GIANTS IN THE BIBLE<br />
PROF. M. M. NINAN<br />
There was ano<strong>the</strong>r Na'amah, and why did <strong>the</strong>y call her Na'amah? She played melodies on <strong>the</strong> drum to<br />
accompany idolatry".<br />
Naamah <strong>the</strong> Mo<strong>the</strong>r of All Mank<strong>in</strong>d<br />
The family of Ca<strong>in</strong> is described at length <strong>in</strong> order to reveal <strong>the</strong> identity of <strong>the</strong> second mo<strong>the</strong>r of mank<strong>in</strong>d<br />
- <strong>the</strong> first be<strong>in</strong>g Eve. Her name <strong>in</strong>dicates that she deserved to survive. Inspite of <strong>the</strong> fact <strong>the</strong> mention of<br />
her family background would not have been complimentary to her, we are given that <strong>in</strong> detail. From<br />
her be<strong>in</strong>g saved it becomes clear that not all <strong>the</strong> descendants of Ca<strong>in</strong> were without hope of redemption<br />
and <strong>the</strong>refore Ca<strong>in</strong> received Div<strong>in</strong>e Revelation. Rabbi Naftali Tzvi Yehuda Berl<strong>in</strong> comments <strong>in</strong> his<br />
commentary Ha'amek Davar on Genesis 4: 32 "from that which was good <strong>in</strong> Ca<strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> world was<br />
established, through this woman, and he had <strong>the</strong> privilege of jo<strong>in</strong><strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> <strong>the</strong> survival of <strong>the</strong> world with <strong>the</strong><br />
seed of Seth, who were <strong>the</strong> purpose of creation".<br />
If this is true, it will evidently makes it clear that <strong>the</strong> association of Sons of God as sons of Seth and<br />
Daughters of Man as daughters of Ca<strong>in</strong> is totally <strong>in</strong>valid. Ca<strong>in</strong>'s progeny is like Eve, <strong>the</strong> Mo<strong>the</strong>r of All<br />
Liv<strong>in</strong>g.<br />
Aga<strong>in</strong> if this is true, <strong>the</strong> flood did not make any difference as far as <strong>the</strong> Nephilim genes were concerned.<br />
The only th<strong>in</strong>g happened was <strong>the</strong> reduction of <strong>the</strong> life time of humans. Both Ca<strong>in</strong> and Seth are with<br />
us <strong>in</strong> our genes. This will corroborate <strong>the</strong> statement "Nephilims were on <strong>the</strong> earth at that time and<br />
also afterwords"<br />
The rationale for choos<strong>in</strong>g Naamah as <strong>the</strong> name for Noah’s wife is that some <strong>in</strong>terpreters believe <strong>the</strong><br />
mention of Naamah <strong>in</strong> Genesis 4:22 must have some special significance and that <strong>the</strong>re was a town<br />
<strong>in</strong> Canaan conquered by Joshua named Naamah .<br />

Jewish Encyclopedia gives <strong>the</strong> follow<strong>in</strong>g explanation and excuse and expla<strong>in</strong>s why Noah was<br />
considered righteous:<br />
"Although Noah is styled "a just man and perfect <strong>in</strong> his generations" (Gen. vi. 9), <strong>the</strong> degree of his<br />
righteousness is, never<strong>the</strong>less, much discussed by <strong>the</strong> Rabbis. Some of <strong>the</strong> latter th<strong>in</strong>k that Noah was<br />
