The early Christian Fathers such as Jude respected 'The Book of
Enoch', as did the Essenes of Qumran. However, by the fourth
century AD the text was considered heretical and all extant copies
were destroyed. It was not until the 18th century that a surviving
Ethiopic version was found, and its ideas and beliefs could once
again be made known to the world. 'The Book of Enoch' tells of the
enigmatic Watchers, fallen angels who breed with human females and
give rise to the race of Nephilim, evil giants who wreak havoc on
earth, and are destroyed by The Flood. Following sections describe
Visions, of a messiah-like Son of God, of the
Astronomical/Spiritual make-up of the Universe, and of the
apocalyptic Final Judgment to be visited upon evil-doers. The R H
Charles translation remains the standard English version of the
text and is presented here in its entirety.
