Episode 230: The Rephaim and Subterranean Cities - Could Giants Have Escaped the Flood Through Ancient Underground Networks?

Show Notes

Overview:

In this episode, we explore an intriguing interpretation of Genesis and the fate of the giants during the biblical flood. John notes that Genesis 7 states all living things "on" the ground or earth perished, suggesting four possibilities for the Rephaim's survival: they passed through the ark, there was a second incursion of fallen angels, they escaped to outer space, or they sought refuge underground.

Recent discoveries at Giza hinting at subterranean angelic cities open up a fascinating theory - could fallen angels have constructed these underground refuges and used them to shelter some Nephilim when the floodwaters rose? Alternatively, if they heeded Noah's warnings, they may have prepared in advance.

The discussion takes an imaginative turn, proposing that just as the Egyptians repurposed the pyramids, perhaps the offspring of a second angelic incursion during the conquest of Canaan retreated to these ancient subterranean cities as hideouts. Join us as we delve into this thought-provoking blend of scripture, archaeology, and speculation about the mysterious Rephaim and their potential underground sanctuaries.
