I bought this book because I wanted to do more research on the issue of the identity of the "sons of God" and the Nephilim in Genesis 6. Among evangelical biblical scholars there is disagreement regarding who these beings were. Some scholars say that the "sons of God" were Sethites who intermarried with Cainite women; some others say that they were warriors descended from Cain; and others say that they were angelic beings who fell from their glorious state in heaven.

Patrick Heron does an excellent job demonstrating that the "sons of God" were fallen angels who took on fleshly form and mated with human females. I was never fully convinced with the Sethite and Cainite view of the sons of God because of their weak exegetical and historical foundations (the Sethite view cannot explain why the "daughters of men" must refer to Cainite women, and the Cainite view was unheard of before the 2nd century AD). Heron provides intriguing evidence to point out that the sons of God were indeed angels: the pantheon of gods in Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Greek, and Roman mythology (one can include the mythologies of other Indo-European cultures like the Norse and Indics); the practice of genetic manipulation in antiquity (demonstrated by records of hybrid beasts in stone tablets and murals); and vile religious practices of these ancient people.

Though many Christians may find the angelic theory of the sons of God/Nephilim/ancient gods far-fetched, Heron still does an excellent job showing why there is a vital connection between the fallen angels and the "heroes of old" (ancient gods/goddesses). He reveals how the ancient pyramids of Egypt, Southeast Asia, and pre-Columbian Americas are intricately tied to these sons of God and the coming apocalypse. (Heron's theory is backed up by recent findings in the last century of huge skeletal frames found in various parts of the world. Some of these skeletal frames are as tall as 20 feet. These findings show that in ancient times there existed humanoid giants that roamed the earth and caused havoc among native civilizations.)

However, despite these positive and enlightening points, Heron's book takes a downward turn in the second half. The second half of the book is basically an advocacy of the dispensational pretribulational view of the end-times. Though I am strongly premillennial and futurist in my interpretation of Revelation, I just thought that Heron made major assumptions and leaps in trying to fit his whole theory into a pretrib/premill eschatological schema. Yes, I believe that there will be bizarre events in the near future signalling the beginning of the end (and I believe that these fallen angels will play a large part in the coming catastrophe), but that can all be found in the Book of Revelation. In short, the second part of the book read like another one of Hal Lindsey's end-time books with some interesting things thrown into the mix.

Overall, I would recommend this book ONLY for the information on the sons of God and Nephilim. Many Christians will find Heron's advocacy of the pretrib/premill position problematic. One can definitely find better books elsewhere if one wants a more scholarly work on eschatology.

Compelling. Foreboding. Extraordinary in implication. June 6, 2007
35 out of 39 found this review helpful

So compelling - and foreboding, are the conclusions reached by Patrick Heron in The Nephilim and The Pyramid of the Apocalypse, that the writing of a "review" is minimalist. The implications of Dr. Heron's research are beyond the realm of 'recommended' reading and should be mandatory. These conclusions reach the high ground of the convergence of archaeological, historical and theological conjecture.

Quite unexpectedly, The Nephilim and the Pyramid of the Apocalypse introduces a new level in the apologetics genre of Judeo Christian academics. The subject itself is mystical and universally appealing but the significance of the Pyramid's message is strikingly prescient and more relevant today than possibly any other time since its initial construction.

Dr. Heron's research is excellent; his documentation, thorough; and his presentation is well ordered, comprehensive and extraordinary in scope and consequence.

While conservative Biblical perspective is often dismissed as lacking academic depth and scientific scholarship, the technologies of 21st century physics and microbiology are revealing startling parallels which are carefully organized and skillfully introduced and developed by Dr. Heron.

Those who appreciate the elegance, precision and order of our universe recognize that no event is beyond coincidence and will find it providential that Dr. Heron has been given the insight, direction and ability to sift the sands deposited millennia ago and deliver their message today.

These findings are a somber warning to a faltering generation. They speak of unseen schemes and forces that may soon be revealed.

But these findings have also been given to one who can offer both the explanation and the solution for the darkness tucked within - and they have been wrapped with the warmth and comfort of a lilt which can only be delivered by the heart and passion of an Irishman.

The detractors? They are what they are and they always have been.
We make our choices - but Patrick Heron has made the message clear - and they have heard.

Extremely Weak Argument and Fatally Flawed Research January 30, 2007
16 out of 23 found this review helpful

I strongly disagree with the other reviewers who are posting positive comments about this book. My review is based upon the previous edition of Heron's book, which was published in 2005 by Xulon Press; however, I highly doubt that the flaws I am pointing out will have been corrected for this new edition. Therefore, I wish to warn others about the shoddy research that Heron presents for his argument. If someone has read the current edition of the book and finds that these mistakes have been corrected, then please let me know and I will adjust my review accordingly.

To begin, I would like to point out that some of Heron's supposed "facts" about the Great Pyramid of Giza are incorrect. This is further compounded because he uses these details at the beginning of his book to build up his grand theory that the pyramid (and all ancient pyramids for that matter) are diabolical deceptions created by Satan to mimic the Holy City of God. For instance, Heron uses outdated information from Clarence Larkin as his source that the Great Pyramid consisted over over 2.3 million blocks weighing an average of 2.5 tons apiece. However, more recent quarry evidence suggests that perhaps only 1.3 million blocks were used or even less (some estimate only 750,000) weighing an average of 1.6 tons.

Another grievous error is that Heron states matter-of-factly that the "Hebrew cubit" measures 25.025 inches (again, based upon Larkin's data, which was, unsurprisingly, based upon the flawed research of others). However, there's no such thing as the 25.025 inch Hebrew cubit. Any reputable source will tell you that that measurement of a cubit used by the Hebrews varied between approximately 17.49 inches and 20.67 inches. Additionally, since we are talking about an Egyptian pyramid, we should be dealing with Egyptian cubits (the royal cubit was approx. 20.61 inches) -- not Hebrew cubits.

Heron then goes on to use this so-called 25.025 inch "Hebrew cubit" as the base unit of measure to reveal that the length of each side of the pyramid's base equals 365.2422 cubits. He argues that this demonstrates that the Great Pyramid had the number of days in the solar calendar built into its design. This might sound impressive but it's flat wrong if you do any real calculations based upon measurements by credentialed Egyptologists. He's only doing it to make his data look more impressive.

Taking it another step further, Heron tells us that these measurements of the Great Pyramid can be used to successfully "square the circle" -- and he even provides the equations to demonstrate it. First, he shows how the pyramid incorporates an approximation of the value for Pi (3.14159 -- note: Heron's version is rounded to 3.1416) Then, he does some more fancy math to make it seem as though the perimeter of the pyramid's base equals the diameter of a circle that is twice the height of the pyramid. Here are the exact equations provided by Heron:

1) 365.242 x 4 = 14609.68
2) 232.52 x 2 x 3.1416 = 14609.68

But there are some BIG problems with the equations that Heron has given to us. First, he is sloppy and has misplaced the decimal point TWICE. If you actually care to check the calculation, you will find that the first answer should be 1460.968. The second equation actually results in a more precise value of 1460.9696. Heron has therefore rounded the six up (but to a value of 8 instead of 7!!!) to make it appear as if the final answers match precisely. But he makes it even worse because that's not the only place where he rounded. Recall that I said he rounded the value for Pi up to 3.1416 (instead of the familiar 3.14159). Heron purposely rounded this value UP because the normal value would make the result for his second equation come out to 1460.965. But since he wants to have this answer "match" his first equation, he needs an excuse to round the value up -- and he gets it by using the rounded value of Pi.

I know that this might sound like I am being too critical of the man, but I'm not. I think that this truly shows how sloppy of a job he has done with his research. On top of that, his padding of these numbers to make them match suggests that he is purposely misleading his readers. Please remember, he is telling his readers that there is such remarkable precision built into the Great Pyramid that no human could have constructed it -- it MUST have been that nasty old Satan! Heron uses these "facts" and math equations to "prove" his argument and bases his whole theory around them. But if those building blocks are all wrong then so is the bulk of the theory proposed by his book.

There are many other mistakes I found while reading Heron's work, such as when he refers to the word "Lucifer" as being HEBREW for "morning star" -- when it is actually LATIN (the Hebrew term would be "Helel ben Shakar"). I have elaborated upon the above material within an appendix of my own book, Gateway of the Gods, where I also demonstrate flaws in the research of another popular author, Zecharia Sitchin. However, I'm not going to get into all of that here because it's not the purpose of this review, nor do I want this to seem as though I am merely trying to promote my own book. Suffice to say that I think the above should demonstrate reason enough why readers should avoid this book and save their money.

Eye opening book. September 30, 2007
14 out of 21 found this review helpful

This book had a few earlier reviews that left me feeling skeptical before buying and reading it myself. Now that I have read it I feel it is a great tool for showing what very could have happened in our Earths history.
The author did a very good job of explaining the content and left me with no questions about it. I personally believe what he researched and authored is very likely the truth. It gave me the "proof" of knowing that our world was indeed created by an awesome God. The fallen angels who corrupted Gods perfect creation by breeding the half man-half angel "Nephilim" really makes it all come together.
The last part of the book emphasizes a relationship with our creator God (Yeshua) aka. Jesus. That is the best part. Only when we recognise that we ourselves are corrupt in the heart and rebel against God, do we finally understand the need for a savior (Jesus). The good part is that what he did on the cross paid for all our rebellious sin. All we have to do is accept it for ourselves freely.

I recomend this book highly.

A must read February 1, 2007
11 out of 16 found this review helpful

I recently read The Nephilim and the Pyramid of the Apocalypse by Patrick Heron and I have to say I disagree completely with Mr. Hines' review below.As an engineer, I found Heron's book compelling and the arguments and research well founded and logical. Indeed I could hardly put the book down and it is the best non fiction thriller I have ever read.
Mr. Hines in his review picks out one miniscule piece of math contained in the opening pages and forgets the rest of the evidence in the next 239 pages thus ignoring the bigger picture. Also, the maths he contends with are those of an architect, Clarence Larkin!!
Heron's book is radical and a total jaw-dropper. I found it riveting and a complete page-turner.
I see Mr. Hines is trying to compete with The Nephilim and perhaps this explains his petty and narrow minded review. Don't let it put you off.
