Summary
Most scholars believe that the origins of evil stem from the idea that God, in His “not wanting to create obedient robots,” gave both angelic and human beings FREE WILL. However, the danger is that if that free will goes against God, then devastating consequences arise from “rebellion which is the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry.” (1 Samuel 15:23)
One example of this is what scholars refer to as 'The Fall of the Watchers', depicted in Genesis 6. In it, some 200 angels touch down on Mount Hermon to take the seed of human women for themselves through a forbidden pact they make with each other. These Watchers (or sons of God – “the bnei HaElohim”) are supposed to be watching over the Earth (its weather patterns, affairs of men, etc.) but are influenced by the kingdom of darkness, as well as their own lust and pride. Jude 1:6 says “they kept not their first estate, but left their own habitation.”
The devastating consequence of these unholy unions is that their offspring become, as Genesis 6:4 says “Giants” (which, in the original Hebrew, means “Nephilim” and “Men of Renown”). Not only do the Watchers cause this abominable thing, they also teach forbidden knowledge to humans such as witchcraft, divination, astronomy, mind-altering drugs (Pharmacia), writing before God’s timing to do so, smithing and metal working, weapon-making, gene-tampering and animal cross-breeding, each with its own devastating consequences.
While the Nephilim are not called out by name in the Book of Enoch, it is indeed they who are mentioned throughout the provocative ancient manuscript. The translators of the Book of Enoch, as well as The Holy Bible, are using words common to their audience, not giving their readers the credit of doing their own research on rarely-used or rarely-heard words like “Nephilim.”
