Publisher's summary

Among the first seven scrolls discovered in the caves of Qumran at the Dead Sea is a scroll given the name "The Book of Giants". It is thought to have been based on the Book of Enoch, a pseudepigraphical Jewish work from the third century BCE. The Book of Giants, like the Book of Enoch, concerns itself with the Nephilim, which are the offspring of fallen angels, who are called the Watchers. Two main versions of the text exist. The Dead Sea version is written in Aramaic. Another version has been found written in middle Persian, adapted from the Aramaic to fit into the Manichean religion. Both versions will be examined. Following theories speculating that the Book of Giants was once part of the Book of Enoch, we will attempt to place the two texts back together to render the complete story of the Watchers and the Nephilim. We will discover the history and contributions of these ancient scrolls and look carefully at their content and meaning. Throughout the combined texts of the Book of Giants and the Book of Enoch we will examine all the biblical and apocryphal references and parallels within the text. The result is an in-depth and panoramic view of the Angels, the Watchers, and the Nephilim, and how one of the giants of the Nephilim race may have survived the flood intended to cleanse the Earth of their horror.

poor audio production makes this hard 2 recommend.

The text repeats "codecs corrupted," every few seconds in an echo, makes it unbearable torture. The amount of material missing makes you wonder why even bother creating an audio version of this book. This echo effect is way overused throughout the reading and really detracted from the content inside. The rest of the content is somewhat interesting though.

An Exceptional Resource Book for all Who Want Biblical History and Future Knowledge

I had been looking for years for something more on the giants I read about in the OT it is great to find such a book with a bonus of Enoch. We got a glimpse of each in the OT Biblewhich leaves you needing to know more. This book along with th book of "Enoch" answers all remaining questions.

The narrator

This book has a lot of information, but the narrator's voice is dry. Also at the start of each chapter, it echoes the title. bi won't finish this book.

Listening quality

There is an echo in this book that makes it difficult to listen to. Makes it overdramatic and hard to focus.

Ggiants and End Times History

This book is based out of the bible and from Acient text. This book covers a large aera of history from the bible and from old acient wrightings, From before Jesus and Noah. It covers a lot about the Giants. A very good listen.

Everything was new to me.

My mind is blown. I was able to visualize the story of every account. There are 10 levels of heaven. It explains the giants and mermaids, that many people that was mythology. I really enjoyed this book.

Disappointed with the Narration

Overall, the text and story line is good. It's not that, it's the boring & lagging presentation by the narrator. As a result, this makes listening to the book very difficult and thus defeats the very purpose of an audio book- listening with enjoyment. I give this a one star for performance.
