Question: According to the King James Version, who were the giants that inhabited Canaan?
The Nephilim were of large stature, 13' or more tall, and the tomb size is shown in Deut. 3:11 (approx. 14' or 4·5m), and testified in Deut. 3:13, i.e. "the land of the giants" (translated as “Raphaim”). The certain fact that the Old Testament Nephilim had spread from Babylon is shown by the tombs of the Marduk kings in Babylon, which were of the same size as Deut. 3:11. It is an interesting fact that large skeletal remains have been discovered on almost every Continent, including recently Australia.
To treat the subject seriously, three main questions need to be addressed.
1) Who were they?
2) How and why were they produced?
3) Are they still on Earth?
