from Megalithic Marvels · host Derek Olson

The Dead Sea Scrolls were first discovered by shepherds searching the Qumran caves in 1946. These scrolls date from the 3rd century BC and include the oldest surviving manuscripts of the Bible. Also found amongst them were fragments of ancient apocryphal books not included in the accepted Biblical canon of scripture... and what one of these scrolls talks about may shock you, as it reads like an ancient apocalyptic sci-fi thriller. Known as 'The Book of Giants,' this enigmatic text expounds upon what Genesis 6:4 and the Book of Enoch reference - that there was once an ancient hybrid race of giants known as the 'Nephilim.' However, the Book of Giants goes even further to explain how the 'Watchers' were also creating chimeric "Monsters."JOIN ME ON A 2026 TOUR
