Megalithic Marvels - House of David, Goliath & the Hill of the Skull

Episode Date: April 19, 2025

Being that I recently finished watching Amazon Prime's new hit series "House of David," I begin this episode sharing my impressions of it. The series follows the biblical story of the ultimate under-dog David, who faces off against the most infamous giant in history, Goliath. Watching this series led me down a deep research rabbit hole concerning the origins of Goliath. Who was he really? Was he more than just a tall human as the mainstream narrative has lead us to believe? And who were "The Watchers" and the enigmatic "Nephilim" that the Bible, the Book of Enoch and other ancient texts and historians speak of? In preparing for his battle with Goliath, why exactly did David select five smooth stones from the stream? After his victory over Goliath, why did David cut off the giant's head and transport it to a far away city? What is the seed of the serpent and why does an ancient prophecy in Genesis seem to connect Christ’s crucifixion with a mysterious location known as the “Hill of the Skull” in Jerusalem? You definitely do not want to miss this one…ISRAEL/ PETRA TOUR

Stargate Voyager. There is so much that we're going to get into in this episode. I'm going to kind of give a brief recap or review of Amazon Prime's hit series, House of David, which follows the story of David and Goliath in the Bible. And so that's going to take us into a deep dive on who were these Nephling giants and the most famous of all, Goliath. What were his origins and what happened? to his skull and where might it still be we're going to dive into all of this and so much more

recently finished watching Amazon Prime's hit show House of David and thanks to my friend Brent who kept twisting my arm that I had to watch this show because he watched it and really liked it. And I got to say I was pretty impressed. It's rumored that this series had a pretty modest production budget, yet it rose to become one of Amazon's top three TV shows, I believe, and has already been renewed for a second season. And so I'm going to give a little bit of a spoiler alert here. If you haven't seen it and you plan on seeing it, you might want to skip the next 30 seconds of what I'm about to say, because I kind of have to share what I'm going to share to set up what we're going to get into in this episode.

But this series, House of David, it's set approximately 1,000 years before Christ, and it follows the biblical account of how Saul, the first king of Israel, basically loses favor with God, and consequently ends up losing his own mind, his own sanity, as he falls victim to his pride. Now, while this is going on, far away from Saul's palace, the legendary prophet known as Samuel, who lives like out in the wilderness up on a mountain, at least as far as the show portrays, he goes on to an unlikely outcast teenager, a shepherd named David, to replace. the mighty Saul as king. So as one leader is falling, another is rising. And as the series continues on, you see all these different groups, kings, heroes, villains begin a grappling for the crown and

for power in a final face-off battle. And it really gets good about halfway through the series when the dark powers that are lurking outside of Saul's kingdom are summoned to help defeat Israel. And I'm talking about the legendary warriors that were long deemed myth. But as the show portrays were real, I'm talking about the giant Nephilim. So if you've read the Bible story or seen this series, you know that war becomes inevitable and the series culminates on the ancient battleground of Eliah where young David fights the most infamous giant of the Bible, Goliath. And this battle takes place. in the final episode of the series so it was obviously my favorite episode again despite the modest

rumored production a budget of this series i thought the show did a pretty good job of making this series like quality especially the last episode with the final battle they had some great cg i seen that made it look lord of the rings esk i thought there were some great storylines that they took liberties with again the final battle scene between David and Goliath, I thought was really great. And the guy they found to play Goliath was legit. I mean, he was like Andre the Giant on steroids, had this deep voice. I think in real life he's almost like seven feet tall, maybe six foot nine I heard or read somewhere. Now, while I wish that they would have focused even more on the origins of the watchers, the Nephilim and

kind of the backstory of Goliath and his brothers, I've still got to give him progress. that this show, which is now mainstream, had the guts and the brains to introduce the watchers and the Nephilim narrative of Genesis 6'4. So watching this series for a couple of weeks got me really thinking about the Nephilim and about their most famous warrior Goliath. So that took me down some research rabbit trails. So in this episode, I want to do a bit of a deep dive on again the most infamous giant of the Bible of probably all-time Goliath. But because we've got so many new listeners and watchers, no pun intended, I want to first set up what I'm going to share in this episode about Goliath

kind of with a broader foundation regarding the Nephilim, because I never want to assume that everybody's on the same page with these topics. So as I've stated on previous episodes and other podcasts, The Bible and ancient manuscripts such as the Book of Enoch, the Dead Sea Scrolls, and historians spoke of a race of giants that once walked the earth. One of these historians, the most famous is probably Homer, the Greek poet and historian. He stated this around 400 BC, quote, on earth there once were giants, end quote. Blavius Josephus was a first century Roman and Jewish scholar, and one of his most important works was called Antiquities of the Jews, which was written in 94 AD. Now Josephus, in many of his writings, references ancient giants in several places, and here is probably one of his most famous mentions of giants.

There were till then left the race of giants who had bodies so large and countenances, so entirely different from other men that they were surprising to the sight and terrible to the hearing. The bones of these men are still shown to this very day, unlike to any credible relations of other men, end quote. There's so much we could try to pull from this one quote from Josephus. He obviously says these giants were large. He said their countenances were entirely different from other men, that they were surprising to the site. to me that means shocking and that they were terrible to the hearing. This almost leads me to believe that they could communicate at super high frequencies

that were maybe terrible for human ears. And I think this might have something to do with why I believe they had elongated skulls and how they could communicate again through frequencies and even telepathy. But then Josephus goes on to say the bones of these men are still shown to this very day. So Josephus is living in the first century. He's basically saying, from what I read there, that these bones are on display in the museums of his day. They were so crazy to behold. Now, according to the Bible, as we will read from in a bit, these giants were called the Nephilim,

and they were the offspring basically of fallen angels who descended to earth, took on flesh, and bred with human women. Now, author and Bible scholar Derek Gilbert, he believes that Lucifer mentioned in the Bible is not the same as Satan, but that Lucifer was actually Saturn, who may have been a high priest in Eden. He believes that Saturn was actually the leader of the rebellious sons of God, aka the Watchers, this class of fallen angels. And he believes Saturn was given many names. over about a 6,000-year period. The Greeks knew him as Kronos, the Hebrews knew him as Molek, and on.

New research has even traced the fallen angels cult back to Mount Arat where Noah's Ark rested. So regarding these watchers, let's read from the book of Enoch now. Here's chapter 6 verses 1 and 2, quote, And it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied, that in those days were born under them beautiful and comely daughters, and the angels, the children of the heaven, saw and lusted after them, and said to one another, come, let us choose us wives from among the children of men, and beget us children, end quote.

Now let's jump to Enoch chapter 7 verses 1 through 6. It says, quote, and all the others together with them took under themselves wives, and each chose for himself one, and they began to go in unto them and to defile themselves with them. And they taught them charms and enchantments in the cutting of roots and made them acquainted with plants, and they became pregnant,

and they bear great giants, who consumed all the acquisitions of men, and when men could no longer sustain them, the giants turned against them, and even devoured, mankind. And they began to sin against the birds and beasts and reptiles and fish and to devour one another's flesh and drink the blood. Then the earth laid acquisition against the lawless ones, end quote. Now when we read from these two chapters in the book of Enoch, it's clearly

talking about angels from heaven coming down to earth and breeding with human women who gave birth to giants. So there's a lot we can pull from these. two chapters in the book of Enoch. And if you read the book of first Enoch, there's so much more we learn, like there was originally 200 of these watcher class angels. And the book of Enoch actually tells us where they descended. It was Mount Hermann in the Israel area there, and that they basically made a pact to do this together, to descend to earth, to take on form, and to marry, take wives, and have children. And they're referred to as fallen angels because essentially they fell or they rebelled against God. If you get into these other scriptures in the Bible that talks

about how basically God created angels and he gave them free will, if they were never originally intended to marry and breed like humans. But the Bible talks about how when Satan rebelled against God, who was one of the original watcher class angels, he convinced a third of the angels of heaven to come with him. And so that's likely who these 200 watcher angels were. So according to these two chapters in Enoch that we read, it sounds like the offspring of the watchers who were the Nephilim giants. They began to defile even animals.

And there's another book called The Book of Giants, an ancient text that was found amongst the Dead Sea Scrolls. And it seems to confirm what the book of Enoch hints at when it says this. Quote, 200 donkeys, 200 asses, 200 rams, 200 goats, 200 beasts of the field were selected for miscegenation. They defiled, they beget giants and monsters, and behold, all earth was corrupt, end quote. The most famous scripture in the Bible regarding the watchers and the Nefferns,

would be Genesis chapter 6 verse 4 which states this quote there were giants on the earth in those days and also afterward when the sons of God came into the daughters of men and they bore children to them those were the mighty men who were of old men of renown end quote so this word giant in genesis 6 4 derives from the Hebrew word Nephiel, meaning bully, tyrant, giant, and giants. And Nephiel turns into Nephalim when you add the word im, which turns it into the giant ones. The goal of the watchers appears to have been like threefold when you boil it all down. They wanted to be able to marry and procreate like humans, even though God strictly forbid them to do this. They also wanted to create this race of hybrids, who would not only rule over and lead the children of men astray into occult worship and child sacrifice,

but the ultimate endgame would be to breed out God's original human creation with this hybrid race. And I'll touch on more about that in a little bit when we get to the Genesis 315 prophecy. Now, the other important thing that Genesis 64 points out, it says, that they were here on the earth before the flood and also after. So it's no coincidence that the Nephilim giants are introduced in scripture right before the flood narrative. And this is why God, I believe, is sending the flood. It's to wipe out this illegal hybrid race and preserve the last remaining genetic humans for repopulation. Now, no one is family were basically the last pure-blooded humans left

on earth. And this is why the Bible says Noah was perfect in his generations. When you look that up in the Hebrew, it's referring to genetics. The Hebrew word perfect basically is the same Hebrew word that God used to describe an unblemished lamb for sacrifice. It's genetics. So to me, this story of the flood is a rescue mission. God is taking the last pure-blooded humans, putting them on a boat to save them as he wipes out and cleanses the earth of this illegal hybrid race. Now, as I said earlier, Genesis 6-4 states that the giants were here on the earth before the flood and also afterward. I kind of lean towards that they came the second time, probably like they did the first time. They descended, took on flesh, and did their thing.

And as you read the Old Testament of the Bible, here you find giant tribes all over Canaan, which was also called the promised land, which was the land that God told Israel to go in and inhabit. So when God is telling Israel to wipe out these tribes of Canaan, these I believe are hybrid giant tribes. These are not fully human. So that's kind of the real backstory of what's going on here. When you get into the deep Jewish history, you find out that the early church fathers even identified the heroes and the demigods of Greece and Rome as actually the Raphaim of Canaan, who were the Nephilim.

These early church fathers and historians believe that the giant mythology, again, that came from Greece, that it was basically a corruption of the earlier story of the fallen angels and the giants that were actually upon the earth. So before the flood, the Bible mentions the word Nephilim more, and then after the flood it mentions the word Refayim, which comes from Nephilim. So this word Raphaim was first recorded in Genesis 14's war against the giants. Refayim is the male plural form of the Hebrew word rafa, which means giant or a tribe of giants.

So again, giants appear to elis. have been squatting in the covenant land of Canaan, the promised land, previous to Abraham settling there. And Abraham was the patriarch who had Isaac, Isaac had Jacob, who God relator named Israel, and from Jacob, who became Israel, that's where the nation of Israel came from. So Genesis 14 and then Deuteronomy chapter 2 actually mentioned several of these humanoid hybrid Nephilim or Refayim tribes. And when you look into the Hebrew of these scriptures, they basically talk about the zoosim, which means roving creatures,

the emim, which means terrors, the horim, which means cave dwellers, the Zamzumin, which means plotters. Deuteronomy 220 and 21 states this, quote, that was also regarded as a land of giants. Giants formerly dwelt there, but the Ammonites call them Zamzumim, a people as great and numerous and tall as the anachim. Again, the Zamzumian in Deuteronomy 220 are known as plotters,

but it's interesting. The Arabic translation says they talk gibberish. And the Hebrew lexicon describes them as a nation of giants dwelling within the borders of the Ammonites before Moses. Tribes making noise. This reminds me of that early historian Josephus' quote about how the giants were terrible to the hearing. And this says they were a tribe making noise or gibberish.

Again, it's like they were communicating at harsh, high frequencies that probably bled the eardrums of humans. So it seems that after the flood, when the second incursion of giants arrived, as time passed, humanity basically becomes exhausted and enraged by these Nephilim giants because they're not only loud, obnoxious, consuming, and devouring everything, crops, animals, even humans, as Enoch chapter 7 told us, I believe. So humanity recognized that they were not only dangerous, but that if not kept in check, they would basically take over the entire planet through their killing and more so they're breeding.

And this is why we see all these patriarchs in the Bible, basically starting with Moses, Joshua, David, and so forth, hunting down these giants, as we're going to get into in a bit. So it appears that these giants fled the promised land of Canaan for their lives, and they sailed and traveled all over the world seeking refuge, Sardinia, Italy, Greece, Peru, and so forth, and even to North America. And really all over the world, as every corner of the earth has legends about ancient giants

and talks about ancient giants, even up until the early 1900s, as I've documented previously, big-time publications like the New York Times and the Scientific American were publishing all kinds of articles up to the early 1900s, about 7, 8, 9, 10-foot giants being discovered in all 50 states. So as these giants fled Canaan, they were looking for locations of refuge. Simultaneously, they may have desired to spread their occult practices to new parts of the world

and to corrupt the native peoples. Just as the watchers descended on Mount Hermon and eventually interbred with the human women, maybe it's possible that watchers descended at some point in other areas of the world, maybe even simultaneously and did the same fang. The point is, though, wherever they settled, these Nephalim created cruel cult religions that really ended in blood and death and sacrifice. And there seems to be a clear connection between the Nephilim giants, of old and some of the megalithic cyclopean architecture we see today, almost as if it was created

with some ancient, forbidden, original knowledge that was passed down from the watcher fathers to their hybrid Nephilim children. This was likely early on pre-flood. But as time and generations passed on, as the millennia passed, the knowledge of the Nephilim, you know, faded. Now there's many, many more scriptures in the Bible that speak of the strange genetic anomalies regarding these giants. Again, here's just a few to set us up for talking about Goliath. Numbers chapter 13, verse 33, states this, quote, there we saw the giants. Again, that's the word nephil, which means nephalim. There we saw the giants. The descendants of Anak came from the giants. And we were like grasshoppers and our own site, and so we were in their sight.

Now this scripture here in Numbers 13, the context is God was telling Israel to get ready to go take dominion of the promised land of Canaan. And so Israel sends out these spies to go snoop over the mountains and to see what is going on in their future home. And these spies of Israel not only see giant cities, wall, cities, but they see these giant Nephilim tribes. And so this is the context of when these spies bring back a negative report. They are freaked out of their minds because they just saw nine and 10 foot plus tall giants. And it drives me insane when I hear pastors or people talking about the

story of Israel sending out the spies to scope out the promised land. And they bring back a bad report, which confuses Israel and so they're too scared to go in and they wander for 40 years. What I'm trying to say is these people never mention that the spies saw 10 foot plus tall hybrid Nephilim giants that looked more like the Urukai from the Lord of the Rings. So they were freaked out of their mind. That is the context of what's going on. They were not just big walled cities with, you know, six foot five guys walking around. There was so much more going on.

Now let's read Deuteronomy chapter 3 verse 11. It says, quote, for only Ogg, king of Bashan remained of the remnant of the giants. Indeed, his bedstead was an iron bedstead. Nine cubits is its length and four cubits its width, according to the standard cubit. Now, when you do the math conversions here, it says, Ogg's bed was basically nine cubits long. That measures 13 and a half feet long. Now, that doesn't mean that Ogg was exactly 13.5 feet long because he needed to probably

fit on his bed, but it means he was probably pretty tall, probably 10 plus feet tall. So these scriptures speak of the enormous size of these hybrid giants. And consider this, if fallen angels were able to pass on their immortal spirit to their offspring, then what other superhuman traits were they able to equip their new race of people with? That's why I wonder if they didn't have the abilities to communicate at crazy frequencies, telepathy, even possibly levitate stones and megaliths, possessing ancient knowledge that allowed them to create ancient technology and tools. All right, now that we've laid a pretty firm foundation of who these watcher angel fathers were, the fallen angels, who bred with human

earth women, their progeny were these Nephilim hybrids. Half human, half fallen angel. Now let's talk about the most famous of these giants in the Bible known as Goliath, the king of Gath, who led the Philistine Army. Now Bible scholar and author of the Genesis 6 conspiracy, Gary Wayne, he states this, that the Philistine Confederacy was a military superpower of warrior giants and hybrid humans before and after the covenant land conquest of Israel. And they were a networked nation of city-state fortresses designed for perpetual war. The Philistines' represented the greatest militaristic threat to Israel, preventing Israel at that time from achieving an age of peace, where they could build their own dream manifested in what later would

become the first temple. And it was no coincidence that the Nephalim-led Philistines were such a formidable military force or that they harbored such a bloodthirsty oath against the Israelites. And so when you really go deep into these Nephilim, such as Goliath, he wasn't just a warrior that was fighting with the Philistines. He was more like their warrior king. He was basically this cannibalistic, 10-foot-plus-tall giant that I believe resembled more of a Urachai from the Lord of the Rings, as I said earlier, than even a human. He had super speed, super reflexes. I believe he probably had an elongated skull, super strength, again, 10 foot plus tall, again also likely possessing some strange telepathic frequency abilities. I believe these Nephilim hybrid kings like Goliath,

again, were cannibalistic in that the Philistines would literally bring them human sacrifice, that they would probably devour alive. In the Old Testament for the Israelites, It's God strictly outlawed human sacrifice and child sacrifice of any kind. So as the House of David, Amazon show portrays, in the book of 1st Samuel chapter 16 of the Bible, basically God has rejected Saul as king. He was Israel's first king. He becomes prideful and arrogant and he basically stops listening to God. And so the crazy prophet Samuel, who is like God's mouthpiece on earth, goes out and anoints this nobody shepherd boy named David.

Now, the Bible in 1st Samuel, I believe it's chapter 16, tells us how David, despite being a humble shepherd, was actually a skilled harpist. He was an incredible musician, and he basically was famous for this in the region. And news of his incredible harp skills abilities reached Saul's court. And so David was summoned to come play for King Saul because he was going insane. And the Bible says that David's skillful playing would basically put him at ease and like bring him peace. And so according to the Bible God is strategically placing David literally in the house of Saul, the very guy he's going to replace as king. So it's an incredible storyline.

Okay, so now I'm going to read straight from 1st Samuel chapter 17, the epic battle between David, the House of David, and the Nephilim giant. And afterwards, I will theorize on what might have happened to his skull. This is crazy. You are not going to want to miss this. In 1 Samuel chapter 7 reads as follows, quote, Now the Philistines gathered their forces for war and assembled at Socah in Judah.

They pitched camp at Ephes in Damim between Socah and Aescah. Saul and the Israelites assembled and camped in the valley of Ila and drew up their battle line to meet the Philistines. The Philistines occupied one hill and the Israelites another with the valley between them. A champion named Goliath, who was from Gath, came out of the Philistine camp. His height was six cubits and a span. Let me stop there. When you do the measurements, this means at a minimum he stood about 10 feet tall or 9 foot 9. Others will say he was 11 or 12 feet, but we'll go conservative and say he was at least 9 foot 9 inches tall,

which would be one very big warrior. to fight. Let me continue with verse 5. Quote, he had a bronze helmet on his head and wore a coat of scale armor of bronze weighing 5,000 shekels. On his legs he wore bronze grieves and a bronze javelin was slung on his back. His spear shaft was like a weaver's rod and its iron point weighed 600 shekels. His shield bearer went ahead of him. So verse 7 here said his spear shaft weighed 600 Shekels, that equals about 15 pounds. So just the end of his spear, 15 pounds, again, gives you the scale of how big this entity was. Verse 8, quote, Goliath stood and shouted to the ranks of Israel. Why do you come out and line up for battle? Am I not a Philistine? Are you not servants of Saul?

Choose a man and have him come down to me. If he is able to fight and kill me, we will become your subjects. But if I overcome and kill him, you will become our subjects and serve us. Then the Philistine said, this day I defy the armies of Israel. Give me a man and let us fight each other. On hearing the Philistine's words, Saul and all the Israelites were dismayed and terrified. Now, David was the son of an Ephraithite named Jesse, who was from Bethlehem in Judah. Jesse had eight sons, and in Saul's time he was very. very old. Jesse's three oldest sons had followed Saul to war. The firstborn was Eliab, the second Abinidad, and the third Shama. David was the youngest. The three oldest followed Saul,

but David went back and forth from Saul to tend his father's sheep at Bethlehem. So again, David's just the youngest kind of outcast son who's going between hurting the sheep at his father's farm and into Saul's palace to play the heart. Verse 16, quote, for 40 days the Philistine came forward every morning and every evening and took his stand. Now, Jesse said to his son, David, take this Ifah of roasted grain and these 10 loaves of bread for your brothers and hurry to their camp. Take along these 10 cheeses to the commander of their unit. See how your brothers are and bring back some assurance from them. They are with Saul and all of the men of Israel in the valley of Elah, fighting against the Philist.

Early in the morning, David left the flock in the care of a shepherd, loaded up and set out as Jesse had directed. He reached the camp as the army was going out to its battle positions, shouting the war cry. Israel and the Philistines were drawing up their lines facing each other. David left his things with the keeper of supplies, ran to the battle lines, and asked his brothers how they were. As he was talking with them, Goliath the Philistine champion from Gath, stepped out from his lines and shouted his usual defiance, and David heard it. When the Israelites saw the man, they all fled from him in great fear. Now the Israelites had been saying,

Do you see how this man keeps coming out? He comes out to defy Israel. The king will give great wealth to the man who kills him. He will also give him his daughter in marriage and will exempt his family from taxes in Israel. Verse 26. Quote, David asked the man standing near him, what will be done for the man who kills this Philistine

and removes this disgrace from Israel? Who is this uncircised Philistine that he should defy the armies of the living God? They repeated to him what they had been saying and told him, this is what will be done for the man who kills him. When Eliab, David's oldest brother, heard him speaking with a man, he burned with anger at him and asked, Why have you come down here? And with whom did you leave those few sheep in the wilderness?

I know how conceited you are and how wicked your heart is. You came down only to watch the battle. Now what have I done? said David. Can't I even speak? He then turned away to someone else and brought up the same matter. The men answered him as before. What David said was overheard and reported to Saul, and Saul sent for him.

him. David said to Saul, let no one lose heart on account of this Philistine. Your servant will go and fight him. Saul replied, you are not able to go out against this Philistine and fight him. You are only a young man and he has been a warrior from his youth. But David said to Saul, your servant has been keeping his father's sheep. When a lion or a bear came and carried off a sheep from the flock, I went after it, struck it and rescued the sheep from its mouth. When it turned, turned on me, I seized it by the hair, struck it, and killed it. Your servant has killed both the lion and the bear. This uncircumcised Philistine will be like one of them, because he has defied the armies of the living God. The Lord who rescued me from the paw of the lion and the paw of the

bear will rescue me from the hand of the Philistine. Saul said to David, go and the Lord be with you. Then Saul dressed David in his own tunic. He put a coat of armor on him and a bronze helmet on his head. Verse 39, quote, David fastened on his sword over the tunic and tried walking around because he was not used to them. I cannot go in these, he said to Saul, because I am not used to them. So he took them off. Then he took his staff in his hand, chose five smooth stones from the stream,

put them in the pouch of his shepherd's bag, and with his sling in hand approached the Philistine. Now let me pause here a minute and say that David is likely taking these five smooth stones from the stream because when you really do the research into this, there were five main giants ruling this region. And so it's likely that David figured that if he takes out Goliath, the biggest and baddest of them all, the most infamous giant, that his brother Lami that we'll talk about in a minute and these three other giants could possibly come to hunt him down.

And so he's grabbing five stones for five different giants. So David's got his sling in hand. It says he approaches the giant. Verse 41, quote, Meanwhile, the Philistine with his shield bear in front of him, kept coming closer to David. He looked David over and saw he was little more than a bull. boy, glowing with health and handsome, and he despised him. He said to David, quote,

Am I a dog that you come at me with sticks? And the Philistine cursed David by his gods. Come here, he said, and I'll give your flesh to the birds and wild animals. David said to the Philistine, you come against me with sword and spear and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, the God of the armies of Israel whom you have defied. This day the Lord will deliver you into my hands and I'll strike you down and cut off your head. This very day I will give the carcasses of the Philistine army to the birds and wild animals and the whole world will know that there is a God in Israel. All those gathered here will know that it is not by sword or spear that the Lord saves, for the battle is the lords, and he will give all of you into our hands.

So it ends here in verse 48. Quote, as the Philistine moved closer to attack him, David ran quickly toward the battle line to meet him. Reaching into his bag and taking out a stone, he slung it and struck the Philistine on the forehead. The stone sank into his forehead, and he fell face down on the ground. So David triumphed over the Philistine with a sling and a stone. Without a sword in his hand, he struck down the Philistine and killed him.

David ran and stood over him. He took hold of the Philistine's sword and drew it from the sheath. After he killed him, he cut off his head with the sword. When the Philistines saw that their hero was dead, they turned and ran. Then the men of Israel and Judah surged forward with a shorth. shout and pursued the Philistines to the entrance of Gath and to the gates of Echron. Their dead were strewn along the Sharm Road to Gath and Echron. When the Israelites returned from chasing the Philistines, they plundered their camp.

David took the Philistine's head and brought it to Jerusalem. He put the Philistines' weapons in his own tent. So it's interesting that after Goliath falls, David pulls out this colossal sword and cuts off the head of Goliath. Now is this because Goliath wasn't fully dead? Maybe. And or is it because there's more going on? Again, back to the hybrid nature of these Nephilim. How much supernatural abilities did they have? if they could speak with crazy telepathic abilities and frequencies,

was David cutting off its head to basically sever the frequency? But even more interesting to me is how it says that after David kills Goliath cuts off his head, he takes the giant's head to Jerusalem. Now we're going to end going down this crazy rabbit hole of why David took the head to Jerusalem. But first, remember I said how there were like five famous giants in this region surrounding Israel, and that's why David took the five smooth stones. Well, I wanted to read for you from First Chronicles chapter 20, verse 5 and 6, because it mentions at least two of these giants. Verse 5 reads this, quote, in another battle with the Philistines,

Elhanan, son of Jhar, killed Lami, the brother of Goliath, the Gittite. who had a spear with a shaft like a weaver's rod, end quote. So again, these Philistines, I don't believe all of them were giants, but they were led by a contingent of these giants. Goliath and his brother Lami, who it says was a giant and had a massive spear. And then the next verse, verse 6 says this, quote, yet again there was Warwick Gath, where there was a man of great stature with 24 fingers and toes, six on each hand and six on each foot.

He also was born to the giant. And the word giant here is the Hebrew word rafa, again, meaning giants or raffaim. It's important to note that when you're reading these verses about the giants, what's more important is the Hebrew text, which will tell you what it's really saying. Nephilim, Giant, Rafa, Refayem, Nephilim. Often the modern translators, the translations that you might be reading in the Bible, whether it's the NIV or the NLT, they'll use a word that just kind of made sense to them, but doesn't necessarily specifically mean what it meant, if that makes sense.

For example, here it said there was a man of great stature. So the translators are just using man because it makes sense. to them, but it really means more than man, if that makes sense. Okay, so here we go. Let's close this out. 1st Samuel 1754 said, David, after he kills Goliath, he cuts the head off and takes it to Jerusalem. Did you know that it's a 16-mile walk from the Valley of Ila where the battle was to Jerusalem?

16 miles. 16 miles is pretty decent distance to travel just in your car, let alone on a donkey or walking. 16 miles is a very long distance. So it must have been very important for David to carry, to transport this massive Nephilim hybrid giant head to Jerusalem. Again, this isn't an average-sized human's head. This is a massive head that had to weigh a whole lot. So why is David bringing it with him? Why isn't he just leaving it on the battlefield?

What's the big deal? So now let's go all the way back to Genesis. Let's go to Genesis chapter 315, where there is a very interesting prophecy. And what I'm about to read is God speaking to the serpent in the Garden of Eden after the serpent deceived Adam and Eve and got them to eat from the forbidden fruit, which caused them to sin and lose their eternal state. And so they became sinful.

They became corrupted. No more would they live in an eternal, blissful state in the Garden of Eden. Now they would have to leave the garden and live and work and sweat to survive, and their bodies would begin to. to slowly wither away. So God is angry with the serpent over this deception. But he says this, Genesis 3, verse 15, quote, and I will cause hostility between you and the woman and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head and you will strike his heel. So many Bible scholars believe that when it says, I will cause hostility between you and the woman. It's

talking about you, the serpent, and your offspring, the seed of the serpent, the Nephalim, and the woman Eve and humanity. So between your offspring and her offspring, pure bloods versus the hybrids. And it says, he will strike your head and you will strike his heel. What does this mean? So let me set this up. Again, the seed of the serpent was basically the serpent of the garden, deceiving humanity, and then his minions taking on form the watchers and creating this race of giants, right, who were on the earth before the flood and after the flood by going into the daughters of men, breeding with them and creating these hybrids. So to David and Israel and God, Goliath, this Nephilim giant represented the seed of the sermons.

When we read in the New Testament about the crucifixion of Christ, it basically says that Christ was killed. He was crucified on a hill in Jerusalem called Galgatha, otherwise known as the Hill of the Skull of the skull. Now if you're watching this by way of Spotify or YouTube, you're going to see a photo of the hill of the skull, Galgatha. and you can see what looks like a literal, huge, giant skull that's been carved into the face of this rock outcropping. Now, what's more? According to author, Bible scholar Perry Stone and others, and I believe even many early church fathers, David, when he took the skull of Goliath from the battlefield of Elah to Jerusalem, He brought it and he buried it on the hill of the skull at Galgotha, the place of the skull.

And think about the name Galgotha. You've got Goliath of Gath, Gapha, Golgatha. Goliath of Gath, Gath, Gailgatha. It's like a play on words. Now, what's crazy is that archaeologists in Israel, have found the bones of crucifixion victims that reveal that when the Romans were driving the stakes through the victim's feet in order to fasten them to the crosses, that the stakes were driven from the outside of the foot, outside of the heel, down through the center of the heel,

into the cross, into the wood. So literally, the heels of their feet were being brought. bruised. Okay, this takes us back to the Genesis 315 prophecy. It says, I will cause hostility between you and the woman, and between your offspring and her offspring. He will strike your head. You will strike his heel. So many Bible historians believe this last part of the prophecy that says he will strike your head and you will strike his heel. Okay, so translating that as the serpent thought he had won this cosmic chess match by breeding out humanity with the Nephalim. But when that was being stopped by the flood and by Israel wiping the giants out, then the serpent thought he had won by Christ being crucified,

who, according to the Bible, God had sent to save humanity from the sinful state they inherited in Genesis. when Adam Eve ate from the tree. So the serpent struck his heel, but he will strike your head. So again, translating that as Christ on the cross being crucified, literally his heels would have been bruised as Genesis 315 states. So we have this epic imagery of the crucifixion with Christ, the son of God being crucified on a cross,

with his heel bruised on top of Galgotha, skull hill, where underneath the seed of the serpent was literally buried the gigantic skull of Goliath. So you have the blood of Christ dripping down, crushing the head, striking the head of the serpent, dealing the death blow. And as the other scripture says, basically putting all things under his feet. culminates with Christ's resurrection. Now there's many more ancient Bible scriptures that speak of the giant Nephilim. I want to read three more for you really quick, and then we will end this. First Chronicles chapter 12 verse 8 says, quote, And of the Gadites, they're separated themselves unto David into the hold to the wilderness,

men of might, men of war, fit for battle, that could handle shield and buckler whose faces were like the faces of lions and were as swift as the rose upon the mountains. So this scripture mentions these guys had faces like lions. Again, this takes us back to the book of Enoch and the book of giants, which talks about the watchers defying the animal kingdom. So more than just these hybrid giants were there hybrid chimera-like beasts, possibly. Another scripture that hints at this is 2 Samuel 2320. It says, quote, in Benaya, the son of Jehoiada, the son of a valiant man of Cobziel, who had done many acts, he slew two lion-like men of Moab.

So another scripture that seems to be hinting at chimeric-like warriors, hybrid, half-man, half-an-an-like men. In fact, I did an episode on the this a couple months ago about the lion-like men of Moab or of the ancients. So you can find that episode if you want to learn more about these possible lion hybrids. And then lastly, we've got First Chronicles 1122 through 35. It states, quote, Banayas son of Jojada, a valiant fighter from Cobziel, performed great exploits. He struck down Moab's two mightiest warriors. He also went into a pit on a snowy day and killed a lion. And he struck down an Egyptian who was five cubits tall. Although the Egyptian had a spear like a weaver's rod in his hand, Benaya went against him

with a club. He snatched the spear from the Egyptian's hand and killed him with his own spear. Such were the exploits of Benaya's son of Jehoiada. Now it says this Egyptian warrior was five cubits tall when we do the conversion that is about seven and a half feet tall well now you know almost everything there is to know about the house of david the nephalim galith skull and galgatha i really hope that you enjoyed this episode if you did please do me a favor and follow me subscribe on youtube spotify or apple podcast from wherever you listen or watch uh if you can give me a five star rating on Spotify, that would be huge. I think you can do that on Apple Podcasts as well. And last but not least, please consider joining me and many friends for our Israel and Petra Tour March of 2026.

This is going to be the adventure of a lifetime. We are going to explore the vast mysteries and histories of the Holy Land. We are going to experience the Bible come alive literally in 3D as we walk where the great heroes of the Bible walked like Abraham, Moses, Joshua, Elijah, and David himself, John the Baptist, Christ himself. We will be visiting many of the most important biblical locations such as the Sea of Galilee, Copernum, the Jordan River, Nazareth, the Dead Sea, the Temple Mount, the Western Wall, Jerusalem, Gassimini, Galgotha, the Tomb of the Patriarchs, Bethel, and much more. Yet this will not be your typical Holy Land tour as we will go off the beaten path to explore

the area where the legendary watchers are said to have descended literally on Mount Hermon. We will be right there. We will also go off-grid to visit the habitation of the watcher's nefarious giant offspring, v. Nephilim, as we discussed in this episode. We're going to go in search of their ancient archaeological ruins, such as Nimrod's fortress near Mount Hermon. We're going to go to the gates of hell near Caesarea Philippi, which was known by some as a literal portal to the underworld. We're going to go find what's known as Gilgal, Raphaim, or the Wheel of the Giants, which was this ancient archaeological structure that's a massive circle with the dolmen in the center. We're literally going to go find this and go

deep inside of it. And speaking of David versus Goliath, we are going to venture off trail to go find the very valley of Elah where David is slew the giant Nephilim Goliath. We're going to find this battlefield. And then we're literally going to follow the path that David took the 16 miles to Jerusalem, where he took the skull of Goliath. We're going to go to Skull Hill Galgotha. and see this giant skull-like hill and consider what might be buried inside it. Then we're going to go into the western wall underneath it in Jerusalem to behold the massive megalithic foundations of the first temple, where there are megalithic blocks down there that are some of the biggest in the world that I don't think a lot of people realize are in Jerusalem itself. And then for those who have chosen the Jordan extension, our journey will continue three more days and take us to one of the seven wonders of the world, the mysterious rock city of Petra. Here we will explore its mysterious chambers and consider the lost civilization and ancient technology used to engineer it. This will be an Israel and Petra tour for the ages.
