How did the Fallen Angels produce Giants?

The Genesis 6 experiment
Genesis 6:4
“The Nephilim were on the earth in
those days—and also afterward—when the sons of God went to the daughters of men
and had children by them. They were the heroes of old, men of renown.”
These are angels, not the sons of
Seth. How do you produce giants if they
were simply the offspring of Seth? The
“Sons of God” are angels throughout the other texts. (See Job 1:6 and 2:1)
How did the Fallen
Angels produce Giants?
The women bore children to these Fallen Angels.
(Genesis 6:4)
In all my researching of this account, it has never been explained how
the angels took women and the women bore children to them. Did the angels have coitus with the
women? How is it that angels had the
capability to have coitus with women? Do
angels have sexual organs and produce sperm in heaven? Are there male and female angels in Heaven
such that they bear angel children?
Jesus seems to counter-indicate this in Matthew 22:29-30
“But Jesus answered them, ‘You are wrong, because
you know neither the Scriptures nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry
nor are given in marriage, but are like angels in heaven.’”
Some indicate they took human form.

Rob indicates angels have their own bodies. How would that work? In addition, if the Fallen Angels took the
form of human bodies, how was the sperm with which they impregnated these women
not fully human? We’re back to the
question of, “How did that produce giants?”
Did these human bodies produce
“angel sperm”?
If they retained their ability to produce “angel sperm” in these bodies,
why would an angel produce sperm to begin with?
And why would “angel sperm” be compatible at all with human
reproduction?
Scripture clearly indicates that Nephilim offspring were the result of
the Fallen Angels being desirous of the human women (Genesis 6:2), so there
must have been some pleasure involved in this mating.
God changed the nature of humans so angels could no longer breed with
them.
Daniel 2:43
“And whereas thou sawest iron mixed with miry
clay, they shall mingle themselves with the seed of men: but they shall not
cleave one to another, even as iron is not mixed with clay.”
“God changed the nature of man so Nephilim could no longer breed with
mankind via sex.” —Rob Skiba
But Jubilees expands this concept.
Jubilees 5:12 …
“And their fathers [the Watchers] were
witnesses of their [the 1st generation Nephilim] destruction, and after this
they were bound in the depths of the earth for ever,
until the day of the great condemnation when judgment is executed on all those
who have corrupted their ways and their works before the Lord. And He destroyed
all from their places and there was not left one of them whom He judged not
according to all their wickedness. And He made for all of His works a new and righteous nature,
so that they should not sin in their whole nature for ever,
but should be all righteous each in his kind always.”
I think Rob is thinking too narrowly here. Before the “incursion,” there was no such
thing as coitus, in man nor animal.
Rather than God changing the nature of man, Jubilees 5:12 says God, “made for all of His works a new and righteous nature.”
Not just for mankind, but for all of His works. I submit that before the judgment of the
Watchers (the Fallen Angels), Creatures did not reproduce the way they do today. Perhaps the initiation of a life did not even
involve sperm; life did not initiate from sperm and egg, or perhaps the
insemination was initiated some other way.
It could be that two beings, just touching in a particular way, would
cause the mixing of seed and the instantiation of new life. This is just an example of a mechanism
different from what we have today.
This removes the requirement that Angels would have sperm and explain why
Angels can no longer mate with humans after the punishment.
