There are two views regarding the identity of the nephilim; either the offspring of angels and human, or the offspring of the sons of (unrighteous) Cain with the daughters of Seth (righteous). Evidence cited in favor of the fallen angels interpretation includes the fact that the phrase the sons of God (Hebrew, בְּנֵי הָֽאֱלֹהִים; literally sons of the gods) is used twice outside of Genesis chapter 6, in the Book of Job (1:6 and 2:1) where the phrase explicitly references angels. The Septuagints translation of Genesis 6:2 renders this phrase as the angels of God.
