There is one thing that no one mentions, they were as tall as a cedar tree. The trees of Lebanon grew to 100 ft. Or more. So how tall were theses giants?? I know of two mention, Og being close to 13 ft. and Goliath 9 ' 6 " . I know there is no other mention of there hight. But when you look at all the ancient monuments, I can 't help but wonder if theses sons of Anak didn 't grow as big as a cedar.
