They are briefly mentioned in Genesis 6, where they are described as being on the earth before the Flood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Because Scripture provides very little information about their daily lives, countless theories have developed over the centuries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some traditions portray them as giants. Others view them as mighty warriors or legendary heroes. As a result, people have often speculated about what their diets may have looked like.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here are seven fascinating theories about what the Nephilim may have eaten.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.
