Passage, Paragraph, and Prayer

Episode 17
Apart from the creation account, Genesis 6:1–4 are probably the most scrutinized verses in the book of Genesis. Even many Christians see these verses as describing spirit beings having intimate relations with human women and producing children that are sort of half-spirit, half-human. In this devotion, we begin considering why that interpretation cannot be correct.
