Giant Mountain Men
  • Be strong and of a good courage be not afraid,
    neither be thou dismayed for the Lord thy God is
    with thee withersoever thou goest. Joshua 19

The Facts, Please!
  • A Giant human being is one who is very much
    larger than normal. Some giants may be taller
    than nine feet.
  • Many people grow extra tall naturally (like a
    seven-foot basketball star, for instance.) A real
    giant has a condition known as gigantism or
    giantism. It begins in childhood and is caused
    when the growth hormones in the pituitary gland
    are overactive. Today there are treatments for
    this condition.

More Facts, Please!
  • Giants are mentioned in the Bible in several
    places. There were giants in the land in Noahs
    day. A great many giants lived in a valley in
    Canaan when Abraham live there. The last of
    these valley giants was Og, king of Bashan. He
    had an iron bed that was 13 feet long and 6 feet
    wide.
  • Later, when the Israelites came to the border of
    Canaan, they were afraid to go into their land
    because of the giants there. King Davids
    soldiers killed four giants. One of them had six
    fingers on each hand and six toes on each foot.

More Facts, Please!
  • Giants were not only huge in size, they had great
    strength. Thats why ordinary size men were
    afraid to fight them. Those who did go against
    them-like young David-trusted God to help them.
    They knew God is more powerful than any giant.
