Fallen angels are angels who have been expelled from heaven. The literal term "fallen angel" does not appear in any Abrahamic religious text, but is used to describe angels cast out of heaven or angels who have sinned. Such angels often tempt humans to sin.
Fountain of the Fallen Angel (1877), by Ricardo Bellver. Retiro Park, Madrid, Spain
The idea of fallen angels derives from the Book of Enoch, a Jewish pseudepigraph, or the hypothesis that the "sons of God" (בני האלוהים) mentioned in Genesis 6:1-4 are angels. In the period immediately preceding the composition of the New Testament, some sects of Judaism, as well as many Christian church fathers, identified these same "sons of God" as fallen angels. During the late Second Temple period, biblical giants were sometimes seen as the monstrous offspring of fallen angels and human women. In such stories, God sends the Great Flood to purge the world of these creatures; their bodies are destroyed, but their particular souls survive, subsequently roaming the earth like demons. Rabbinic Judaism and Christian authorities after the third century rejected the Enochian writings and the notion of illicit union between angels and women producing giants. Christian theology indicates that the sins of the fallen angels occurred before the beginning of human history. Accordingly, the fallen angels were identified with those led by Lucifer in rebellion against God, also equated with demons.

The Nephilim (/ˈnɛfɪˌlɪm/; Hebrew: נְפִילִים Nəfīlīm) are mysterious beings or people in the Hebrew Bible who are described as being tall and strong.[1] The word Nephilim is loosely translated as giants in most translations of the Hebrew Bible, but is not translated in others. Some Jewish explanations interpret them as hybrid sons of fallen angels (demigods).
The primary reference to them is found in Genesis 6:1-4, but the passage is ambiguous and the identity of the Nephilim is disputed.[1][2] According to the Book of Numbers 13:33, a report was given from ten of the twelve spies that they were inhabiting Canaan at the time of the Israelite conquest of Canaan.

The Book of Enoch (also 1 Enoch; Hebrew: סֵפֶר חֲנוֹךְ, Sēfer Ḥănōḵ; Ge'ez: መጽሐፈ ሄኖክ, Maṣḥafa Hēnok) is an ancient Hebrew apocalyptic religious text, attributed by tradition to patriarch. Enoch who was the great-grandfather of Noah.[1][2] The Book of Enoch contains unique material on the origins of demons and the Nephilim, why certain angels fell from heaven, an explanation of why the Genesis flood was morally necessary, and a prophetic exposition of the millennial reign of the Messiah . Three books are traditionally attributed to Enoch, including the separate works 2 Enoch and 3 Enoch. None of the three books are considered canonical scripture by the majority of Jewish or Christian churches.

The Bible (from the Koine Greek τὰ βιβλία, tà biblía, "the books") is a collection of religious texts or scriptures considered sacred in Christianity, Judaism, Samaritanism, Islam and many other religions. The Bible is an anthology – a compilation of texts in various forms – originally written in Hebrew, Aramaic and Koine Greek. These texts include instructions, stories, poetry, and prophecies, among other genres. The collection of documents accepted as part of the Bible by a particular religious tradition or community is called the biblical canon. Believers in the Bible generally view it as a product of divine inspiration, but how they understand what that means and interpret the text can vary.
