Connection
The verses in
the Book of Enoch that describe flight or technology
1: 2
living in the day of
tribulation, when all the wicked and godless are to be removed. And he took up
his parable and said -Enoch a righteous man, whose eyes were opened by God, saw
the
vision of the
Holy One in the heavens,
which the angels showed me, and from them I heard everything, and from them I
understood as I saw, but not for this generation, but for a remote one which is
for to come.
1:4
And the eternal God will tread upon the earth, (even) on Mount Sinai, [And
appear from His camp] And appear in the strength of His might
from the heaven of heavens.
1:6
And the high mountains shall be shaken, And the high hills shall be made low,
And
shall melt like wax before the flame
1:9
And behold! He
cometh with ten thousands of His holy ones To execute judgement
upon all, And to destroy all the ungodly:And
to convict all flesh Of all the works of their ungodliness which they have
ungodly committed, And of all the hard things which ungodly sinners have spoken
against Him.
6:2
And the angels,
the children of the heaven,
saw and lusted after them, and said to one another: 'Come, let us choose us
wives from among the children of men.
9:1
And then Michael, Uriel,
Raphael, and Gabriel
looked down from heaven
and saw much blood being
2 shed upon the earth, and all lawlessness being wrought upon the earth.
And they said one to another: 'The earth made without inhabitant cries the voice
of their cryingst
up to the gates of heaven.
10:3 upon the whole earth, and will destroy all that is on it. And now
instruct him that he may escape 4 and his seed may be preserved for all
the generations of the world. And again the Lord said to Raphael: Bind Azazel
hand and foot, and cast him into the darkness:
and make an opening
5 in the desert, which is in Dudael, and cast him therein. And place upon
him rough and jagged rocks, and cover him with darkness, and let him abide there
for ever, and cover his face that he may
12: 3
And I Enoch was blessing the Lord of majesty and the King of the ages,
and lo! the Watchers
4
called me -Enoch the scribe- and said to me: 'Enoch, thou scribe of
righteousness, go, declare to the Watchers of the heaven
who have left the high
heaven, the holy eternal place,
and have defiled themselves with women,
14:5
has been finally passed upon you: yea (your petition) will not be granted unto
you. And from henceforth
you shall not ascend into heaven unto all eternity,
and in bonds of the earth the decree written. And the vision was shown to
me thus: Behold, in the vision
clouds invited me
and a mist summoned me, and the
course of the stars and the lightnings sped
and hastened me, and the winds in
9
the vision caused me to fly and lifted me upward, and bore me into
heaven. And I went in till I drew nigh to
a wall which is built of crystals and
surrounded by tongues of fire: and it began to affright 10 me. And I went into the
tongues of fire and drew nigh to
a large house
which was built of crystals: and the walls of the house were like a
1
tesselated floor (made)
of crystals, and
its groundwork
was 11
of crystal.
Its ceiling was
like the path of the stars
and the
lightnings, and between them were 12
fiery
cherubim, and their
heaven was (clear as) water.
A flaming fire surrounded the walls,
and its 13
portals blazed with fire.
And I entered into that house, and
it was hot as fire and cold as ice:
there 14
were no delights of life therein: fear covered me, and trembling got
hold upon me. And as I quaked 15 and trembled, I fell upon my face. And I beheld a vision, And lo!
there was a second house, greater 16 than the former, and the entire portal stood open before me, and it
was built of flames of fire. And in every respect it
so excelled in splendour
and magnificence and extent that I cannot describe to
17 you its splendour
and its extent. And
its floor was of fire,
and above it
were lightnings and
the path 18
of the stars, and its
ceiling also was flaming fire.
And I looked and saw therein
a lofty throne: its appearance was as
crystal, and
the wheels thereof as
the shining sun,
and there was the vision of 19 cherubim.
And from
underneath the throne came streams of flaming fire so that I could not look 20 thereon.
And the Great Glory sat thereon, and His
raiment shone more brightly than the sun and
21
was whiter than any snow. None of the angels could enter and could
behold His face by reason
22 of the
magnificence and glory and no flesh could behold Him. The
flaming fire was round about Him, and a great fire stood before Him,
and none around could draw nigh Him: ten thousand times 23 ten thousand (stood) before Him, yet He needed no counselor. And the
most holy ones who were

tessellate, to pave with
tessera, 1 : a small
tablet (as of wood, bone, or ivory) used by the ancient Romans as a ticket,
tally, voucher, or means of identification 2 : a small piece (as
of marble, glass, or tile) used in mosaic work.
