Lamech tells his wives that he has killed a man4.23-24
The sons of the God desire the daughters of the man and take wives from whomever they choose6.1-2
The offspring of the sons of the God and the daughters of the man were the Nephilim (both before and after the Flood), the mighty men of renown from antiquity
YHWH is displeased with this turn of events6.3
While His Spirit will not always strive with the man, for he is flesh, nevertheless, YHWH limits man's days to 120 years
What YHWH meant by this statement is not clear. He might have established a 120 year life span for hä@dhäm (which did not take effect until after the Flood), or, He might have set a deadline of 120 yrs until the Flood (in which case He made this statement a lot later in the Story), or both, or, He might have been referring to the Nephilim.
