I prefer to think of the ‘alien’ influences as spiritual entities. The confusion, IMHO, comes from the evolutionary religious nature of the Old Testament itself. The concepts are lifted from older, non-Semitic origins, whereas the whole of it reads more like a story written for the benefit of one group. And much of that story is about a racial conquest.
Ultimately, I believe the OT is largely mortal scaffolding for the transcendent teaching to come in the New. Again, and IMHO, the OT story emerges from that of ‘the old gods’ - likely the Fallen - and the future may find it necessary to liberate the New from the milestone of the Old. The irreconcilable differences continue to serve as an impediment to greater understanding.

One can torrent all his interviews that took place on the byte show.
If you read Mario Biglino work, one thing that is interesting, is first, the old testament is a fabrication spanning many centuries, like the Book of Elijah, that was written by at last 3 people, in 300 years, each one making aditions, and modifications to the basic text.
The most surprising thing extracted from his work is that the Old Testament talks about physical beings, that even drink a form of alcohol and like the smell of burning meat because it produces a calming effect on them, like a drug, or an opioid. There is not even the concept of “God”, in Hebrew, what is a shock to know, so the Old testament could never prepare anyone for anything transcendent, because there is nothing in it even remotely related to any kind of transcendent topic, or being.
It tells the tale of very physical beings, and what is more interestig, he tells that all the prophecies of the Old Testament where written AFTER the fact, so they are not really prophecies, wich makes the premise of new testament invalid, because many christians uses the prophecies of the Old Testament, as a proof that Jesus is the Messiah and the expected Son of God.
There a lot of books written showing how the Jesus figure fulfills every single Old Testament prophecy, and they are all based in lies. Biglino shows that both Jewish Rabbinical academia, and Catolic Church academia agree in this aspect, they only don´t tell the masses, because this would destroy their faith, and consequently, the structure of power stabilished that greatly benefits those at the top.
The new testament is as fabrication, built upon lies and false translations of the Old, if you look to it just from an archeological point of view, just with the paper documents, whitout any theological distortion or interpretation, and the work of the different christian sects from the years 0AD to the 400AD, of wich the Catholic Church is just one of many groups organized to profit from the crime.
I´m studying everything that he has produced, i will need to even study italian, since the majority of his books are not in english.
About the alien hypothesis, and the spiritual entities, the hebrew text is very explicity about it´s non spiritual nature. All the terms, when read in the way that the words would originally have, wich was the work that biglino did for 10 years as a translator for the Vatican, are all about very physical events, ad very physical beings, even describing consequences that only physical encounters can provoke.
But as he says, everyone is free to believe in anything that he/she wants, even in with is not objectively writen. So the alien hypothesis would be more in tune with the real text.
This is his opinion on it, not mine.

Interesting.
It’s easy to lose faith in the work if one does not respond to the transcendent. This challenge confronting modern seekers is made more difficult by dogmatic interpretations.
As for aliens, IMO, that rabbit hole doesn’t have a bottom. Elohim /Annunaki, whatever, the mythologies of primitive men re surviving ‘knowledge’ could lead one way or the other - to the ‘men of renown’ or ET … or both. And I say this as someone who believes the universe is rich with life.
The more telling aspect of your text, however, is the perception or discovery of the ‘material’ nature of some of the OT. In that light, much of what is written becomes more an interpretation of power and appeasement than the transcendent. Which is where I’m at at this point. Scaffolding.
