ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Nephilim

Okay kiddo, listen up! So, you know how sometimes we read about giants or really big people in old stories? Well, the Nephilim is kind of like that. They were creatures that some people believed lived a long time ago.

The word "Nephilim" comes from a Hebrew word that means "fallen ones" or "mighty ones". Some people think they were the offspring of angels and humans, while others think they were just really big and strong people. It's kind of like a legend or a myth, not like something we can see or touch.

There are stories in some old books that talk about the Nephilim, like the Bible and the Book of Enoch. But not everyone believes in them or thinks they actually existed.

So, to sum up, the Nephilim were creatures that some people think were giant or powerful beings that lived a long time ago. But we can't be sure if they were real or not.
