Circle of Refaim/or the: Nephilim/Who were the Giants of Old?

Circle of Refaim or the: Nephilm (Giants in English) "Who were the Giants of Old?"


Built by the Giant King Og of Bashan/ 3200 BC;
37,000 Tons of Stones/159 Meters diameter;
Outer Ring, seven feet high
Location: Israel (Golan Heights)
Gilgal= circle:
The Circle of Refaim is one of the last great scarcely known wonders of the ancient world atop Israel's Golan Heights (see: Josh, Chapter 4: JKV).

In the middle of the rings is a mound of stones set up as a landmark, monument gravestone. Perhaps used as an astronomical observatory and stellar calendar; it resembles some of the ruins found on Malta (I have been to Malta, and its makeup is very close to the Refaim Circle). Built on a flat plateau, in an remote area, it can only be seen clearly from the air; perhaps for the returning giants; hundreds of tombs are on this site, thus it could have been used also as a burial site.

"...sons of God" (b'nai Elohim), taking wives from among the daughters of Adam. "In those days giants [Nephilm] were in the earth...”
The word, which is translated, "giants", in the King James Version Bible is in Hebrew, "Nephilm", which means, "Those who fell (or ... the fallen ones). Jude, the brother of Jesus describes them as "angels, having left their first estate in heaven who came to earth on a mission, to guard the people of earth (otherwise known as ‘the Watchers).
The "fallen ones (or the Watchers)" sought to merge with the bloodline of Adam, because of the promise that was given to send a redeemer through Adam's kinsman. The Hebrew says that the Sons of God (the angelic Watchers) saw that the women on earth were able-bodied (or good fit) "extension", for they sought to extend themselves into this realm from the spirit realm (or from spirit to flesh), as well as to extend themselves into the "children of the promise" (thus, they would thereafter be part of the birthright) of Adam. Satan of course, tried to screw this up, by trying to prevent the eventual birth, in the future of the Messiah (perhaps envy, for he could not get in on the show). This mating process of human beings with angelic beings resulted in hybrid creatures, evil spirits with human bodies; Giants such as Og, and thereafter, Gilgamish. And is perhaps the main reason God had the Great Flood come.

The KJV Old Testament Hebrew Lexicon: old tribe of giants (also: implying spirits)=rapha: shades or spirits.
