Synopsis

When fragments of the Book of Enoch were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls, it was realized that this was a very ancient text, part of the Jewish heritage of the first Christians. This translation by R.H. Charles (1855-1931) remains the standard edition of the text in English.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

It ifl tinnecessary to apologize for the sppe ranca of this book, as Bome each work has long been a desideratam to ficbolan. A knowledge of noch is iodiapensable to New Teetament stndente. It would be beet perhapa, at the onteet, to mention briefiy the features in which this edition diifers from previooa editions of EuooL I. First, the Translation is made, in the main, from a British Mnseum MS. which is incomparably better than those on whieh Professor Dillmann s Ethioplo text is based. Bat as this MS., which I designate Q, is still unpublished, I have followed Dillmaim Btext, and, in every instance in whieh I have deviated from it in deference to 0or other British Maseum MSS., I have given in my Critical Notes the Ethiopic reading adopted, and Uiat as a rule as it stands in the MS. followed, though it may be vieione alike in orthography and syntax. These instances are in all about six hundred. It will be remarked tiiat on p. 4they are said to be three hundred and twenty-two. The explanation of this disorepanoy is to be found in the fact that the bulk of this book was already in type when the Qizeh MS. was published by M. Bouriant, and that I have allowed the Introduction to remain as it already stood before the publication of this Greek

Présentation de l'éditeur

Genesis 5:24 And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. Hebrews 11:5 By faith Enoch was translated, that he should not see death, and was not found, because God had translated him: For before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God. Jude 1:14 And Enoch also, the seuenth from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord commeth with ten thousands of his Saints, Jude 1:15 To execute iudgement vpon all, and to conuince all that are vngodly among them, of all their vngodly deeds which they haue vngodly committed, and of all their heard speaches, which vngodly sinners haue spoken against him. The quote which Enoch makes in Jude 14 is found within the early portions of The Book of Enoch... Therefore we may conclude that the disciples of Jesus The Christ studied The Book of Enoch. This is the most common explanation to how they were able to quote Enoch.
