When people began to multiply on the face of the ground, and daughters were born to them, the sons of God saw that they were fair; and they took wives for themselves of all that they chose. Then the Lord said, “My spirit shall not abide in mortals forever, for they are flesh; their days shall be one hundred twenty years.” The Nephilim were on the earth in those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went in to the daughters of humans, who bore children to them. These were the heroes that were of old, warriors of renown. —?Genesis 6:1–4, New Revised Standard Version
depends on your definition of "sons of God"

This is what a quick google search got me.

The Nephilim were the offspring of the "sons of God" and the "daughters of men" before the Deluge, according to Genesis 6:1–4 narrative of the Bible.

Offspring of fallen angels.
Genesis 6 refers to “Sons of God” taking wives. The offspring of these unions were the Nephilim.
The Bible only references “Sons of God” when talking about direct creations of the Father (Adam and angels) or Jesus.
Edit: cgrand and OweO beat me to it.

They would be comparable to Hercules and Achilles from mythology.

Without googling...what were any of their names? And I have never heard one iota of a priest or preacher say the word in a service.

I don't believe individual names are ever mentioned in the Bible.

To put a somewhat finer point on it, this was the reason behind the worldwide flood. The Bible says Noah was perfect in his Generations. That does not mean he was a perfect man, but he was pure genetically from the corruption that had entered the human race via the Fallen Angels. In order to preserve the Christ line, the mutant genetics needed to be wiped out.
Those fallen angels that caused that corruption have been kept in chains reserved to future judgment

No names of the Nephilim or the specific son’s of God are referenced in the Bible.
It’s never been mentioned to me in a sermon either, but it’s certainly in the Bible. The late Chuck Misler does a very good explanation of the book of Genisis where he talks more in detail about them and how they were directed related to the subsequent flood. Basically says what NYCaLa is saying above.

I've listened to a lot of this stuff on youtube. LA Marzulli seems to be the expert on this. The nephilim are the offspring of angels and humans. They are giants like Goliath. God didn't like them so He sent the flood to wipe them out.

Fields of the Nephilim was a cool goth band.

So humans and angels can have relations?

They are a myth.
