The Book of Enoch (audiobook) 1 Apk

The Book of Enoch, is an ancient Jewish work thought to have been originally composed by Enoch, the grandfather of Noah. Estimates vary on the actual date it was written. Fragments of the text, were found in the Qumran caves in 1948.

Enoch, was of the 7th generation from Adam and prophesied about the judgments on mankind. Enoch says his words were not for his generation but for a coming "generation of elect and righteous people," far in the future who would live in the day of tribulation when all the wicked and godless are taken away." He compiled his visions and prophecies into a book of parables and passed these secrets on to Noah (Enoch 68:1).

Among the many secrets passed down, Enoch gives a more detailed account of the relationship between the fallen angels (known as the watchers) and the daughters of men in Genesis 6:2-4. He also reveals the secrets of the luminaries and the weather and ends with a prophesy about the condition of mankind.

The book of Enoch is included in the Ethiopian Orthodox Bible and is quoted by Jude in the New Testament.
