οι δε γιγαντες ησαν επι της γης εν ταις ημεραις εκειναις και μετ' εκεινο ως αν εισεπορευοντο οι υιοι του θεου προς τας θυγατερας των ανθρωπων και εγεννωσαν εαυτοις εκεινοι ησαν οι γιγαντες οι απ' αιωνος οι ανθρωποι οι ονομαστοι
Genesis 6:4
Arcana Coelestia #564
564. Verse 1 And so it was that man began to multiply himself over the face 1 of the ground, and daughters were born to them.
'Man' here means the human race at that period of time. 'The face 1 of the ground' means the whole of that area where the Church was. 'Daughters' here means the things that constituted the will of that man, and so means evil desires.
Bilješke:
1. literally, the faces
