Enoch is a pivotal figure in biblical literature, celebrated for his exceptional walk with God. Scripture suggests he lived for 365 years before being taken by the divine, highlighting his piety and closeness to God. Beyond his mentions in the Hebrew Bible, Enoch is the subject of numerous Jewish and Christian writings, including extensive apocryphal works. These texts portray him as a guardian of celestial treasures and a chief archangel, executing divine will and revealing the mysteries of the cosmos. Esoteric literature even identifies him with the Archangel Metatron, a communicator of God's word and revealer of divine secrets.
This book is a translation of the Book of Enoch, an ancient Jewish apocalyptic text that was excluded from the Jewish and Christian biblical canons. The book provides insight into the beliefs and practices of ancient Judaism and early Christianity, and has been the subject of much scholarly debate.
