The Gospel of the Kingdom: Noah and the Watchers
Genesis 6:1-2, Now it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, that the sons of God saw the daughters of men, that they were beautiful; and they took wives for themselves of all whom they chose.
“And it came to pass,” is actually one word in Hebrew. It is hayah and it begins with a vav and not a hei.
In Genesis 1:1 we learned the vav connected the heaven and the earth. The vav can function as the word “and,” combining two things into one.
Moses begins Genesis 6:1 with hayah in English “And it came to pass,” but he put a vav at the front of hayah. By doing this Moses was connecting the ending of Genesis 5 with the beginning of Genesis 6. Genesis 5:32-6:1-2, And Noah was five hundred years old: and Noah begat Shem, Ham, and Japheth AND, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born to them, That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all whom they chose.
When these verses are connected we find that Moses was providing a timeline confirmed by Yeshua in Luke 17:26, “And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man.”
I want us to read Luke 17 starting with verses 25-30.
Luke 17:25-30 NKJV 25 "But first He must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation. 26 "And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 "They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 "Likewise as it was also in the days of Lot: They ate, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they built; 29 "but on the day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 "Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed.
Things to note:
1. Noah was rejected by his generation. Yeshua was rejected by His generation.
2. As it was in the days of Noah. In the days of Noah the sons of God, the Watchers, began mating with the daughters of men to create a hybrid race called the Nephilim, translated giants.
3. So will it be also in the days of the Son of Man. The Watchers or celestials will begin to go into the daughters of men as in the days of Noah. These fallen angels will also give man the technology to alter humanity’s DNA to create a race of beings God did not create. This is currently happening in our day.
4. Noah was the last Melchizedek when he entered the ark before the great flood.
5. Even so will it be in the day when the Son of Man is revealed. In the day that Yeshua begins to be revealed as the Melchizedek, the final and eternal Melchizedek, is the day when we know we are living in the days of Noah.
6. Today is that day! Yeshua is being revealed as the Son of Man, the final everlasting High Priest according to the order of Melchizedek! Hallelujah!
Genesis 6:3-9 NKJV 3 And the LORD said, "My Spirit shall not strive with man forever, for he is indeed flesh; yet his days shall be one hundred and twenty years." 4 There were giants on the earth in those days, and also afterward, when the sons of God came in to the daughters of men and they bore children to them. Those were the mighty men who were of old, men of renown. 5 Then the LORD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 And the LORD was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. 7 So the LORD said, "I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth, both man and beast, creeping thing and birds of the air, for I am sorry that I have made them." 8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. 9 This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God.
The judgment Yahweh decreed was not against the righteous, it was decreed towards the evil. We know this because of Yahweh’s plan of redemption was implemented. Six days – six steps, each day representing an era of a 1,000 years. Planned from the beginning of time, 6,000 years, then the eternal Melchizedek is revealed.
א – Aleph - Day One - light; the kingdom is revealed
ב – Bet - Day Two - Holy Spirit begins His work
ג – Gimel - Day Three - the soil receives the King’s seed
ד – Dalet -Day Four - the doorway into the kingdom opened, and the bride announced
ח – Hei -Day Five - the hosts of heaven are assembled and made ready for war
ו – Vav - Day Six – the Melchizedek is revealed
2 Peter 3:8, But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.
And at the close of the nineteenth jubilee, in the seventh week in the sixth year [930 A.M.] thereof, Adam died, and all his sons buried him in the land of his creation, and he was the first to be buried in the earth. 30 And he lacked seventy years of one thousand years; for one thousand years are as one day in the testimony of the heavens and therefore was it written concerning the tree of knowledge: 'On the day that you eat thereof you shall die.' For this reason, he did not complete the years of this day; for he died during it. Jubilees 4:29-30
Adam was not the first person to be buried but the first Melchizedek to be buried in the earth. Peter said the same thing about Noah being saved in the ark.
2 Peter 2:4-5, For if God did not spare the angels who sinned, but cast them down to hell and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved for judgment; 5 and did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly;
Eight – ogdoos – eighth. The verse should read like this: But saved Noah, the eighth, a preacher of righteousness.
The eighth what? The eighth Melchizedek!

Cainan 4 Cainan

Adam was the first Melchizedek to be buried in the earth. Noah was the eighth Melchizedek saved from the flood. Adam was not the only Melchizedek to serve before the flood. Seth, Adam’s son served as Firstborn. After Seth, his son Enosh.
Genesis 4:26, And as for Seth, to him also a son was born; and he named him Enosh. Then men began to call on the name of the LORD.
Call – qara – accosting a person met; to encounter in a hostile manner: befall; fall out.
Then men began to goad (call upon the name of) Yahweh. They provoked Him with the misuse of His name.
“In that time, the sons of men began to multiply and to afflict their souls and hearts by transgressing and rebelling against God. And it was in the days of Enosh that the sons of men continued to rebel and transgress against God, to increase the anger of the Lord against the sons of men. And the sons of men went, and they served other gods, and they forgot the Lord who had created them in the earth, and in those days, the sons of men made images of brass and iron, wood, and stone, and they bowed down and served them. And every man made his god, and they bowed down to them, and the sons of men forsook the Lord all the days of Enosh and his children, and the anger of the Lord was kindled on account of their works and abominations which they did in the earth.” Jasher pp. 8-9
Enosh was born 235 A.M. (Anno Mundi, which means “in the year of the world”). The gods who began appearing in Enosh’s day were not the Watchers of Genesis 6:4. Watchers made an unholy pact on Mount Hermon. The gods of Enosh’s day came from the unseen realm and were blasphemous because they encouraged men to image them.
They taught that created beings can become gods. They also taught that Yahweh weakened Himself in the process of creation because He put too much of Himself in Adam. They taught that Yahweh had ceased to exist and that they were the Creator’s replacement. They also claimed to be the benefactors of mankind. And because they were believed, men forgot Yahweh.
Cainan was the next global king, Melchizedek. “And Cainan grew up, and he was forty years old, and he became wise and had knowledge and skill in all wisdom, and he reigned over all the sons of men, and he led the sons of men to wisdom and knowledge; for Cainan was a very wise man and had understanding in all wisdom, … And Cainan reigned over the whole earth, and he turned some of the sons of men to the service of God.” Jasher 2:11-14
The return to righteousness did not last long. Mankind began transgressing again during the time of Mahalalel (the son of Cainan).
“Men caused their wives to drink a draught that would render them barren, so that they might retain their figures and whereby their beautiful appearance might not fade.” Jasher 2:20
This is not all they began to do. They began to venerate the dead by making idols of ancestors who had passed. It was believed that worshipping ancestors made them happy. Happy ancestors made life effortless in the here and now. They also believed happy ancestors made the progression into immortality easier. Essentially, the gods began to take on the persona of the dead to deceive the living and to gain control of “erets.”
And in the second week of the tenth jubilee [449-55 A.M.] Mahalalel took unto him to wife DinaH, the daughter of Barakiel the daughter of his father's brother, and she bare him a son in the third week in the sixth year, [461 A.M.] and he called his name Jared, for in his days the malakim of YAHWEH descended on the earth, those who are named the Watchers, that they should instruct the children of men, and that they should do judgment and uprightness on the earth. Jubilees 4:15
The Watchers were to instruct mankind in doing judgments and uprightness. In other words, the Watchers were to instruct mankind how to serve Yahweh and how to walk in Yahweh’s ways. That’s not what happened, as we already know. The Watchers began mating with the daughters of men and in doing so they began creating a hybrid race known as the Nephilim. Some Bible translations call them giants.
“And it came to pass when the children of men had multiplied that in those days, born unto them were 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.” Enoch 6:1-2…
We’ll end this lesson at this point and continue when we return next week April 27, 2022.
Until next time, receive this blessing!
The Lord bless you and keep you;
The Lord make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The Lord lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace…His shalom!
Best,
