No, not exactly. The book of Enoch however explains that the "sons of God" (genesis 6) were actually angels that left heaven and came to earth. They taught humans forbidden knowledge including magic. Since then fallen angels have continued to teach magic.In the bible does it say how humans learned magic?Because i have looked and don't see it.

Does it matter? Magic is a deception to keep people from God.
In the New testament there is also a word for sorcery which is related to drug abuse.

Weren't those people all destroyed in the flood?No, not exactly. The book of Enoch however explains that the "sons of God" (genesis 6) were actually angels that left heaven and came to earth.

The Bible does indicate that these were practices of the nations, so people who did not worship Jehovah learned it from somewhere, and it makes sense to me that since God condemned it along with spiritistic practices, then those who did not worship Jehovah, learned it from fallen angels. Deuteronomy 18:9-14In the bible does it say how humans learned magic?Because i have looked and don't see it.
Yes they were. However in Genesis 6:4 it says "and also after that" so it is indicating in my opinion that there were also giants after the flood. Which means that another group of angels came down again afterwards and did it again. This explains why the people saw "nephilim" in the promised land and reported this to Moses. Then you have giants such as Og king of Bashan and the "sons of Anak" among others mentioned.Weren't those people all destroyed in the flood?
Surely Noah sons did not practice magic.
Yes so they say; but that doesn't mean there isn't truth to it. In my opinion the people who wrote the book of Enoch must have known some things we don't know now. So there is value in reading it. But of course we can't put it on equal footing with the Bible. I use it to supplement my understanding of the Bible. Not to replace it.The Book of Enoch was written from 300 to 100 BC and its just a collection of folktales and legends. Its not canon for Jews or Christians.
The forbidden fruit is identified as an apple in the scriptures. SOS 2:3, SOS 2:5, SOS 7:8, SOS 8:5. Proverbs 25:11It may very well have been that the forbidden fruit in the garden of eden was an opium poppy, considering that opium is from the very region where the scriptures were written.
