The Nephilim, as described in Ellen White's writings, are identified with the "long-lived race that existed before the Flood"—that is, the antediluvian giants. These were men of "lofty stature and giant intellect," who, under the influence of fallen angels, used their abilities for self-exaltation and evil. Their remarkable works led the world to idolize them, but their cruelty and wicked inventions defiled the earth and defaced the image of God, which ultimately led to their destruction in the Flood. Key points from the sources: - The Nephilim were a race of giants before the Flood, known for their great stature, strength, and intellect. - They yielded to the control of fallen angels and devoted their skills to self-exaltation and evil. - Their works led to widespread idolatry, cruelty, and corruption, prompting God to blot them from the earth (see GC 664.1, 4SP 478.1, GC88 663.2). - After the resurrection of the wicked, these same antediluvian giants are described as resuming their former thoughts and ambitions, still actuated by the same desire to conquer (GC 664.1). - The degeneration of humanity after the Flood is noted, with each generation becoming weaker and more subject to disease (EW 184.2). - The giants, or Nephilim, are also referenced in the context of the "sons of Anak" seen by the Israelites when scouting Canaan (PP 388.4, 4T 149.2). In summary, the Nephilim in Ellen White's writings are the pre-Flood giants—powerful, intelligent, and corrupt—whose evil led to their destruction in the Flood. References: - Ellen G.

No, según los escritos de Elena G. de White, los Nephilim (o gigantes antediluvianos) no son descritos como el resultado de una unión física entre ángeles y humanos. Más bien, ella explica que estos hombres de gran estatura e intelecto "cedieron al control de los ángeles caídos" y usaron sus habilidades para el mal y la autoexaltación. Es decir, su corrupción y poder provinieron de la influencia y el control espiritual de los ángeles caídos, no de una mezcla genética o física entre ángeles y humanos. Citas relevantes: - “...hombres de elevada estatura e intelecto gigante, que, cediendo al control de los ángeles caídos, dedicaron toda su habilidad y conocimiento a la exaltación de sí mismos...” (GC 664.1, 4SP 478.1) - No hay ninguna referencia en los escritos de Elena G. de White que indique que los ángeles y los humanos se mezclaron físicamente para producir a los Nephilim. En resumen: Para Elena G. de White, los Nephilim son humanos que se corrompieron bajo la influencia de los ángeles caídos, no híbridos de ángeles y humanos.
