good question,
The Book of Beginnings (Genesis)also is the beginning of the languages of man, NOT GOD.
IF we look at the progression of the word of God through the bible Sons of God as a normative speak of men more than angels, in the New Testament I am a son of God as there are many of us who are because of Christ.
Also, the fall of man was relatively new from the context of Genesis. we see many spiritual things pertaining to man and God that are not fully explained example Enoch walked with God and was no more, for God took him? In Hebrew let's see what God did from the word
took (lāqaḥ )?
- (Qal)
- to take, take in the hand
- to take and carry along
- to take from, take out of, take, carry away, take away
- to take to or for a person, procure, get, take possession of, select, choose, take in marriage, receive, accept
- to take up or upon, put upon
- to fetch
- to take, lead, conduct
- to take, capture, seize
- to take, carry off
- to take (vengeance)
there are many ways this word TOOK can go YET we must use from the context the word that best fits
# 10 can't be God took Vengeance out on Enoch why? Because the word
Walked with GOD.
which could mean :
to go, walk, come
- (Qal)
- to go, walk, come, depart, proceed, move, go away
- to die, live, manner of life (fig.)
Adam walked with God, Enoch, walked with God Noah walked with God Abraham walked with God
they were all Sons of God as they were know as
bēn 'ĕlōhîm =
- sons (as characterisation, i.e. sons of injustice [for un- righteous men] or sons of God [for angels]
Genesis chapter 6 actually is speaking about men, not angels because the chapter is about men, not angels.
the daughters of men speak to those who are not known as the elect. Sons of God speak of those who walk with GOD NOT IN SIN.
BUT were now doing so.
