The Nephilim

[Thirdwoe]

...

Hello,

Could anyone here please translate Gen 6 and the other places from the Aramaic where it talks about the 'Nephilim' in the Hebrew?

I am wondering what, if any difference the term has in the Aramaic. For instance does it mean 'Giants', or 'Fallen Ones' or something else.

The Targums go so far as to name these beings, Schamchazia & Uzziel in Gen 6 ...Im not sure where those names come from other than maybe the Book of Enoch...

Anyway, I am trying to find out if the Peshitta Old Testament can shed ony light on this.

Thanks,
Chuck
