You Tube Theology

In this excerpt, Thomas Schreiner discusses one of the most debated passages in Genesis — the identity of the “sons of God” in Genesis 6.

He presents the view that they are fallen angels, noting its strong presence in Second Temple Jewish literature and its possible connections to Jude 6, 1 Peter 3, and 2 Peter 2. At the same time, he acknowledges alternative interpretations, including the view held by Wayne Grudem.

While not a central doctrine, the discussion highlights the seriousness of sin in the early chapters of Genesis and the growing corruption that leads to the flood.
