Chapters 1-36 The Parable of Enoch

Introduction to the Book of Enoch


We first learn of Enoch in Genesis 5 but it leaves us with questions. Hebrews 11 has the answers and Jude quotes Enoch! How did Jude come to know the words of Enoch? he! are not in the "cri#tures. he answer is $es% is he &ook of Enoch. ' book which is actuall! quoted not onl! b! Jude% but also James the natural brother of $'H"H('. he quote in )Jude 1*+15, - )1 Enoch 1./, is as follows. 01n the seventh )2eneration, from 'dam Enoch also #ro#hesied these thin2s% sa!in2. 3&ehold% the "overei2n came with his kodesh m!riads% to e4ecute 5ud2ment on all% and to convict all the un2odl! of all their un2odl! deeds which the! have committed in such an un2odl! wa!% and of all the harsh thin2s which un2odl! sinners s#oke a2ainst him3.0 What is the &ook of Enoch and where did it come from? Enoch was the 2randfather of 6oah. he &ook of Enoch cha#ter 78.1 0'nd after that m! 2randfather Enoch 2ave me all the secrets in the book and in the #arables which had been 2iven to him% and he #ut them to2ether for me in the words of the book of the #arables.0 his makes it #ossible for the &ook to have survived the flood as its not too hard to acce#t that 6oah would have taken his Great Grandfathers writin2s with him onto the ark. he &ook of Enoch was e4tant centuries before the birth of $'H"H(' 9essiah and !et is considered b! man! to be more 9essianic in its theolo2! than Jewish. 1t was considered scri#ture b! man! earl! 9essianic 'ssemblies. he earliest literature of the so+called 09essianic :athers0 is filled with references to this m!sterious book. he earl! second centur! 0E#istle of &arnabus0 makes much use of the &ook of Enoch. "econd and hird ;entur! men like Justin 9art!r% 1renaeus% <ri2in and ;lement of 'le4andria all make use of the &ook of Enoch. ertullian )17=+>?= ;.E, even called the &ook of Enoch 0Hol! "cri#ture0. he Ethio#ic ;hurch even added the &ook of Enoch to its official canon. 1t was widel! known and read the first three centuries after $'H"H(' 9essiah. his and man! other books became discredited after the ;ouncil of @aodicea. 'nd bein2 under ban of the authorities% afterwards it 2raduall! #assed out of circulation. 't about the time of the Arotestant Beformation% there came to be a renewed interest in the &ook of Enoch which had lon2 since been lost to the modern world. &! the late 1*==3s rumors be2an to s#read that somewhere a co#! of the lon2 lost &ook of Enoch mi2ht still e4ist. Curin2 this time man! books arose claimin2 to be the lon2 lost book and were later found to be for2eries. he return of the lon2 lost &ook of Enoch to the modern western world is credited to the famous e4#lorer James &ruce% who in 1DD? returned from si4 !ears in 'b!ssinia with three Ethio#ic co#ies of the lost book. 1n 18>1 Bichard @aurence #ublished the first En2lish translation. he famous B.H. ;harles edition was #ublished in 1/1>. 1n the followin2 !ears several #ortions of the Greek te4t surfaced. hen with the discover! of cave * of the Cead "ea "crolls% seven fra2mentar! co#ies of the 'ramaic te4t were discovered. he &ook of Enoch is divided into five basic #arts% but it is the he &ook of Aarables )?D+D1, which 2ives scholars the most trouble for it is #rimaril! concerned with a fi2ure called 0the messiah0E 0the ri2hteous one0E 0the chosen one0 and 0the son of man.0 ;ha#ter *7.1+> F1G here 1 beheld the 'ncient of da!s whose head was like white wool% and with him another% whose countenance resembled that of a man. His countenance was full of ma5est!% like that of one of the kodesh an2els. hen 1 inquired of one of the an2els% who went with me% and who showed me ever! secret thin2% concernin2 this "on of manE who he wasE whence he wasE and wh! he accom#anied the 'ncient of da!s. F>G He answered and said to me% his is the "on of man% to whom ri2hteousness belon2sE with whom ri2hteousness has dwealtE and who will reveal all the treasures of that which is concealed. for $'HWEH of s#irits has chosen himE and his #ortion has sur#assed all before $'HWEH of s#irits in everlastin2 u#ri2htness.0

he o#enin2 verses of the &ook of Enoch tell us that the revelations in this book were not meant for Enoch3s 2eneration% rather a remote 2eneration% and of course the book would make more sense to the 2enerations after $'H"H(' 9essiah. We know that the earl! 9essianic 'ssemblies made use of the &ook of Enoch% but it was then all but lost% until recent times. Aerha#s this book was meant for our 2eneration% as it is widel! available toda! after bein2 concealed for over a millennia. )Enoch 1.1+?, he words of the blessin2 of Enoch% wherewith he blessed the elect and ri2hteous% who will be livin2 in the da! of tribulation% when all the wicked and the ones that know not $'HWEH and $'H"H(' are to be removed. 'nd he took u# his #arable and said +Enoch a ri2hteous man% whose e!es were o#ened b! $'HWEH% saw the vision of the Hodesh <ne in the heavens% which the malakim showed me% and from them 1 heard ever!thin2% and from them 1 understood as 1 saw% but not for this 2eneration% but for a remote one which is for to come. Enoch in Hebrew is Hanoch
