and mediums).
Orthodox literature provides many examples of demonic phenomena that fit exactly into the UFO pattern: visions of "corporeal" beings and "tangible" objects (whether the demons themselves or their illusory creations) that instantly "materialize" and "dematerialize," always with the aim of intimidating people and bringing them closer to destruction. The lives of the fourth-century saint Anthony the Great and the third-century saint Cyprian, the former Magus, are full of similar cases…
It is clear that the phenomena of today's "flying saucers" are well within the capabilities of demonic "technology"; indeed, there is no better explanation for these phenomena.… And the purpose of "unidentified" objects in such contacts is quite clear: to awe witnesses and create a sense of "mystery" and "provide proof" of the existence of "higher forms of intelligence" ("angels" if the victim believes in them, or "visitors from outer space" for modern humans), and thus ensure faith. the message they want to convey…
Of course, man cannot fully "explain" the invisible world of angels and demons; but we have been given enough Christian knowledge to understand how these creatures operate in our world and how we should respond to their actions, especially how to avoid demonic snares."
"ENOCH, THE SEVENTH FROM ADAM, ALSO PROPHESIED, SAYING..."
The interpretation that the "sons of God" in Genesis 6 are angels was widely known in the early centuries of the Christian era. This understanding was accepted by both the Jewish interpreters (Philo) and the early fathers and teachers of the Church: Justin the Philosopher, Irenaeus, Athenagoras, Tertullian, Clement of Alexandria, Ambrose.
However, since the fourth century, a different understanding of this mysterious biblical place began to spread in church literature. It has been suggested that the "sons of God" are pious Sethites, descendants of the righteous Seth (the third son of Adam and Eve, the ancestor of Enoch and Noah), and the "daughters of men" are Cainite women, vicious representatives of the family of Cain (the first son of Adam and Eve, who killed his brother Abel). This interpretation was inherent in John Chrysostom, Ephraim the Syrian, Blessed. Theodoret, Cyril of Jerusalem, Jerome, Augustine.
Among the early Christians, the Book of Enoch, which is now considered an apocrypha, had great authority. — hidden, hidden, secret.). It follows that the "sons of God" are "angels who descended from heaven to earth and revealed to the sons of men what was hidden, and tempted the sons of men to commit sins" (Enoch 10:64).

The angels (called "guardians of heaven" in the Book of Enoch) entered into a criminal alliance with the women who seduced them and taught people magic (magic), astrology, spells (witchcraft), various "angelic secrets" and "devilish powers" (according to another translation — inventions), as a result of which "great wickedness appeared on earth" (Enoch 2:15).
"And the angels, the sons of heaven, saw them [the wives], and desired them, and said one to another: "Let us choose wives among the sons of men and bear ourselves children!" Then they all swore an oath together and pledged everything to each other with spells: there were only two hundred of them. And they went down to Ardis, which is the top of Mount Hermon; and they called it Mount Hermon, because they swore an oath on it and pronounced curses to one another.…

And they took wives for themselves, and each chose one for himself; and they began to enter into them and mingle with them, and taught them magic and spells, and revealed to them the cutting of roots and trees. They conceived and gave birth to great giants, whose height was three thousand cubits. They ate up all the people's gains, so that people could no longer feed them. Then the giants turned against the people themselves to devour them... And they began to sin against birds and beasts, and things that move, and fish, and began to devour their flesh with one another and drink their blood from it..." (Enoch 2).
V. P. Vikhlyantsev's "Bible Dictionary" indicates that Enoch is "the seventh from Adam, a righteous man who rebuked the world and prophesied about the coming judgment. He was taken by God to heaven without experiencing death (God took Enoch away at the age of 365 in 987 from the Creation of the world, Noah was born in 1056). The ancients considered him the first scientist to invent writing, counting, and the beginning of astronomy. Between the 2nd century B.C. and the 2nd century A.D., a book named after him was widely known, but it was not included in the canon. It was found in the 18th century in Abyssinia (present-day Ethiopia), and it turned out that the prophecy of Enoch in Judah. 14-15 is taken almost verbatim from this book. This book speaks on behalf of Enoch and Noah about God's governance of the world, about the personality and actions of the Messiah, about the last judgment. The Church fathers almost unanimously considered him and the prophet Elijah to be the two witnesses mentioned in Revelation 11:3-12."
The Book of Enoch was referred to by Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Tertullian, as well as the author of the non-canonical Epistle of Barnabas; the latter even spoke of it as part of the Holy Scriptures. However, after the canon of Scripture was formed, the authority of the Book of Enoch faded, and its text was lost. It was rediscovered only in 1773 in the Ethiopian (Amhara) language, in a double translation from Aramaic or Hebrew through Greek, but in full, which is a huge rarity. Subsequently, two large fragments of a Greek text were found during excavations in Ahmim (Egypt), and a large number of short Aramaic fragments were found in Qumran (Palestine). Their comparison allows us to consider the full text (in Ethiopian) authentic. The Russian translation of the Book of Enoch was made from German and published together with the commentary in 1888 in Kazan by Archpriest Alexander Smirnov.
"In fact, today we know of three works written on behalf of the biblical patriarch Enoch, the oldest of which is the so—called "First Book of Enoch" (IV/III-I centuries BC), preserved in the Ethiopian version.…
The first three Ethiopian manuscripts of the book were discovered by J. Bruce was born in Abyssinia and brought to Europe in 1773. The first European translation (into English) was carried out by R. Lawrence and published in Oxford in 1821. The text was translated into Russian by A. V. Smirnov in 1888. The Ethiopian version is probably a translation from the original Greek of the IV-VI centuries. The Ethiopian (Coptic) Church considered the Book of Enoch to be canonical, which is why it has been preserved to this day in its entirety" (P. V. Bersnev. "The Old Testament Apocrypha: The Book of Enoch; The Book of Jubilees, or Genesis Minor; The Covenants of the Twelve Patriarchs; the Psalms of Solomon").

In the New Testament, an indirect reference to the Book of Enoch is given by the Apostle Peter: "God did not spare the angels who sinned, but, binding them with the bonds of the darkness of hell, He delivered them up to be judged for punishment" (2 Peter 2:4). What is meant here is the fall of the angels described in the Book of Enoch, which occurred in the pre-flood period of human history, obviously confirmed by the subsequent words of the apostle that that God "did not spare the first world, but preserved in eight souls the family of Noah, the preacher of righteousness, when He brought the flood upon the world of the wicked" (2 Peter 2:5).
And the apostle Judas says that the Lord "also keeps the angels, who have not preserved their dignity, but have forsaken their dwelling, in eternal bonds, in darkness, for the judgment of the great day" (Jude 5-6). It is in these terms that this theme (the fall and punishment of angels) is presented in the Book of Enoch, which the apostle Judas quotes further in his epistle.: "... Enoch, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied, saying, 'Behold, the Lord is coming with thousands of his holy angels to execute judgment on all and to convict all the wicked among them of all the deeds that their wickedness has done, and of all the cruel words that wicked sinners have spoken against him'" (Jude 14-15).
"AND AZAZEL TAUGHT PEOPLE..."
According to the Book of Enoch, the fallen angels, acting out of their pride "as if they were equal to God" (Enoch 11:33), taught people not only magic, witchcraft and astrology (i.e., what is now in Hinduism, Buddhism, Krishnaism and other "Eastern religions and spiritual practices", as well as in theosophy, Freemasonry and other occult teachings, is called "hidden wisdom", "secret knowledge", "secrets of the ancients", "secrets of the Tibetan lamas", etc.), but also many "practical inventions" and "arts". Here are some of them:
mining and processing of metals;making weapons, military "art";"writing with ink and using paper"; the art of "cutting roots"; abortions; cosmetics, jewelry.
In the Book of Enoch, the names of some guardian angels are given and it is indicated what each of them taught people.:

"And Azazel taught people how to make swords, and knives, and shields, and shells [that's where wars and the production of weapons originate in mankind; historians say that in the ancient world, making weapons was considered a mystical process, as was metalworking in general; numerous mentions of gold and other metals in ancient texts indicate that people mastered the basics of metallurgy in ancient times], and taught them to see what was behind them [now called "paranormal abilities"], and taught them the arts: wrists, and jewelry, and the use of whitewash and blush, and eyebrow embellishment [cosmetics], and the adornment of the most precious and excellent stones, and all kinds of colored materials and metals of the earth.

And great wickedness and many obscenities appeared, and people sinned, and all their ways became corrupt (Cf. Gen. 6, 5 and 11-12.). Amezarak taught all kinds of spells and root-cutting [given the context, we can conclude about the magical nature of the art of "root-cutting"; apparently, it was directed not so much for healing, as much as for drug addiction combined with magic], Armaros for the breaking of spells, Barakal for stargazing, Kokabel for signs; and Temel taught stargazing, and Astradel taught the movement of the moon" (Enoch 2:14-16).
A guardian angel named Kasdeyya "showed people all the evil blows of spirits and demons." [this is where "spoiling", combat magic, martial arts, and so on originate from.], and blows of birth in the womb in order to eliminate it [this is already about abortions, "artificial termination of pregnancy", and in fact — the grave sin of infanticide], and soul blows, snake bites [poisons?], and strokes that occur at noon." And the guardian of Penemue "showed the sons of men the bitter and the sweet, and showed them all the secrets of their wisdom. He taught people how to write with ink and use paper, and through this many have sinned from age to age to this day. For people were not created so that they could consolidate their faithfulness (their word) in this way, with a stick and ink." (Enoch 11:42-44).
All this knowledge and skills acquired from fallen angels brought people much harm, as they were soul-destroying, "for men were created no differently from angels so that they might remain righteous and pure, and death, which destroys all, would not touch them, but they perish through this knowledge" (Enoch 11, 45).
And that's exactly why: "A decree has come out from the presence of the Lord concerning those who live in the firmament, that their end must come [The flood], because they know all the secrets of angels, and all the power of devils, and all their hidden power, and all the power of those who perform magic, and the power of spells, and the power of those who cast images of idols for the whole earth; and they also know well how silver is made from the dust of the earth, and how liquid metal is formed on the earth" (Enoch 11:7).
Wikipedia reports about Azazel: "In the Book of Enoch, Azazel is the leader of the antediluvian giants who rebelled against God. He invented weapons and cosmetics, taught men to fight and women the art of deception, seduced people into godlessness and taught them debauchery."
In another source we read: "In the apocryphal Book of Enoch (2nd century BC), Azazel appears as a fallen angel, a seducer of humanity, a kind of negative cultural hero who taught men war and the craft of a gunsmith, and women the prodigal arts of face painting and the mortal sin of abortion (killing a living baby in the womb); this act of civilizing hostile to God is associated with the motive of fornication between angels ("sons of God") and "daughters of men" (Gen. 6:2), as well as the appearance of a breed of "giants" from this fornication (6: 4-5), who were inspired in their rebellion against God by Azazel ("The Book of Enoch" 8). For this, Azazel is bound by the archangel Raphael, and after the last judgment he will be thrown into the fire (Book of Enoch, chapter 2: "And the Lord said again to Raphael: "Bind Azazel hand and foot and lay him in the darkness; make a hole in the desert that is in Dudael, and lower him there."… And God said to Gabriel: "Go to the illegitimate children, and to the adulterers, and to the children of fornication, and destroy the children of fornication and the children of the guardians from among men."; Bring them out and let them go, so that they may destroy themselves by beating one another, for they must not have a long life.… And God said to Michael: "Destroy Semyaza and his accomplices, who have joined themselves to their wives in order to corrupt themselves with them in all their uncleanness. When all their sons mutually beat each other and they see the destruction of their favorites, then bind them tightly under the hills of the earth for seventy births until the day of judgment on them and until the end of childbirth, until the last judgment for all eternity is completed."). Hints of this version are also scattered in Talmudic literature, where Azazel is sometimes identified with Satan or Samael, and his name is also associated with the names of Uzah and Azael, fallen angels who converged with women. The name Azazel, as one of the traditional names of the demon, was used in fiction (for example, in M. Bulgakov's novel "The Master and Margarita" — in the Italianized form "Azazello")"
Indeed, the image of this fallen angel is very "actively" present in fiction and cinema.
Here are some examples.
In Mikhail Bulgakov's novel The Master and Margarita, Azazello is "a member of Satan's retinue, a killer demon with a repulsive appearance. The prototype of this character was the fallen angel Azazel (who later became a desert demon in Jewish beliefs), mentioned in the apocryphal book of Enoch, one of the angels whose actions on earth provoked the wrath of God and the Flood. By the way, Azazel is a demon who gave men weapons and women cosmetics and mirrors. It is no coincidence that he goes to Margarita to give her the cream" (The Master and Margarita // Wikipedia).
"Azazel" is the name of a conspiracy mystery novel by the famous modern writer Boris Akunin (the first novel in a series that tells about the adventures of detective Erast Fandorin), where Azazel is the symbol, password and patron of a secret world organization led by a certain Lady Esther, obsessed with the idea of world domination. "According to Lady Esther's theory, humanity would have perished long ago if it weren't for the special personalities that appear among people from time to time. Thanks to each of them, humanity has made a leap forward. Prometheus gave people fire.
Moses is the concept of the law. Christ gave people a moral law. Azazel Lady Esther is not one of the guises of Satan. This is the Jewish hero from the Book of Enoch. "He became imbued with love for people and revealed to them the secrets he had learned in heaven." According to Lady Esther, Azazel... taught man a sense of self-worth... "God only dealt man the cards. Azazel teaches you how to play to win" (Prose.ru). And here's another reader's review: "So why Azazel? For some, he is a servant of Satan (if not Satan himself), who "teaches people all sorts of rubbish: men to fight and make weapons, women to paint their faces and etch the fruit." And someone thinks that: "Thanks to Azazel, a man can practice crafts and protect his home.
Thanks to Azazel, a woman turned from a fruitful, uncomplaining female into an equal human being with the freedom to choose whether to be ugly or beautiful, to be a mother or an Amazon, to live for the sake of her family or for the sake of all mankind." It's the same thing from two different sides... It seems to me that if the "Azazelites" had remained true to their original "ideal" idea of bringing knowledge and progress to people, even if they were leading them at the same time, then they could have been understood and accepted. But when they began to mix up with dubious personalities, kill and do evil for their own purposes, all these ideal goals faded into the background. The end does not always justify the means" (livelib.ru ). And the movie based on this novel is called "Azazel".
In addition, Azazel is: a supervillain of comic books published by Marvel Comics; one of the demons trying to free Lucifer in the American mystical television series Supernatural produced by Warner Brothers; an antagonist in the 2004-2005 British television series Witch, fallen angel, lord of the Nephilim; one of the heroes of the American fantasy mini-series Fallen; one of the characters of the Tekken 6 video game and the main boss of this game. Azzie is the main character in the fantasy trilogy "The Story of the Red Demon" co—written by Robert Sheckley and Roger Zelazny. And so on…
This is what "civilization" has turned out to be in humanity: occultism, science, technology, debauchery, violence, infanticide, theology… In all these directions, the "development" of "modern civilization" is rapidly taking place, bringing it closer to its inevitable conclusion — the end of the world and the Last Judgment of God.
The end of the first world (the antediluvian civilization) was the Worldwide Flood, as stated by the Apostle Peter — that God "did not spare the first world" and "brought the flood upon the world of the wicked" (2 Peter 2:5). And in another place: "In the beginning, by the word of God, the heavens and the earth were made of water and water: therefore the world of that time perished, being drowned by water. But the heavens and earth of today, which are contained in the same Word, are being preserved to the Fire for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men" (2 Peter 3:5-7).
"Ancient and sacred writings," wrote cultural historian F. F. Zelinsky in his work Hermes Thrice the Greatest, "say that some angels, inflamed with love for women, descended to earth and taught them the secrets of nature: as a result, they were banished from heaven and doomed to eternal wandering. From this connection came the family of giants. The book they taught the arts from is called Chema; hence the word chema preferably means "art", namely chemistry. Now let's remember that chema is an Egyptian word meaning "to turn black".; now, I think, the words of the Virgin of the World [Isis] are clear, that Hermes-Kamefis "honored her with the blackness of perfection," which means: "taught her chemistry" — as a reward for her love. Indeed, chemistry, as Egypt knew it, was the art of making gold and silver, especially the first" (From the life of ideas. Vol. III. — St. Petersburg, 1908).
Based on the Book of Enoch, it can be assumed that the "fantastic construction technologies" (in the words of modern researchers), with which the antediluvian pyramids were built, were also taught to people by fallen angels.
ATLANTIS OR AN ANTEDILUVIAN CIVILIZATION?
The builders of the pyramids and other objects of the antediluvian God—defying system were apparently Nephilim, who were involved in this project by fallen angels, led by Satan.
The pyramids were built before the Flood, and now we can only see the remains of this destroyed system (which included the pyramids); and many more remains are at the bottom of the seas and oceans. In addition to Egypt, giant pyramid structures have been found in Mexico, South America, China, India, Southeast Asia, Bosnia, Crimea, the Atlantic Ocean, the Sea of Japan... scattered around the world are remnants of an antediluvian civilization. — these are not only grandiose pyramids, but also other mysterious objects: huge stone statues on Easter Island, Stonehenge in England, numerous monuments, obelisks, megaliths and other structures, as well as undeciphered writings, ancient maps, giant terrestrial geometric shapes, drawings and lines (for example, in the Peruvian Nazca desert), other amazing images and objects.

When the ruins of grandiose structures and other traces of an antediluvian civilization are found and explored, various assumptions are put forward, versions are invented.: "This is where Atlantis was located!", "These objects were built by aliens!", etc. And this is not Atlantis or aliens, but an antediluvian civilization. Or, if we use the word "Atlantis", then we must admit that the "Atlantean civilization" (giants, giants) was not located on a submerged island in the Atlantic Ocean or in any particular region of the planet, but was spread throughout the earth, i.e. it was, as they say, global.
"Moses, in Genesis, and Plato, according to Indicoplas, say the same thing: the antediluvian world is nothing but "Atlantis," and the ten Atlantean kings are "ten generations from Adam to Noah" (Jos. Peter, Atlantis, die versunkene Welt, s. 6. — K. Kretschmer, Die Entdeckung Americas, 1882)".
Quoted. by: Merezhkovsky D. S. The Mystery of the West. Atlantis is Europe.
Indicoplus – "9th century Byzantine monk, Kozma Indicoplus (Cosmos Indikopleustes). To his "Christian Topography", Topographia Christiana, he attached a childishly ridiculous map of the globe: the inner sphere, a continuous continent surrounded by the sea, does not hold on to anything, as if hanging in the air, and is surrounded by a second outer sphere, with the inscription: "The land beyond the ocean, where people lived before the flood, terra ultra oceanum, ubiante diluvium habitabant homines"" (D. S. Merezhkovsky, ed. op.).

Almost every culture has legends about sunken cities and continents, about ancient developed civilizations, about certain superhumans, "cities of the gods", about the global catastrophe that our planet experienced several thousand years ago ("In almost all cultures of the world there are strikingly similar legends about the Universal Flood — there are more than five hundred of them. All these legends share the same plot: humanity is destroyed by a Flood, and only one person and his family are saved. In Western countries, this man is known as Noah, the Aztecs call him Nene, in the Middle East he is called "Atrahasis", Utnapishti or Ziusudra. As for the life-saving device, in the Bible it is called an "ark", that is, a ship; in Mesopotamian legends it is an underwater vessel, and in the legends of the Aztecs it is a hollowed-out log" (A. Alford, "The Gods of the New Millennium")). In fact, almost all of these legends (myths, tales, traditions) speak about one civilization — the antediluvian. Numerous finds, theories, and assumptions of "Atlantologists" — seekers of the lost Atlantis, as well as Lemuria, Hyperborea, Pacifida, Mu, and other "ancestral civilizations" - speak about it. After all, attempts to geographically record Atlantis were unsuccessful because the "ancient highly developed civilization" had not a regional, but a planetary scale.
Many modern researchers strongly reject the "official" versions that the ancient pyramids were built by the Egyptians, Indians, Chinese, etc. These researchers came to the conclusion that the pyramids were created by some ancient highly developed civilization; and they did not perform a funerary function, but were built as some kind of energy-informational structures, forming in their entirety a kind of global system, network, complex.

In China, several dozen huge pyramids are located in the middle of agricultural fields a few kilometers west of the city of Xianyang. Their height is higher than that of the Egyptian pyramids; the highest is 300 m (twice as high as the pyramid of Cheops). Why don't the Chinese announce loudly and to the whole world about the existence of such grandiose objects in China, which should seem to indicate how great and developed the ancient Chinese culture was? Because, first of all, they know that it was not the Chinese who built the pyramids in China, just as it was not the Egyptians in Egypt, the Mayans and Aztecs in Mexico, the Incas in Peru, etc.
For many years, the Chinese authorities deliberately concealed the existence of a large number of pyramids in China. It was only in 1997 that the German archaeologist Hartwig Hausdorff managed to obtain the consent of the authorities and visit the Chinese "Valley of the Pyramids". One of China's leading archaeologists, Professor Hia Nai, believes that these pyramids are not being explored today because "this is a job for future generations" (Komsomolskaya Pravda, March 13, 1999). Some researchers believe that Chinese scientists are afraid to invade the pyramids, fearing to find something there that could turn everything around our ideas about life on Earth. According to Chinese archaeologist Wong Shiping, the pyramids are arranged according to astronomical aspects and represent an example of the incredible knowledge of geometry and mathematics possessed by ancient people.

This makes it clear how weak the "traditional" explanation of the purpose of the pyramids as tombs of Chinese emperors proposed by "Egyptologists with Chinese characteristics" looks. According to more serious researchers, the pyramids are just part of a gigantic system of "holy lines" known in China as "feng Shui". In ancient scrolls dating back five thousand years, researchers find information according to which the authors of the grandiose project, of which the pyramids are a part, were the so-called "sons of heaven", who descended to earth several millennia ago on their metal "fire-breathing dragons."

The "sons of heaven" (as well as the "bird people" from the legends of the Indian tribe living on Easter Island) are, presumably, either antediluvian pyramid builders who could have had flying machines (there are archaeological finds indicating this), or simply demons who, as stated in the Holy Scriptures They can also appear to people in the form of "angels of light", for more convenient seduction.
Pyramids are found in the region of Tibet and the Himalayas. Ernst Muldashev, MD, who studied Tibet, writes about the 7-kilometer Mount Kailash, which, according to him, is an artificial superpyramid. In 1996, E. Muldashev organized the international trans-Himalayan expedition, which collected unique material "confirming the existence of the Atlantean civilization." (see E. Muldashev's books: "From whom we came", "In search of the City of the Gods").
https://avatars.dzeninfra.ru/get-zen_doc/271828/pub_68e40fb4ed5a8020633a8d1b_68e5734722378333da2663c7/scale_1200
"Every educated person has heard the legends about the powerful Atlanteans who lived on earth in time immemorial," E. Muldashev writes in the book "From whom we Descended." – In the specialized literature (H. P. Blavatsky, Eastern religions, etc.) it is said that before us there were several civilizations on Earth, the level of development of which was significantly higher than ours… Nostradamus wrote (1555) that the people of the previous civilization, whom he called the Atlanteans, possessed bioenergetic effects on gravity due to the "third eye".
Therefore, they could easily move huge stone blocks in space, build pyramids and other stone monuments out of them... It's hard to say who built the pyramids. But it cannot be ruled out that they were built by the Atlanteans even before the era of modern humans. The Egyptians and Mexicans may not be offended, but it is quite possible that they did not build the pyramids – their ancestors only came to the land of the pyramids and began to live next to the stone colossi.… I read from the same Nostradamus that as a result of a global catastrophe [i.e. The Global flood], which destroyed the Atlanteans, changed the axis of rotation of the Earth and shifted the poles."

We, as Orthodox Christians, of course, should not forget that the revelations of such "great initiates and clairvoyants" as Nostradamus, Blavatsky, Wang (who also spoke about some ancient highly developed civilization), Edgar Cayce (an American "clairvoyant" who had many "revelations" about the pyramids and "Atlantis"), should always be treated critically, because, as the Orthodox Church warns us, these "prophets" are not from God...
The founder of the Theosophical Society, H. P. Blavatsky, wrote in her Secret Doctrine that only the adherents of occult teachings now have the religion that the Atlanteans had several thousand years ago. Theosophists call Atlantis the cradle of mankind, and consider the modern era to be a degradation compared to the ancient Atlantean civilization. Considering themselves the heirs of the lost Atlantis, theosophists admit that it perished as a result of a great catastrophe, but at the same time they slyly keep silent about the fact that the death of that civilization occurred because of its God-fighting and Satanic nature, i.e. E. was the punishment of God that befell the antediluvian people for their depravity and for the same occultism, more precisely, demonism, which is the ancient "religion of the Atlanteans." (Interestingly, Blavatsky herself, in her letters about her hoaxes, writes that she is surprised by the gullibility of "these sweet people": "their stupidity gives me unprecedented pleasure.")
In the "post—flood" historical period, the Satanic essence of this religion is hidden, masked, hence its common name - occultism, from the Latin occultus — secret, hidden. Hence such occult "special terms" as "secret knowledge", "secret doctrine", "hidden wisdom", "initiates" and so on. This also applies to Eastern esoteric (again, secret) doctrines, whose adherents consider Blavatsky to be "the greatest initiate in the world," and they say about her "Secret Doctrine" that many "secrets of the ancients" can be found in this book.

According to a number of researchers, the pyramids were intended to communicate with the "cosmos." On the head of the Egyptian Sphinx, researchers have discovered a so-called "third eye" facing upward, "into space." Four narrow, long chambers (shafts) were discovered in the pyramid of Cheops, which, according to some researchers, were channels (tunnels) through which souls went "to the stars." This conclusion is based, in particular, on the study of the ancient hieroglyphic texts inscribed on the inner walls of the pyramids, discovered in the 1870s and now known as the "Pyramid Texts".
These texts are generally magical in nature, contain spells, and describe some kind of soul-wandering. Among them there is, for example, such a text (given in the book "Secrets of the Pyramids" by R. Buval and E. Gilbert): "O Pharaoh, the sky accepts you as Orion, the light of dawn carries you with Orion... you regularly ascend with Orion to the eastern edge of the sky, you regularly descend with Orion to the western edge of the sky... you are accompanied by Sothis...". Buwell and Gilbert claim that the three pyramids of Giza represent the position of the three stars of Orion's Belt.
"They [the stars of the Orion belt] are tilted to the southwest relative to the axis of the Milky Way, while the pyramids are also tilted to the southwest relative to the axis of the Nile. If you look closely on a clear night, you can see that the smallest of the three stars, the one above, which the Arabs call Mintaka, is slightly shifted to the east of the straight line on which the other two stars lie. This picture is reproduced on Earth, where the pyramid of Menkaura is also offset to the east from the straight line formed by the pyramid of Khafre (an analogue of the middle star, Al-Nilam) and the Great Pyramid, which depicts the star Al-Nitak. It is quite obvious that the three monuments are placed according to a single plan, which accurately models the location of these three stars... Thus, in Giza, the Belt of Orion was depicted on Earth" (Beauvall).
As we know, "morning dawn" is the name of the devil, who was one of the highest angels before his departure from God. According to some, the giant hunter Orion in Greek mythology (according to one of the most famous myths, Orion was turned into a constellation by Zeus) is Nimrod, the organizer of the construction of the post-flood pyramid — the Tower of Babel; in any case, Orion is a "giant", which reminds us of giants, Atlanteans, etc. If souls went to the stars through the channels created by the pyramids, then it begs the assumption: are these not astral channels (channels for entering the "astral")? After all, the word "astral" in Greek means stellar.
It is noteworthy that in occult teachings there are three main planes of existence: physical, astral and mental-spiritual. In Agni Yoga, for example, these are: the dense world, the subtle world and the fiery world. By the way, according to the teachings of Agni Yoga, the spiritual basis of the universe, through which movement along the path of perfection takes place, is a certain "Hierarchy of Light, Brotherhood, High Spirits united for the sake of work for the Common Good." It seems that these lofty names conceal none other than fallen angels who have taught people unholy and pernicious "perfection" and movement along the path of "progress" — in evil.…
"THE GIANTS WILL BE CALLED EVIL SPIRITS ON EARTH..."
According to the Book of Enoch, the Lord Himself told him the following:
"Listen up! Do not be afraid, Enoch, you are a righteous man and a scribe of righteousness; come here and listen to My word! And go, tell the guardians of heaven who sent you to plead for them: you must plead for people, not people for you. Why have you forsaken the most high, holy, eternal heaven, and lain with wives, and defiled yourselves with the daughters of men, and taken wives for yourselves, and behaved like the sons of the earth, and begat gigantic sons?
Being spiritual, holy, and in the enjoyment of eternal life, you have become defiled with wives, given birth to children through the blood of the flesh, coveted the blood of men, and produced flesh and blood, as those who are mortal and corruptible produce. That's why I gave them wives, so that they could impregnate them and through them give birth to children, as is usually the case on earth. But you were spiritual before, called to enjoy eternal, immortal life for all the generations of the world. Therefore, I have not created wives for you, for the spiritual have their abode in heaven.
And now the giants who were born of body and flesh will be called evil spirits on earth, and their dwelling place will be on earth. Evil beings come out of their bodies; since they were created from above and their origin and first origin were from the holy guardians [angels], they will be evil spirits on earth, and will be called evil spirits. And the spirits of heaven have their home in heaven, and the spirits of the earth, born on earth, have their home on earth. And the spirits of giants who rush to the clouds [isn't it through astral channels?], will perish, and will be overthrown [maybe that's why the word "nephilim" means "fallen"?], and they will commit violence, and cause destruction on earth, and cause disasters; they will not take food, and they will not thirst, and they will be invisible.
And those beings will not rebel against the sons of men and against the wives, because they are descended from them. In the days of the slaughter and destruction and death of the giants, as soon as the souls leave their bodies, their bodies must perish without judgment; so they will perish until the day when the great judgment will be carried out on the great world — on the guards and wicked people.
And now tell the guards who sent you to intercede for them, and who used to live in heaven, now tell them: "You have been in heaven, and although the hidden things have not yet been revealed to you, yet you have learned an insignificant secret and told it in your hardness of heart to your wives, and through this secret of the wife and husbands do a lot of harm to the earth." Tell them, 'There is no peace for you.'"
Thus, if you believe the Book of Enoch, it turns out that on earth now, as in the entire post—flood history of mankind, invisible evil spirits (demons) live and commit evil deeds ("commit violence, produce destruction, cause disasters...") - and they (or a certain part of them), it turns out, are the spirits of the antediluvian the giants. Then maybe it is them that the apostle Paul calls the spirits of wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12)? And after all, many pagan gods (who, according to the Holy Scriptures, are demons (Ps. 95, 5.)), for example, the titans from Greek mythology, are certain gigantic people deified by pagans. And it turns out that the essence of the struggle of the Old Testament prophets and the New Testament Church of Christ against paganism (idolatry) is the confrontation between the worship of the true God and the worship of fallen angels and their descendants, the nephilim (false gods), as gods.

From all this follows the following assumption, which is relevant for the pre-finite time we are experiencing. Maybe it is these evil spirits (nephilim) who want to come to our world today, posing as aliens, as representatives of a higher race from a parallel world, or as Atlantean survivors?
In general, if we accept the version of the Book of Enoch, then many things seem to fall into place, many riddles and mysteries find a completely logical explanation.
For example, it becomes clear the general basis of those numerous ancient myths and legends that speak of gods descending from heaven, of the indignation of some gods against others and the war of the gods, of higher and lower gods (For example, in Sumerian, Akkadian, Assyrian and Babylonian mythologies, lower gods (earthly and underground) and higher, heavenly (who gave birth to the lower ones)), about the children of the gods and the marriages of gods and men, as a result of which certain demigods (giants, cyclopes ("Some scientists are inclined to believe that the Cyclops mentioned by Homer in the adventures of Odysseus, could have existed in reality. There was a report in the foreign press that a giant skull with one eye socket was discovered on one of the islands of the Pacific Ocean in 1989" (Encyclopedia of Miracles, Riddles and Mysteries edited by M. Golubev)) and others), about giants fighting against gods and people, etc. ("The fall of men and angels or titans, the struggle of giants against the gods are found in all mythologies... Plutarch ... sees in the gods of Egypt not deified people, but demons" (Louis Menard, "Experience on the origin of hermetic books")).
It also makes clearer the general basis of numerous modern versions and reports of contacts with "extraterrestrial civilizations", "parallel worlds", etc.
Taking into account the words of the Book of Enoch that giants will be called evil spirits on earth and will be invisible, materials like the following are read in a new and, so to speak, more clearly.
"NASA Advisor: Are aliens evil spirits or demons"
Leading scientists in the field of space technology have proved that extraterrestrials have never visited Earth, the Christian Megaportal reports invictory.org with reference to the press center of the Emanuel Association.
"It is clearly written in the Bible that there are evil spirits or demons that can appear to people, and most likely, these eyewitnesses encountered them, not aliens," said Ellsworth E. Gerrels, NASA technical and scientific adviser, during a lecture at the Immanuel Association, Kiev.".
At the beginning of this article, the question was posed: "Are the Nephilim aliens?" Now, considering all of the above, perhaps the answer to this question should be as follows: are nephilim not aliens, but (so-called) aliens are (actually) nephilim (evil spirits)?
In any case, the main thing is clear.: "aliens" are evil spirits, demons..."

Ephesians 6:12 - King James Version (KJV)
<12> For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
"During the time of the Antichrist, people will be waiting for salvation from outer space. This will be the devil's biggest trick."
Elder Gabriel (Urgebadze)
One of the most difficult biblical passages to interpret is the account contained in the Book of Genesis about some unusual marital relationship between the "sons of God" and the "daughters of men." Further, the Bible speaks about the appearance of certain giants on earth, about the extreme corruption of mankind and its subsequent destruction by a Worldwide flood, from which only the family of righteous Noah was saved in the ark.
In the "Biblical Encyclopedia" Archim. Nikephoros (1891), in an article about the giants, says that they "oppressed and enslaved their brothers and, by their way of life, spread wickedness and corruption even among the descendants of Seth, so that God condemned the depraved human race to be destroyed by the flood. As can be seen from the video. According to the Scriptures (Deuteronomy 3:11, Numbers 13:34, 1 Samuel 13:4), such great-sized people existed after the flood, which is even confirmed by the human skeletons and bones found in the earth today much larger than ordinary ones."
Here are just some of the similar findings.
In 1577, in one of the caves of Switzerland, a giant human skeleton was discovered, its length exceeded 5 meters. This skeleton was displayed in the city museum and was kept there for almost a century.
In South Africa, in the province of Transvaal, in 1912, a farmer discovered the footprint of a giant human foot on a rock. Its size is 1.3 meters long and 76 centimeters wide. 40 years after this discovery, journalist David Barritt, who visited this plateau, described the trail as follows: "The footprint is pressed into the granite rock by as much as 12 cm. It would take a lot of work to carve such a fake in this hardest granite. In addition, the giant's footprint bears absolutely no traces of processing. Apparently, it was left on a horizontal slab, which was placed vertically by seismic or other cataclysms. The aborigines of the local tribes consider it sacred and believe in supernatural origin. However, one thing is absolutely irrefutable: cutting out such an imprint in a granite rock, even by modern means, is a very difficult task. Meanwhile, the aborigines have been commemorating him in their legends since time immemorial."

The exact same print was found on the island of Ceylon. The famous Arab traveler of the XIV century, ibn Battuta, who visited Ceylon, described this trail: "I had only one desire to visit Adam's holy foot." In Ceylon, Sri Lanka, there is the famous Adam's Peak, at the top of which stands a black rock. It is on it that the footprint is located. Ibn Battuta determined its dimensions: the length of the foot is 1.5 meters, the width is about 80 centimeters. Later, scientists determined the approximate height of the giant – 10.2 meters.

In 1930, in Australia, near Basarst, prospectors at the jasper mines often found fossilized prints of huge human feet. The race of giant humans whose remains were found in Australia, anthropologists called the megantropuses. The height of these people ranged from 2.10 to 3.65 meters. An anthropological expedition that specifically explored the area in 1985 for the remains of Meganthropuses conducted excavations at a depth of up to three meters from the earth's surface. Australian researchers have found, among other things, a fossilized molar with a height of 67 and a width of 42 millimeters. The owner of the tooth must have been at least 7.5 meters tall.
Meganthropuses are similar to gigantopithecus, the remains of which were discovered in China. Judging by the fragments of jaws and many teeth found, the height of the Chinese giants ranged from 3 to 3.5 meters.
And so on…
Giants, giants, giants, Titans, Atlanteans… All these words are similar in meaning. Myths of many peoples speak of ancient giants who possess amazing technology of megalithic construction. It is believed that the name "Atlantis" came from Atlas, the brother of Prometheus, one of the titans of Greek mythology. The Titans (in later myths they are confused with giants) are giant gods born by the goddess of the earth Gaia from drops of blood of the god of heaven Uranus; they rebelled against the king of gods and men Zeus and other gods of the Olympic pantheon, were defeated by them and cast into the depths of the earth.
ARE THE NEPHILIM ALIENS?
In the Hebrew text of the Holy Scriptures, the giants are called by the word nephilim. Although in Scripture this term sometimes serves as a designation for giants or giants (Numbers 13: 33-34), the main meaning of this word is "destroyers, overthrowers", as well as those who corrupt, make them fall; according to another translation— "fallen people". Therefore, the antediluvian nephilim are not only giants, but also subversives, rebels who rebelled against God, participants in a God—fighting, Satanic project aimed at involving humanity in the cult of Satan worship and the destruction of human souls, spiritual murder.
Strictly speaking, it is not quite correct to say "nephilim", because in Hebrew, Nephilim is already the plural. This word comes from the Semitic root NFL (Nafal/Nefel — nafal/nephil) — "to plunge (fall) down." The ending "-im" is typical for plural nouns.
And the word "fallen" (as a possible translation of the word nephilim) reminds of demons. Perhaps the following quote from V. I. Shcherbakov's book "All about Atlantis" is a confirmation of this: "According to the beliefs of the Papuans, the great disaster [The worldwide flood (Here and further in square brackets are the notes of the author of this article.) it happened back when the earth was inhabited not by humans, but by intelligent beings with magical properties, extraordinarily powerful and wise. These creatures are ["sons of God"? The Nephilim?] they are called "dema" in myths — isn't it very close in sound to the European concept of "demon"?".
Before the story of the Flood, it is written in the Book of Genesis (synodal translation, from the Hebrew text): "When people began to multiply on earth and their daughters were born, then the sons of God [ben Elohim — aram. When they saw the daughters of men that they were beautiful, they took them to be their wives, whichever one they chose. And the LORD God said, My Spirit shall not despise these men forever, for they are flesh; let their days be an hundred and twenty years. There were giants on earth at that time [nephilim], especially since the time when [according to another translation, "At that time, as well as later, there were giants on the earth, for ..."] the sons of God began to enter into the daughters of men, and they began to give birth to them: these are strong, glorious people from ancient times" (Gen. 6:1-4).
In the translation made according to the Septuagint (i.e. from the Greek text), the words of the Lord ("My Spirit does not last forever..." and so on) have the following form: "My breath in a person is not forever. He is only flesh, and may his life span be one hundred and twenty years." However, in the Hebrew text (which is recognized by the translators as unclear at this point) this phrase literally begins like this: "Don't rebel (fight, be indignant) My Spirit is in man forever...". Today, bearing in mind what is revealed to us about the antediluvian world, it can be assumed that these words of God indicate some kind of rebellion, the indignation of antediluvian people against God the Creator, which consisted in participating in certain God-fighting, satanic projects and designs. An additional confirmation of this understanding of this passage in the Bible is that it is immediately followed by a story about the Nephilim.

And immediately after the words about the Nephilim, God's definition of the destruction of depraved humanity follows.: "And the Lord God saw that the wickedness of men was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts and thoughts of their hearts were evil at all times; and the Lord repented that he had made man on the earth, and was grieved in his heart. And the LORD said, "I will destroy from the face of the earth the men whom I have created, both man and beast, and the creeping things and the birds of the air, for I have repented that I created them" (Gen. 6:5-7).
Some interpreters explain the words "let their days be one hundred and twenty years" as follows: the spirit that the Lord has put into a person will now leave the body sooner than before, namely, after 120 years, and since then this number means maximum longevity. According to other interpreters, "these words cannot be understood in the sense of shortening human life to the limits of one hundred and twenty years (as understood by I. Flavius, Antiquities 1,3,2), since it is reliably known that for a long time after the flood, mankind lived for more than 120 years, sometimes reaching up to 500, and they should be seen as the time appointed by God for repentance and correction of people, during which the righteous Noah prophesied about the flood and made appropriate preparations for it" ("The Explanatory Bible" edited by Professor A. P. Lopukhin).
For a very long time, Noah built the ark on land, most likely far from the sea, and all people could watch; all these years Noah preached the truth (2 Peter 2:5). "In the days of Noah, during the building of the ark" God's long-suffering awaited the disobedient, as it is said in the Apostle Peter (1 Peter 3:20), but they did not repent.…
There is the following explanation for the difficult—to-understand words - that God repented that He created man.: «…This text is one example of how God's behavior is fundamentally different from ours. Human remorse in Hebrew is expressed by the verb "shuvv," which literally means "to turn 180 degrees." God's condition is described by the verb "naham." This verb does not express regret, nor a desire to reverse something, but a deep sigh that a person can take when his heart hurts. In other words, when God sees all this corruption and evil in humanity, His heart aches." In the Old Slavonic Bible: "... and God thought, as He created man on earth, and thought."
God created man according to His plan (the Hebrew word translated in Genesis 2, 7 as "created" has exactly this meaning), but man, incited by fallen angels, used the freedom given to him for evil purposes. The path that humanity embarked on did not correspond to the Divine plan for man, the high destiny and dignity of man.
"And the Lord God saw that the wickedness of men was great on the earth, and that all the thoughts and thoughts of their hearts were evil at all times... the earth was corrupted before God, and the earth was filled with wickedness... for all flesh had corrupted his way on the earth" (Gen. 6, 5 and 11-12). There is hardly a stronger statement of humanity's sinfulness in the Bible. What is said here in the Book of Genesis allows us to get into the essence of seemingly ordinary (judging by the way the Gospel says about it) things that happened "in the days before the flood," when people "ate, drank, married and were married until the day Noah entered the ark" (Matthew 24:38).
There are different versions regarding the origin of the Nephilim.
A fairly common view is that the "sons of God" who belonged to the "daughters of men" were fallen angels, and the "nephilim" were descendants from such marriages. Proponents of this understanding refer, in particular, to the Book of Job, where in several places the term "sons of God" clearly refers to angels (e.g. Job 2:1: "There was a day when the sons of God came to stand before the Lord; Satan also came among them to stand before the Lord"). In the Septuagint translation, instead of "sons of God," it says: "angels of God."
Opponents of this point of view completely exclude the possibility of angels cohabiting with women, referring to the statement of Jesus Christ that people after the resurrection from the dead "will neither marry nor marry, but will be like Angels in heaven" (Mark 12:25). However, the Lord is still speaking here about the heavenly life of the holy angels, and not about the earthly activities of the fallen angels.
Some modern authors suggest that fallen angels on earth could use the bodily shell of vicious people in order to give birth to a vicious and corrupt generation (which is mentioned in the 6th chapter of the Book of Genesis: "And the Lord God looked upon the earth, and, behold, it was corrupt, for all flesh had corrupted its way on the earth.")
https://avatars.dzeninfra.ru/get-zen_doc/271828/pub_68e40fb4ed5a8020633a8d1b_68e41c148581124b034e885d/scale_1200
There is also a newfangled "UFO" hypothesis, according to which the "nephilim" and/or "sons of God" from Genesis chapter 6 are aliens who arrived on Earth many millennia ago and taught humanity how to build pyramids, as well as gave many other knowledge and skills. This hypothesis is based on the so–called theory of paleovisites or palekontact (from the Greek palaios - ancient), according to which traces of visits by certain space aliens remain in the monuments of the most ancient culture of mankind. Adherents of this theory claim that extraterrestrials encrypted some valuable information in the pyramids and their other creations.
In general, fantasies on this topic are diverse. According to one version, highly advanced aliens created humans. According to other versions, aliens came to Earth, built pyramids and other mysterious objects, and then either left or were destroyed by earthlings. And there is such a variation: aliens destroyed the civilization of earthlings who built the pyramids, and all of today's humanity supposedly descended from those aliens.
V. Koneles (one of the authors who adheres to the hypothesis of paleocontact) in his book "Descended from heaven and created people" (Moscow, 2000) writes:
"The Sumerians claim that all the diverse knowledge and technology ("wisdom") were transmitted to them by the Anunnaki "descended from heaven." As it appears from the Sumerian texts, the Anunnaki/Anakim/Nephilim arrived on Earth 120 "years" (according to their calculations) before the Flood, that is, about 445,000 years ago in our time...
It seems that after finding rich placer deposits over time, they began mining gold in southeast Africa. This labor was more like hard labor for life, and about 300,000 years ago, the Anunnaki, who worked in the African mines, rebelled. And then the chief scientist of Ea and the senior physician of the Anunnaki, the goddess Ninti, created "primitive workers" — homo sapiens with the help of genetic manipulation... Mesopotamian, Old Testament and apocryphal texts claim that "those who descended from heaven" often "combined" with earthly women. As a result, demigod hybrids appeared in the respective regions."
Some modern authors, like the "famous classifier of the unknown" Zachariah Sitchin, "convincingly prove" that all ancient religions are based on the knowledge of the existence of the planet Nibiru (also known as Planet X) in our Solar System, whose inhabitants, visiting Earth from time to time, laid the foundations of the most ancient terrestrial civilization and left numerous traces in the cosmogonic mythologies of mankind.
In the books of supporters of the theory of paleocontact, the following version of the translation of the first verses of the 6th chapter of Genesis is given: "In those days, there were Nephilim on Earth [Descended from Heaven], and also after the sons of God [direct descendants of the Anunnaki] began to mate with the daughters of Adam and they began to give birth to them. They were mighty people from shem [who came] from Eternity" (Sitchin Z., "The Twelfth Planet"). By the word shem, the authors who adhere to the paleocontact version understand a "heavenly fire ship" or "flying machine".
Church pastors and Orthodox authors of materials devoted to the "UFO phenomenon" warn and explain to overly gullible contemporaries that the messengers of "extraterrestrial civilizations" and "parallel worlds" appear to people none other than demons, evil spirits. This topic is well covered, for example, in the book "Orthodoxy and the Religion of the Future" by Hieromonk Seraphim (Rose).

"UFO encounters," wrote Fr. Serafim, "are nothing more than a modern form of occult phenomena that have existed for many centuries. People have abandoned Christianity and are waiting for "saviors" from outer space; that is why the phenomenon gives images of interplanetary ships and aliens. But what exactly is this phenomenon? Who is involved in the "development" of these scenes and for what purpose?
...Some, or even many, of the reports are fakes or the results of hallucinations; but it is simply impossible to discard everything, including many thousands of UFO reports in this category. A great many modern mediums and their spiritualistic phenomena are also scams; but mediumistic spiritualism itself, in its genuine form, certainly produces real "paranormal" phenomena under the influence of demons. UFO phenomena having the same origin are no less real... Demons also have "physical bodies", however, their "matter" is so subtle that they cannot be visible to a person unless his spiritual "doors of perception" are opened by God's permission (as in saints) or against him (as in saints sorcerers and mediums).
Orthodox literature provides many examples of demonic phenomena that fit exactly into the UFO pattern: visions of "corporeal" beings and "tangible" objects (whether the demons themselves or their illusory creations) that instantly "materialize" and "dematerialize," always with the aim of intimidating people and bringing them closer to destruction. The lives of the fourth-century saint Anthony the Great and the third-century saint Cyprian, the former Magus, are full of similar cases…
It is clear that the phenomena of today's "flying saucers" are well within the capabilities of demonic "technology"; indeed, there is no better explanation for these phenomena.… And the purpose of "unidentified" objects in such contacts is quite clear: to awe witnesses and create a sense of "mystery" and "provide proof" of the existence of "higher forms of intelligence" ("angels" if the victim believes in them, or "visitors from outer space" for modern humans), and thus ensure faith. the message they want to convey…
Of course, man cannot fully "explain" the invisible world of angels and demons; but we have been given enough Christian knowledge to understand how these creatures operate in our world and how we should respond to their actions, especially how to avoid demonic snares."
"ENOCH, THE SEVENTH FROM ADAM, ALSO PROPHESIED, SAYING..."
The interpretation that the "sons of God" in Genesis 6 are angels was widely known in the early centuries of the Christian era. This understanding was accepted by both the Jewish interpreters (Philo) and the early fathers and teachers of the Church: Justin the Philosopher, Irenaeus, Athenagoras, Tertullian, Clement of Alexandria, Ambrose.
However, since the fourth century, a different understanding of this mysterious biblical place began to spread in church literature. It has been suggested that the "sons of God" are pious Sethites, descendants of the righteous Seth (the third son of Adam and Eve, the ancestor of Enoch and Noah), and the "daughters of men" are Cainite women, vicious representatives of the family of Cain (the first son of Adam and Eve, who killed his brother Abel). This interpretation was inherent in John Chrysostom, Ephraim the Syrian, Blessed. Theodoret, Cyril of Jerusalem, Jerome, Augustine.
Among the early Christians, the Book of Enoch, which is now considered an apocrypha, had great authority. — hidden, hidden, secret.). It follows that the "sons of God" are "angels who descended from heaven to earth and revealed to the sons of men what was hidden, and tempted the sons of men to commit sins" (Enoch 10:64).

The angels (called "guardians of heaven" in the Book of Enoch) entered into a criminal alliance with the women who seduced them and taught people magic (magic), astrology, spells (witchcraft), various "angelic secrets" and "devilish powers" (according to another translation — inventions), as a result of which "great wickedness appeared on earth" (Enoch 2:15).
"And the angels, the sons of heaven, saw them [the wives], and desired them, and said one to another: "Let us choose wives among the sons of men and bear ourselves children!" Then they all swore an oath together and pledged everything to each other with spells: there were only two hundred of them. And they went down to Ardis, which is the top of Mount Hermon; and they called it Mount Hermon, because they swore an oath on it and pronounced curses to one another.…

And they took wives for themselves, and each chose one for himself; and they began to enter into them and mingle with them, and taught them magic and spells, and revealed to them the cutting of roots and trees. They conceived and gave birth to great giants, whose height was three thousand cubits. They ate up all the people's gains, so that people could no longer feed them. Then the giants turned against the people themselves to devour them... And they began to sin against birds and beasts, and things that move, and fish, and began to devour their flesh with one another and drink their blood from it..." (Enoch 2).
V. P. Vikhlyantsev's "Bible Dictionary" indicates that Enoch is "the seventh from Adam, a righteous man who rebuked the world and prophesied about the coming judgment. He was taken by God to heaven without experiencing death (God took Enoch away at the age of 365 in 987 from the Creation of the world, Noah was born in 1056). The ancients considered him the first scientist to invent writing, counting, and the beginning of astronomy. Between the 2nd century B.C. and the 2nd century A.D., a book named after him was widely known, but it was not included in the canon. It was found in the 18th century in Abyssinia (present-day Ethiopia), and it turned out that the prophecy of Enoch in Judah. 14-15 is taken almost verbatim from this book. This book speaks on behalf of Enoch and Noah about God's governance of the world, about the personality and actions of the Messiah, about the last judgment. The Church fathers almost unanimously considered him and the prophet Elijah to be the two witnesses mentioned in Revelation 11:3-12."
The Book of Enoch was referred to by Clement of Alexandria, Origen, Tertullian, as well as the author of the non-canonical Epistle of Barnabas; the latter even spoke of it as part of the Holy Scriptures. However, after the canon of Scripture was formed, the authority of the Book of Enoch faded, and its text was lost. It was rediscovered only in 1773 in the Ethiopian (Amhara) language, in a double translation from Aramaic or Hebrew through Greek, but in full, which is a huge rarity. Subsequently, two large fragments of a Greek text were found during excavations in Ahmim (Egypt), and a large number of short Aramaic fragments were found in Qumran (Palestine). Their comparison allows us to consider the full text (in Ethiopian) authentic. The Russian translation of the Book of Enoch was made from German and published together with the commentary in 1888 in Kazan by Archpriest Alexander Smirnov.
"In fact, today we know of three works written on behalf of the biblical patriarch Enoch, the oldest of which is the so—called "First Book of Enoch" (IV/III-I centuries BC), preserved in the Ethiopian version.…
The first three Ethiopian manuscripts of the book were discovered by J. Bruce was born in Abyssinia and brought to Europe in 1773. The first European translation (into English) was carried out by R. Lawrence and published in Oxford in 1821. The text was translated into Russian by A. V. Smirnov in 1888. The Ethiopian version is probably a translation from the original Greek of the IV-VI centuries. The Ethiopian (Coptic) Church considered the Book of Enoch to be canonical, which is why it has been preserved to this day in its entirety" (P. V. Bersnev. "The Old Testament Apocrypha: The Book of Enoch; The Book of Jubilees, or Genesis Minor; The Covenants of the Twelve Patriarchs; the Psalms of Solomon").

In the New Testament, an indirect reference to the Book of Enoch is given by the Apostle Peter: "God did not spare the angels who sinned, but, binding them with the bonds of the darkness of hell, He delivered them up to be judged for punishment" (2 Peter 2:4). What is meant here is the fall of the angels described in the Book of Enoch, which occurred in the pre-flood period of human history, obviously confirmed by the subsequent words of the apostle that that God "did not spare the first world, but preserved in eight souls the family of Noah, the preacher of righteousness, when He brought the flood upon the world of the wicked" (2 Peter 2:5).
And the apostle Judas says that the Lord "also keeps the angels, who have not preserved their dignity, but have forsaken their dwelling, in eternal bonds, in darkness, for the judgment of the great day" (Jude 5-6). It is in these terms that this theme (the fall and punishment of angels) is presented in the Book of Enoch, which the apostle Judas quotes further in his epistle.: "... Enoch, the seventh from Adam, also prophesied, saying, 'Behold, the Lord is coming with thousands of his holy angels to execute judgment on all and to convict all the wicked among them of all the deeds that their wickedness has done, and of all the cruel words that wicked sinners have spoken against him'" (Jude 14-15).
"AND AZAZEL TAUGHT PEOPLE..."
According to the Book of Enoch, the fallen angels, acting out of their pride "as if they were equal to God" (Enoch 11:33), taught people not only magic, witchcraft and astrology (i.e., what is now in Hinduism, Buddhism, Krishnaism and other "Eastern religions and spiritual practices", as well as in theosophy, Freemasonry and other occult teachings, is called "hidden wisdom", "secret knowledge", "secrets of the ancients", "secrets of the Tibetan lamas", etc.), but also many "practical inventions" and "arts". Here are some of them:
mining and processing of metals;making weapons, military "art";"writing with ink and using paper"; the art of "cutting roots"; abortions; cosmetics, jewelry.
In the Book of Enoch, the names of some guardian angels are given and it is indicated what each of them taught people.:
https://avatars.dzeninfra.ru/get-zen_doc/271828/pub_68e40fb4ed5a8020633a8d1b_68e41c828581124b034ee55e/scale_1200
"And Azazel taught people how to make swords, and knives, and shields, and shells [that's where wars and the production of weapons originate in mankind; historians say that in the ancient world, making weapons was considered a mystical process, as was metalworking in general; numerous mentions of gold and other metals in ancient texts indicate that people mastered the basics of metallurgy in ancient times], and taught them to see what was behind them [now called "paranormal abilities"], and taught them the arts: wrists, and jewelry, and the use of whitewash and blush, and eyebrow embellishment [cosmetics], and the adornment of the most precious and excellent stones, and all kinds of colored materials and metals of the earth.

And great wickedness and many obscenities appeared, and people sinned, and all their ways became corrupt (Cf. Gen. 6, 5 and 11-12.). Amezarak taught all kinds of spells and root-cutting [given the context, we can conclude about the magical nature of the art of "root-cutting"; apparently, it was directed not so much for healing, as much as for drug addiction combined with magic], Armaros for the breaking of spells, Barakal for stargazing, Kokabel for signs; and Temel taught stargazing, and Astradel taught the movement of the moon" (Enoch 2:14-16).
A guardian angel named Kasdeyya "showed people all the evil blows of spirits and demons." [this is where "spoiling", combat magic, martial arts, and so on originate from.], and blows of birth in the womb in order to eliminate it [this is already about abortions, "artificial termination of pregnancy", and in fact — the grave sin of infanticide], and soul blows, snake bites [poisons?], and strokes that occur at noon." And the guardian of Penemue "showed the sons of men the bitter and the sweet, and showed them all the secrets of their wisdom. He taught people how to write with ink and use paper, and through this many have sinned from age to age to this day. For people were not created so that they could consolidate their faithfulness (their word) in this way, with a stick and ink." (Enoch 11:42-44).
All this knowledge and skills acquired from fallen angels brought people much harm, as they were soul-destroying, "for men were created no differently from angels so that they might remain righteous and pure, and death, which destroys all, would not touch them, but they perish through this knowledge" (Enoch 11, 45).
And that's exactly why: "A decree has come out from the presence of the Lord concerning those who live in the firmament, that their end must come [The flood], because they know all the secrets of angels, and all the power of devils, and all their hidden power, and all the power of those who perform magic, and the power of spells, and the power of those who cast images of idols for the whole earth; and they also know well how silver is made from the dust of the earth, and how liquid metal is formed on the earth" (Enoch 11:7).
Wikipedia reports about Azazel: "In the Book of Enoch, Azazel is the leader of the antediluvian giants who rebelled against God. He invented weapons and cosmetics, taught men to fight and women the art of deception, seduced people into godlessness and taught them debauchery."
In another source we read: "In the apocryphal Book of Enoch (2nd century BC), Azazel appears as a fallen angel, a seducer of humanity, a kind of negative cultural hero who taught men war and the craft of a gunsmith, and women the prodigal arts of face painting and the mortal sin of abortion (killing a living baby in the womb); this act of civilizing hostile to God is associated with the motive of fornication between angels ("sons of God") and "daughters of men" (Gen. 6:2), as well as the appearance of a breed of "giants" from this fornication (6: 4-5), who were inspired in their rebellion against God by Azazel ("The Book of Enoch" 8). For this, Azazel is bound by the archangel Raphael, and after the last judgment he will be thrown into the fire (Book of Enoch, chapter 2: "And the Lord said again to Raphael: "Bind Azazel hand and foot and lay him in the darkness; make a hole in the desert that is in Dudael, and lower him there."… And God said to Gabriel: "Go to the illegitimate children, and to the adulterers, and to the children of fornication, and destroy the children of fornication and the children of the guardians from among men."; Bring them out and let them go, so that they may destroy themselves by beating one another, for they must not have a long life.… And God said to Michael: "Destroy Semyaza and his accomplices, who have joined themselves to their wives in order to corrupt themselves with them in all their uncleanness. When all their sons mutually beat each other and they see the destruction of their favorites, then bind them tightly under the hills of the earth for seventy births until the day of judgment on them and until the end of childbirth, until the last judgment for all eternity is completed."). Hints of this version are also scattered in Talmudic literature, where Azazel is sometimes identified with Satan or Samael, and his name is also associated with the names of Uzah and Azael, fallen angels who converged with women. The name Azazel, as one of the traditional names of the demon, was used in fiction (for example, in M. Bulgakov's novel "The Master and Margarita" — in the Italianized form "Azazello")"
Indeed, the image of this fallen angel is very "actively" present in fiction and cinema.
Here are some examples.
In Mikhail Bulgakov's novel The Master and Margarita, Azazello is "a member of Satan's retinue, a killer demon with a repulsive appearance. The prototype of this character was the fallen angel Azazel (who later became a desert demon in Jewish beliefs), mentioned in the apocryphal book of Enoch, one of the angels whose actions on earth provoked the wrath of God and the Flood. By the way, Azazel is a demon who gave men weapons and women cosmetics and mirrors. It is no coincidence that he goes to Margarita to give her the cream" (The Master and Margarita // Wikipedia).
"Azazel" is the name of a conspiracy mystery novel by the famous modern writer Boris Akunin (the first novel in a series that tells about the adventures of detective Erast Fandorin), where Azazel is the symbol, password and patron of a secret world organization led by a certain Lady Esther, obsessed with the idea of world domination. "According to Lady Esther's theory, humanity would have perished long ago if it weren't for the special personalities that appear among people from time to time. Thanks to each of them, humanity has made a leap forward. Prometheus gave people fire.
Moses is the concept of the law. Christ gave people a moral law. Azazel Lady Esther is not one of the guises of Satan. This is the Jewish hero from the Book of Enoch. "He became imbued with love for people and revealed to them the secrets he had learned in heaven." According to Lady Esther, Azazel... taught man a sense of self-worth... "God only dealt man the cards. Azazel teaches you how to play to win" (Prose.ru). And here's another reader's review: "So why Azazel? For some, he is a servant of Satan (if not Satan himself), who "teaches people all sorts of rubbish: men to fight and make weapons, women to paint their faces and etch the fruit." And someone thinks that: "Thanks to Azazel, a man can practice crafts and protect his home.
Thanks to Azazel, a woman turned from a fruitful, uncomplaining female into an equal human being with the freedom to choose whether to be ugly or beautiful, to be a mother or an Amazon, to live for the sake of her family or for the sake of all mankind." It's the same thing from two different sides... It seems to me that if the "Azazelites" had remained true to their original "ideal" idea of bringing knowledge and progress to people, even if they were leading them at the same time, then they could have been understood and accepted. But when they began to mix up with dubious personalities, kill and do evil for their own purposes, all these ideal goals faded into the background. The end does not always justify the means" (livelib.ru ). And the movie based on this novel is called "Azazel".
In addition, Azazel is: a supervillain of comic books published by Marvel Comics; one of the demons trying to free Lucifer in the American mystical television series Supernatural produced by Warner Brothers; an antagonist in the 2004-2005 British television series Witch, fallen angel, lord of the Nephilim; one of the heroes of the American fantasy mini-series Fallen; one of the characters of the Tekken 6 video game and the main boss of this game. Azzie is the main character in the fantasy trilogy "The Story of the Red Demon" co—written by Robert Sheckley and Roger Zelazny. And so on…
This is what "civilization" has turned out to be in humanity: occultism, science, technology, debauchery, violence, infanticide, theology… In all these directions, the "development" of "modern civilization" is rapidly taking place, bringing it closer to its inevitable conclusion — the end of the world and the Last Judgment of God.
The end of the first world (the antediluvian civilization) was the Worldwide Flood, as stated by the Apostle Peter — that God "did not spare the first world" and "brought the flood upon the world of the wicked" (2 Peter 2:5). And in another place: "In the beginning, by the word of God, the heavens and the earth were made of water and water: therefore the world of that time perished, being drowned by water. But the heavens and earth of today, which are contained in the same Word, are being preserved to the Fire for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men" (2 Peter 3:5-7).
"Ancient and sacred writings," wrote cultural historian F. F. Zelinsky in his work Hermes Thrice the Greatest, "say that some angels, inflamed with love for women, descended to earth and taught them the secrets of nature: as a result, they were banished from heaven and doomed to eternal wandering. From this connection came the family of giants. The book they taught the arts from is called Chema; hence the word chema preferably means "art", namely chemistry. Now let's remember that chema is an Egyptian word meaning "to turn black".; now, I think, the words of the Virgin of the World [Isis] are clear, that Hermes-Kamefis "honored her with the blackness of perfection," which means: "taught her chemistry" — as a reward for her love. Indeed, chemistry, as Egypt knew it, was the art of making gold and silver, especially the first" (From the life of ideas. Vol. III. — St. Petersburg, 1908).
Based on the Book of Enoch, it can be assumed that the "fantastic construction technologies" (in the words of modern researchers), with which the antediluvian pyramids were built, were also taught to people by fallen angels.
ATLANTIS OR AN ANTEDILUVIAN CIVILIZATION?
The builders of the pyramids and other objects of the antediluvian God—defying system were apparently Nephilim, who were involved in this project by fallen angels, led by Satan.
The pyramids were built before the Flood, and now we can only see the remains of this destroyed system (which included the pyramids); and many more remains are at the bottom of the seas and oceans. In addition to Egypt, giant pyramid structures have been found in Mexico, South America, China, India, Southeast Asia, Bosnia, Crimea, the Atlantic Ocean, the Sea of Japan... scattered around the world are remnants of an antediluvian civilization. — these are not only grandiose pyramids, but also other mysterious objects: huge stone statues on Easter Island, Stonehenge in England, numerous monuments, obelisks, megaliths and other structures, as well as undeciphered writings, ancient maps, giant terrestrial geometric shapes, drawings and lines (for example, in the Peruvian Nazca desert), other amazing images and objects.

When the ruins of grandiose structures and other traces of an antediluvian civilization are found and explored, various assumptions are put forward, versions are invented.: "This is where Atlantis was located!", "These objects were built by aliens!", etc. And this is not Atlantis or aliens, but an antediluvian civilization. Or, if we use the word "Atlantis", then we must admit that the "Atlantean civilization" (giants, giants) was not located on a submerged island in the Atlantic Ocean or in any particular region of the planet, but was spread throughout the earth, i.e. it was, as they say, global.
"Moses, in Genesis, and Plato, according to Indicoplas, say the same thing: the antediluvian world is nothing but "Atlantis," and the ten Atlantean kings are "ten generations from Adam to Noah" (Jos. Peter, Atlantis, die versunkene Welt, s. 6. — K. Kretschmer, Die Entdeckung Americas, 1882)".
Quoted. by: Merezhkovsky D. S. The Mystery of the West. Atlantis is Europe.
Indicoplus – "9th century Byzantine monk, Kozma Indicoplus (Cosmos Indikopleustes). To his "Christian Topography", Topographia Christiana, he attached a childishly ridiculous map of the globe: the inner sphere, a continuous continent surrounded by the sea, does not hold on to anything, as if hanging in the air, and is surrounded by a second outer sphere, with the inscription: "The land beyond the ocean, where people lived before the flood, terra ultra oceanum, ubiante diluvium habitabant homines"" (D. S. Merezhkovsky, ed. op.).

Almost every culture has legends about sunken cities and continents, about ancient developed civilizations, about certain superhumans, "cities of the gods", about the global catastrophe that our planet experienced several thousand years ago ("In almost all cultures of the world there are strikingly similar legends about the Universal Flood — there are more than five hundred of them. All these legends share the same plot: humanity is destroyed by a Flood, and only one person and his family are saved. In Western countries, this man is known as Noah, the Aztecs call him Nene, in the Middle East he is called "Atrahasis", Utnapishti or Ziusudra. As for the life-saving device, in the Bible it is called an "ark", that is, a ship; in Mesopotamian legends it is an underwater vessel, and in the legends of the Aztecs it is a hollowed-out log" (A. Alford, "The Gods of the New Millennium")). In fact, almost all of these legends (myths, tales, traditions) speak about one civilization — the antediluvian. Numerous finds, theories, and assumptions of "Atlantologists" — seekers of the lost Atlantis, as well as Lemuria, Hyperborea, Pacifida, Mu, and other "ancestral civilizations" - speak about it. After all, attempts to geographically record Atlantis were unsuccessful because the "ancient highly developed civilization" had not a regional, but a planetary scale.
Many modern researchers strongly reject the "official" versions that the ancient pyramids were built by the Egyptians, Indians, Chinese, etc. These researchers came to the conclusion that the pyramids were created by some ancient highly developed civilization; and they did not perform a funerary function, but were built as some kind of energy-informational structures, forming in their entirety a kind of global system, network, complex.

In China, several dozen huge pyramids are located in the middle of agricultural fields a few kilometers west of the city of Xianyang. Their height is higher than that of the Egyptian pyramids; the highest is 300 m (twice as high as the pyramid of Cheops). Why don't the Chinese announce loudly and to the whole world about the existence of such grandiose objects in China, which should seem to indicate how great and developed the ancient Chinese culture was? Because, first of all, they know that it was not the Chinese who built the pyramids in China, just as it was not the Egyptians in Egypt, the Mayans and Aztecs in Mexico, the Incas in Peru, etc.
For many years, the Chinese authorities deliberately concealed the existence of a large number of pyramids in China. It was only in 1997 that the German archaeologist Hartwig Hausdorff managed to obtain the consent of the authorities and visit the Chinese "Valley of the Pyramids". One of China's leading archaeologists, Professor Hia Nai, believes that these pyramids are not being explored today because "this is a job for future generations" (Komsomolskaya Pravda, March 13, 1999). Some researchers believe that Chinese scientists are afraid to invade the pyramids, fearing to find something there that could turn everything around our ideas about life on Earth. According to Chinese archaeologist Wong Shiping, the pyramids are arranged according to astronomical aspects and represent an example of the incredible knowledge of geometry and mathematics possessed by ancient people.

This makes it clear how weak the "traditional" explanation of the purpose of the pyramids as tombs of Chinese emperors proposed by "Egyptologists with Chinese characteristics" looks. According to more serious researchers, the pyramids are just part of a gigantic system of "holy lines" known in China as "feng Shui". In ancient scrolls dating back five thousand years, researchers find information according to which the authors of the grandiose project, of which the pyramids are a part, were the so-called "sons of heaven", who descended to earth several millennia ago on their metal "fire-breathing dragons."

The "sons of heaven" (as well as the "bird people" from the legends of the Indian tribe living on Easter Island) are, presumably, either antediluvian pyramid builders who could have had flying machines (there are archaeological finds indicating this), or simply demons who, as stated in the Holy Scriptures They can also appear to people in the form of "angels of light", for more convenient seduction.
Pyramids are found in the region of Tibet and the Himalayas. Ernst Muldashev, MD, who studied Tibet, writes about the 7-kilometer Mount Kailash, which, according to him, is an artificial superpyramid. In 1996, E. Muldashev organized the international trans-Himalayan expedition, which collected unique material "confirming the existence of the Atlantean civilization." (see E. Muldashev's books: "From whom we came", "In search of the City of the Gods").

"Every educated person has heard the legends about the powerful Atlanteans who lived on earth in time immemorial," E. Muldashev writes in the book "From whom we Descended." – In the specialized literature (H. P. Blavatsky, Eastern religions, etc.) it is said that before us there were several civilizations on Earth, the level of development of which was significantly higher than ours… Nostradamus wrote (1555) that the people of the previous civilization, whom he called the Atlanteans, possessed bioenergetic effects on gravity due to the "third eye".
Therefore, they could easily move huge stone blocks in space, build pyramids and other stone monuments out of them... It's hard to say who built the pyramids. But it cannot be ruled out that they were built by the Atlanteans even before the era of modern humans. The Egyptians and Mexicans may not be offended, but it is quite possible that they did not build the pyramids – their ancestors only came to the land of the pyramids and began to live next to the stone colossi.… I read from the same Nostradamus that as a result of a global catastrophe [i.e. The Global flood], which destroyed the Atlanteans, changed the axis of rotation of the Earth and shifted the poles."

We, as Orthodox Christians, of course, should not forget that the revelations of such "great initiates and clairvoyants" as Nostradamus, Blavatsky, Wang (who also spoke about some ancient highly developed civilization), Edgar Cayce (an American "clairvoyant" who had many "revelations" about the pyramids and "Atlantis"), should always be treated critically, because, as the Orthodox Church warns us, these "prophets" are not from God...
The founder of the Theosophical Society, H. P. Blavatsky, wrote in her Secret Doctrine that only the adherents of occult teachings now have the religion that the Atlanteans had several thousand years ago. Theosophists call Atlantis the cradle of mankind, and consider the modern era to be a degradation compared to the ancient Atlantean civilization. Considering themselves the heirs of the lost Atlantis, theosophists admit that it perished as a result of a great catastrophe, but at the same time they slyly keep silent about the fact that the death of that civilization occurred because of its God-fighting and Satanic nature, i.e. E. was the punishment of God that befell the antediluvian people for their depravity and for the same occultism, more precisely, demonism, which is the ancient "religion of the Atlanteans." (Interestingly, Blavatsky herself, in her letters about her hoaxes, writes that she is surprised by the gullibility of "these sweet people": "their stupidity gives me unprecedented pleasure.")
In the "post—flood" historical period, the Satanic essence of this religion is hidden, masked, hence its common name - occultism, from the Latin occultus — secret, hidden. Hence such occult "special terms" as "secret knowledge", "secret doctrine", "hidden wisdom", "initiates" and so on. This also applies to Eastern esoteric (again, secret) doctrines, whose adherents consider Blavatsky to be "the greatest initiate in the world," and they say about her "Secret Doctrine" that many "secrets of the ancients" can be found in this book.

According to a number of researchers, the pyramids were intended to communicate with the "cosmos." On the head of the Egyptian Sphinx, researchers have discovered a so-called "third eye" facing upward, "into space." Four narrow, long chambers (shafts) were discovered in the pyramid of Cheops, which, according to some researchers, were channels (tunnels) through which souls went "to the stars." This conclusion is based, in particular, on the study of the ancient hieroglyphic texts inscribed on the inner walls of the pyramids, discovered in the 1870s and now known as the "Pyramid Texts".
These texts are generally magical in nature, contain spells, and describe some kind of soul-wandering. Among them there is, for example, such a text (given in the book "Secrets of the Pyramids" by R. Buval and E. Gilbert): "O Pharaoh, the sky accepts you as Orion, the light of dawn carries you with Orion... you regularly ascend with Orion to the eastern edge of the sky, you regularly descend with Orion to the western edge of the sky... you are accompanied by Sothis...". Buwell and Gilbert claim that the three pyramids of Giza represent the position of the three stars of Orion's Belt.
"They [the stars of the Orion belt] are tilted to the southwest relative to the axis of the Milky Way, while the pyramids are also tilted to the southwest relative to the axis of the Nile. If you look closely on a clear night, you can see that the smallest of the three stars, the one above, which the Arabs call Mintaka, is slightly shifted to the east of the straight line on which the other two stars lie. This picture is reproduced on Earth, where the pyramid of Menkaura is also offset to the east from the straight line formed by the pyramid of Khafre (an analogue of the middle star, Al-Nilam) and the Great Pyramid, which depicts the star Al-Nitak. It is quite obvious that the three monuments are placed according to a single plan, which accurately models the location of these three stars... Thus, in Giza, the Belt of Orion was depicted on Earth" (Beauvall).
As we know, "morning dawn" is the name of the devil, who was one of the highest angels before his departure from God. According to some, the giant hunter Orion in Greek mythology (according to one of the most famous myths, Orion was turned into a constellation by Zeus) is Nimrod, the organizer of the construction of the post-flood pyramid — the Tower of Babel; in any case, Orion is a "giant", which reminds us of giants, Atlanteans, etc. If souls went to the stars through the channels created by the pyramids, then it begs the assumption: are these not astral channels (channels for entering the "astral")? After all, the word "astral" in Greek means stellar.
It is noteworthy that in occult teachings there are three main planes of existence: physical, astral and mental-spiritual. In Agni Yoga, for example, these are: the dense world, the subtle world and the fiery world. By the way, according to the teachings of Agni Yoga, the spiritual basis of the universe, through which movement along the path of perfection takes place, is a certain "Hierarchy of Light, Brotherhood, High Spirits united for the sake of work for the Common Good." It seems that these lofty names conceal none other than fallen angels who have taught people unholy and pernicious "perfection" and movement along the path of "progress" — in evil.…
"THE GIANTS WILL BE CALLED EVIL SPIRITS ON EARTH..."
According to the Book of Enoch, the Lord Himself told him the following:
"Listen up! Do not be afraid, Enoch, you are a righteous man and a scribe of righteousness; come here and listen to My word! And go, tell the guardians of heaven who sent you to plead for them: you must plead for people, not people for you. Why have you forsaken the most high, holy, eternal heaven, and lain with wives, and defiled yourselves with the daughters of men, and taken wives for yourselves, and behaved like the sons of the earth, and begat gigantic sons?
Being spiritual, holy, and in the enjoyment of eternal life, you have become defiled with wives, given birth to children through the blood of the flesh, coveted the blood of men, and produced flesh and blood, as those who are mortal and corruptible produce. That's why I gave them wives, so that they could impregnate them and through them give birth to children, as is usually the case on earth. But you were spiritual before, called to enjoy eternal, immortal life for all the generations of the world. Therefore, I have not created wives for you, for the spiritual have their abode in heaven.
And now the giants who were born of body and flesh will be called evil spirits on earth, and their dwelling place will be on earth. Evil beings come out of their bodies; since they were created from above and their origin and first origin were from the holy guardians [angels], they will be evil spirits on earth, and will be called evil spirits. And the spirits of heaven have their home in heaven, and the spirits of the earth, born on earth, have their home on earth. And the spirits of giants who rush to the clouds [isn't it through astral channels?], will perish, and will be overthrown [maybe that's why the word "nephilim" means "fallen"?], and they will commit violence, and cause destruction on earth, and cause disasters; they will not take food, and they will not thirst, and they will be invisible.
And those beings will not rebel against the sons of men and against the wives, because they are descended from them. In the days of the slaughter and destruction and death of the giants, as soon as the souls leave their bodies, their bodies must perish without judgment; so they will perish until the day when the great judgment will be carried out on the great world — on the guards and wicked people.
And now tell the guards who sent you to intercede for them, and who used to live in heaven, now tell them: "You have been in heaven, and although the hidden things have not yet been revealed to you, yet you have learned an insignificant secret and told it in your hardness of heart to your wives, and through this secret of the wife and husbands do a lot of harm to the earth." Tell them, 'There is no peace for you.'"
Thus, if you believe the Book of Enoch, it turns out that on earth now, as in the entire post—flood history of mankind, invisible evil spirits (demons) live and commit evil deeds ("commit violence, produce destruction, cause disasters...") - and they (or a certain part of them), it turns out, are the spirits of the antediluvian the giants. Then maybe it is them that the apostle Paul calls the spirits of wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12)? And after all, many pagan gods (who, according to the Holy Scriptures, are demons (Ps. 95, 5.)), for example, the titans from Greek mythology, are certain gigantic people deified by pagans. And it turns out that the essence of the struggle of the Old Testament prophets and the New Testament Church of Christ against paganism (idolatry) is the confrontation between the worship of the true God and the worship of fallen angels and their descendants, the nephilim (false gods), as gods.

From all this follows the following assumption, which is relevant for the pre-finite time we are experiencing. Maybe it is these evil spirits (nephilim) who want to come to our world today, posing as aliens, as representatives of a higher race from a parallel world, or as Atlantean survivors?
In general, if we accept the version of the Book of Enoch, then many things seem to fall into place, many riddles and mysteries find a completely logical explanation.
For example, it becomes clear the general basis of those numerous ancient myths and legends that speak of gods descending from heaven, of the indignation of some gods against others and the war of the gods, of higher and lower gods (For example, in Sumerian, Akkadian, Assyrian and Babylonian mythologies, lower gods (earthly and underground) and higher, heavenly (who gave birth to the lower ones)), about the children of the gods and the marriages of gods and men, as a result of which certain demigods (giants, cyclopes ("Some scientists are inclined to believe that the Cyclops mentioned by Homer in the adventures of Odysseus, could have existed in reality. There was a report in the foreign press that a giant skull with one eye socket was discovered on one of the islands of the Pacific Ocean in 1989" (Encyclopedia of Miracles, Riddles and Mysteries edited by M. Golubev)) and others), about giants fighting against gods and people, etc. ("The fall of men and angels or titans, the struggle of giants against the gods are found in all mythologies... Plutarch ... sees in the gods of Egypt not deified people, but demons" (Louis Menard, "Experience on the origin of hermetic books")).
It also makes clearer the general basis of numerous modern versions and reports of contacts with "extraterrestrial civilizations", "parallel worlds", etc.
Taking into account the words of the Book of Enoch that giants will be called evil spirits on earth and will be invisible, materials like the following are read in a new and, so to speak, more clearly.
"NASA Advisor: Are aliens evil spirits or demons"
Leading scientists in the field of space technology have proved that extraterrestrials have never visited Earth, the Christian Megaportal reports invictory.org with reference to the press center of the Emanuel Association.
"It is clearly written in the Bible that there are evil spirits or demons that can appear to people, and most likely, these eyewitnesses encountered them, not aliens," said Ellsworth E. Gerrels, NASA technical and scientific adviser, during a lecture at the Immanuel Association, Kiev.".
At the beginning of this article, the question was posed: "Are the Nephilim aliens?" Now, considering all of the above, perhaps the answer to this question should be as follows: are nephilim not aliens, but (so-called) aliens are (actually) nephilim (evil spirits)?
In any case, the main thing is clear.: "aliens" are evil spirits, demons..."
