The Books of Enoch

by Joseph B. Lumpkin

9 And he instructed mankind in writing with ink and paper, and thereby many sinned from eternity to eternity and until this day. 10 For men were not created for the purpose of confirming their good faith with pen and ink.

(Author’s note: The name of a person reveals their personality and power. There remains a ceremony to this day that if a person is on his deathbed a rabbi may change the person’s name to trick the Angel of Death so the person might escape his reaping, suggesting the Angel seeks by name.)

(Note: When speaking to God, Enoch “said within himself.” He did not have to speak aloud.)

The Shekina was an energy or substance that was protecting those who used it from illness, demons, and even bugs.
