Michael Heiser 'Reversing Hermon'

“Sons of God as Godly Descendants of Seth

In the fourth century AD, Augustine argued that the sons of God are the godly male descendants of Seth. Here, the "daughters of men" represent the ungodly females of Cain's line. The sin is the intermarriage of godly and ungodly humans, and the offspring are humans.

There are several weaknesses to this view. First, nowhere in the Old Testament are Sethites identified as the sons of God. Second, this view forces two divergent meanings on the Hebrew word

'adam in Genesis 6:1-2: the term would have to mean "mankind" in Genesis 6:1, but a specific group of humans—the Cainites—in Genesis 6:2. Additionally, this view implies that all the women of Cain's line were ungodly, whereas all the men of Seth's line were godly. While this might be averted by noting that no law existed prohibiting intermarriage of any kind prior to the great flood, this would in turn undermine the entire premise of the view. Also, since only Noah and his family were considered godly in the days of the flood, we can presume that the vast majority of Seth's descendants were far from godly; Seth had more than one descendant (Gen 5:7). Lastly, the daughters born in the previous chapter of Genesis were born to Seth's line, not Cain's-the precise opposite of what this explanation requires.” - Faithlife Study Bible
