bereishit 6:4-5, b'nei ha-elohim lay with the daughters of men... dunno why b'nei would be exclusively male here
it really depends on what retconned continuity we're talking about, like if "Elohim" is "God" then these are angels

but if they're still "children of the gods"! well, there's never been a "the gods" where dick moves weren't bog standard

i'm sure in the monotheistic continuity we have to posit that the grigori fell through their lust for mortal women or whatever
-
and naturally we decided to call their kids the fallen ones instead of them in that circumstance, like you do

tbh you have to jump through so many weird hoops to force monotheism onto this language you're just making it all up as you go
-
the core text is practically Hellenic though: godspawn got busy and that's where the heroes of yore came from kiddo
