The next Bible study topic and full article was added earlier to the main site of Ultimate Riddles, and is entitled The Origin of the Giants of Genesis 6. Understanding the paternity of these kingsized giants is discussed in detail with reference to the original Hebrew language of the Old Testament for clearer understanding. Here's an excerpt of the article relating to the size of these giants:

Rapha was the most prominent of the Nephilim, yet there were many other named giants including Anak, the root ancestor of the Anakims, and the last of the giants, Og the King of Bashan. Just how huge was Og? Here's a clue from the book of Deuteronomy:

For only Og king of Bashan remained of the remnant of giants; behold, his bedstead was a bedstead of iron; is it not in Rabbath of the children of Ammon? nine cubits was the length thereof, and four cubits the breadth of it, after the cubit of a man. Deuteronomy 3:11 (KJV)

Og required a bed 9 x 4 cubits made of iron as described in the above verse, and for approximate modern measurements convert 1 cubit to 18 inches, or just under 1/2 meter (0.4572 meters). His bed was 13.5 feet long by 6 feet wide (4.1 meters by 1.83 meters). This giant descendant of a supernatural fallen angel was likely 12 feet tall minimum if you allow 18 inches for his Mommy to tuck his feet in at night.

This article is not just about the size of the Biblical giants. Read the full article about the origin and purpose of Bible giants and their parents.
