Who was Enoch?
Enoch was the seventh generation from Adam, the first of men to be created. Holy Scripture tells us that Enoch lived 365 years and then was translated or caught up without dying, and even though he was a sinner he pleased the Creator with his lifestyle. Enoch fathered Methuselah who lived 969 years and was the grandfather of Noah. He died seven days before the great flood and his name means bringer of death.
Tribulation Period
The book of Enoch begins by addressing those in the Great Tribulation period. It has many prophecies about Noah’s great flood and the coming fiery judgments, and the two comings of the Messiah.
Time’s window
Enoch prophesies a window of time in which the Second Coming will occur and states that there will be 23 Israeli Prime Ministers ruling in 58 terms from 1948 to the beginning of the Tribulation.
genetic experiments
Enoch records the history of the angels that fell in the time of Jared, the father of Enoch. He testifies to his marriages with earthly women and his genetic experiments. His commentary includes a previously unknown chapter from the Dead Sea Scrolls that actually explains how they genetically manipulated him.
Ancient Book of Zohar
The Jews mention Enoch in their Zohar book which elaborates on the attributes of God; in the Targum of Jonathan he is called the first great scribe. Other writers credit him with the invention of letters and the writing of books.
Enoch transmitted his writings
Enoch passed his books to Noah, who passed them to Shem, who hid them in the city of Salem. He was eventually found buried with 972 texts identified as the Dead Sea Scrolls. The texts carry religious, linguistic, and historical significance including the earliest known books written by man.
conclusion
The book of Enoch is quoted by church fathers and rabbis since the first century. His book talks about the signs of the end times, the history of the Nephilim, who are the Sons of God, and the genetic experiments until 2012. It is really an interesting read because of the facts that it expands on his views of the prophecies of Enoch, who he was, and why he might be one of the two returning witnesses in the Great Tribulation. I give it four stars out of five.
