The Book of Giants

There's nothing inside.

He's like, whatever, you know? next to the dresser there's a desk and he just kind of glances at the desk and he notices this brown accordion style folder that's like jam-packed with something and there's a handwritten label on it it says the book of giants he opens it because it catches his attention and he sees there's like a bunch of hand-drawn maps with no borders no real landmarks there's journal pages handwritten in his uncle's handwriting there's pictures of excavation sites all over the world and of bones but the bones are not of human proportion sketches of skeletons that also don't seem to match normal human proportions.

He's like, what is this? And he starts reading.

And then he realizes that this isn't just a collection of like photographs and maps.

Like his uncle had apparently been working on this manuscript arguing that giants were not mythical creatures, that they had been real at one point.

and that the evidence of their existence had been buried.

Apparently found passages from ancient books like the Book of Giants, which was fragmented and found alongside the Dead Sea Scrolls from what Kyle could make of it.

Notes in the margins of some of these texts by his uncle made to argue that these passages weren't symbolic or metaphorical in nature, but meant to be taken literally.

And there's a handwritten label on it.

It says the Book of Giants.

He opens it because it catches his attention.

And he sees there's like a bunch of hand-drawn maps with no borders, no real landmarks.

It's a manuscript or the start of one.

Like his uncle had apparently been working on this manuscript arguing that giants were not mythical creatures, that they had been real at one point and that the evidence of their existence had been buried.

apparently found passages from ancient books like the book of giants which was fragmented and found alongside the dead sea scrolls from what kyle could make of it notes in the margins of some of these texts by his uncle made to argue that these passages weren't symbolic or metaphorical in nature but meant to be taken literally cross-referenced them with excavation sites that he had personally dug up, with photographs he had personally took, and with evidence of salt mummies found in the Himalayas for bodies that were supposedly preserved naturally, but with proportions that didn't seem to match human anatomy.

I was just flipping through and he's seeing all these notes about petrified giants, about petrified wood, about petrified giant trees, and megaflora.

That makes sense if they represented a hybrid population rather than ordinary humans enlarged by storytelling.

And the Book of Giants makes the whole thing even stranger because those beings are not anonymous monsters.

They have names, family relationships, dreams, and knowledge of approaching destruction.

Ohia and Hahia are among the most famous names, while Mahaway acts as a messenger seeking interpretation from Enoch.

We don't have them.

Until the recovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls, we didn't know about, you know, that some of these texts relating to Enoch, the Book of Giants, right, that were around somewhere.

People had these texts there.

And we wouldn't have known about them.

The rediscovery of the Book of Enoch also shed light on the broader literary and theological landscape of the Second Temple period, a time when Jewish apocalyptic literature flourished.

Alongside the Book of Enoch, other related texts were found, including the Book of Jubilees and the Book of Giants, which shared similar themes and expanded upon the narrative of fallen angels, the Nephilim, and the apocalyptic visions that permeated this era.

The Dead Sea Scrolls as a whole offered a glimpse into the richness and diversity of ancient Jewish thought, much of which had been suppressed or forgotten over the centuries.

This rediscovery of the Book of Enoch ignited debates among scholars, theologians, and religious authorities about the book's place in the biblical tradition.

What if I told you that there are books so ancient, so revealing, that history has silenced them? Manuscripts that tell of secret alliances, celestial rebellions, and giants who terrorized humanity.

for centuries these texts were considered too dangerous too powerful books like the book of jubilees the enigmatic book of yashar and the impressive book of giants but why were they hidden what could these forgotten pages reveal about the beginnings of the world about the war between the sons of men and the beings who came from the heavens today we will pierce the veil of forbidden history we will rediscover the secrets that were buried and understand why, to this day, many prefer that they remain forgotten.

Three banned books of the Bible you need to know about.

The Pentateuch, composed of the books of Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, is traditionally attributed to Moses as its author.

I invite you to reflect on the richness of this text and its contribution to the Jewish tradition.

The Book of Jubilees is not just a historical work, it also inspires theological and cultural interpretations that continue to resonate.

The Mystery of the Book of Giants The Book of Giants is an apocryphal work that expands on the accounts found in the Book of Genesis of the Hebrew and Aramaic Bible, much like the Book of Enoch.

Similar to the latter, the Book of Giants seeks to provide an explanation for the unchecked growth of evil on earth before the flood.

He's like, "Whatever," you know? Next to the dresser, there's a desk, and he just kind of glances at the desk, and he notices this brown accordion-style folder that's, like, jam-packed with something.

And there's a handwritten label on it, and it says The Book of Giants.

He opens it because it catches his attention, and he sees there's, like, a bunch of hand-drawn maps with no borders, no real landmarks.

There's journal pages handwritten in his uncle's handwriting.

It was essentially an ancient spinoff to the Book of Enoch.

A text scholars refer to as the Book of Giants.

The extended cinematic universe of ancient Mesopotamia.

Precisely.

The Book of Giants tells the events leading up to the flood, but strictly from the perspective of the Nephilim themselves.

In this text, the giants start experiencing terrifying apocalyptic nightmares.

They dream of a massive stone tablet submerged in water, its writing washed away.

Just like Elijah had a different role than Moses, apostles today would have a different role obviously than those apostles that we have in the early church.

But I think it's intriguing too that this 66 books references other books, right? Like it references Enoch, right? Or Jasher or the Book of Giants or whatever, and so we should take note of that.

In which way?

Uh-

That means you should too.

Like, I'm not, I'm not saying that.

I'm saying I appreciate people who dig into Jasher, who dig into the Book of Giants, who dig into Enoch, who dig into all these other books and have determined which ones are relevant, which ones aren't.

Like, I think that's great, but that's just not my lane, and I think that's important for people is to, like, stay in their lane.
