If you’ve ever wondered whether biblical giants were real, Perry Stone’s latest video might give you something to think about.
Reporting from the Pool of Siloam, an ancient site in Jerusalem where Jesus healed a blind man (John 9), Stone explores stunning new archaeological discoveries—including a 3,700-year-old wall so massive that it raises serious questions about how it was built.
“This was built in the Canaanite time,” Stone explains, standing before a 26-foot-high wall unearthed in the City of David excavation site. But it’s not just the height that’s impressive—it’s the sheer size of the stones used to construct it. “There were stones on that wall that were so big… how did they engineer this? How did they move this here?”

This isn’t just an architectural mystery—it’s a biblical one. Stone connects the massive structures to the Rephaim, a term used in Scripture to describe a race of giants. “The Valley of the Rephaim is on the west side of Jerusalem… and Rephaim is a Hebrew word for giants,” he points out.
The Bible often speaks of giant clans in ancient Canaan, including the Anakim, Zamzummim and Nephilim (Deut. 2:10-11; Gen. 6:4).
For Stone, this wall is more than an impressive feat of engineering—it’s potential evidence of the giants the Bible describes. “This is evidence that giants existed that were a part of building these cities, these walls back in the Canaanite time.”
The biblical references to giants aren’t limited to vague descriptions, either. Stone reminds viewers of Goliath, who stood “about eight and a half feet tall,” and Og, the king of Bashan, whose bed measured “eighteen feet tall by four feet wide.”
While skeptics often dismiss these figures as exaggerations, Stone sees them as part of a much larger historical narrative, one that may be etched in the very foundations of Jerusalem.
“This is not just here,” he adds. “In the Golan Heights, you have the dolmens, which had to be put together… by giant men.” Dolmens—huge stone burial structures scattered across Israel—have long puzzled archaeologists, with some suggesting they required builders of extraordinary size and strength.
The discoveries at the Pool of Siloam and the City of David excavation only add fuel to the fire. If ancient people without modern machinery built these colossal walls, could the giants of the Bible have been the ones who lifted the stones? Stone thinks the evidence speaks for itself.
For those who believe in the accuracy of Scripture, this latest archaeological find is a powerful reminder: the Bible’s history is real, and its giants may have left their mark on the very stones of Jerusalem.
