Enoch



Enoch is a figure in Biblical literature. In addition to an appearance in the Book of Genesis of the Hebrew Bible, Enoch is the subject of many Jewish and Christian writings.

Enoch was the son of Jared (Genesis 5:19–21), the father of Methuselah, and the great-grandfather of Noah. The Bible says that Enoch lived 365 years before he was taken by God. The text reads that Enoch "walked with God: and he was no more; for God took him" (Gen 5:21–24). This Enoch is not to be confused with Cain's son Enoch (Genesis 4:17). The Christian New Testament has three references to Enoch from the lineage of Seth (Luke 3:37, Hebrews 11:5, Jude 1:14–15).

Three extensive apocryphal works are attributed to Enoch:

“Enoch 39:4 There I saw another vision; I saw the habitations and resting places of the saints. There my eyes beheld their habitations with the angels, and their resting places with the holy ones. They were entreating, supplicating, and praying for the sons of men; while righteousness like water flowed before them, and mercy like dew was scattered over the earth. And thus shall it be with them for ever and for ever.”
Enoch, The Book of Enoch

“Angels were actually “messengers.” “Angel” is transliteration of the Greek word, and not a translation. To “transliterate” (noun, “transliteration”) means to put the Greek letters into English letters. “Angels” is the transliteration but the meaning is “messengers.” The Hebrew word for “angel” actually means one dispatched as a deputy. The word occurs for an ordinary messenger as well as a supernatural messenger. (3)”
Enoch, Complete Books of Enoch: 1 Enoch (First Book of Enoch), 2 Enoch (Secrets of Enoch), 3 Enoch (Hebrew Book of Enoch): NEW Translation NOT R.H. Charles version

“3And I, Enoch, I alone saw the likeness of the end of all things. Nor did any human being see it, as I saw”
Enoch, The Book of Enoch
